For the first time in my planning career, I am responsible for reviewing that aspect of site plans so I'm wondering if anyone has a checklist or cheat sheet that I can review. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I was also thinking some sort of certification in the site plan application or rules and regs would be handy to have the designer confirm compliance or indicate if they'd be seeking variance.

All advice is appreciated! <br>
