When one (1) or more buildings are to be erected on a lot or tract which is zoned in such a manner as to permit the subject development as a use permitted by right, no construction permit shall be issued for the development, except for permitted single-family dwellings and their associated uses, without the approval of the Planning and Zoning Board of the adequacy of the internal on-site and external street circulation system, the design of the proposed landscaping and parking areas, and conformance with the Zoning Code. For the purpose of this Section only, "street" as defined, shall also include a public or private right-of-way or ways, including driveways, which provide vehicular access to abutting buildings, structures, and other improvements within or through a single lot or tract.

Three (3) copies of a development plan reflecting the nature of the proposed development shall be submitted to the Planning and Zoning Board along with such data and information which may be prescribed by that Board so as to assure the fullest practicable presentation of facts for analysis and for the permanent record. Said information shall include, but not be limited to, the following:

Upon approval of the submitted or revised development plan by the Planning and Zoning Board, application for construction permits and certificates of occupancy may take place at the office of the Director of Public Works.

No buildings, facilities, establishments or service concerns may occupy or use any portion of the subject tract until the required improvements are constructed or a performance bond or escrow agreement is posted covering construction of improvements as determined by the Planning and Zoning Board. If the development is to occur in sections, all improvements necessary to the proper operation and functioning of the section, even though same may be located outside the section, must be constructed and installed or a performance bond or escrow agreement posted, covering the estimated cost of improvements, as determined by the Planning and Zoning Board.

When a single-family detached residential dwelling, and/or an accessory building to a single-family dwelling is to be constructed, converted, reconstructed or structurally altered within a subdivision previously approved by the City Council or upon a lot of record, no construction permit shall be issued for the development without the approval of the Director of Public Works as to the conformance of said modification to all pertinent sections of this Chapter. Approval of the Planning and Zoning Board is not required for these uses.
