The development review process implements the land use review processes defined in the City of Elk Grove Zoning Code and California State statues such as the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the Subdivision Map Act. The process commences with submittal of a Planning Application Form, as provided by and submitted to the Planning Division. Submittal requirements are listed on the application forms. Once the application is deemed complete for processing, the application is routed to other departments/agencies for comments, a public hearing is noticed and scheduled, and action taken on the request. Projects are evaluated for compliance with the City's General Plan, Zoning Ordinance, applicable Specific Plans and other related City Standards.
