§ 9-5.2406 ESTABLISHMENT AND DEVELOPMENT.
   (A)   A Hillside Planned Development District may be established upon an application of the property owner or owners or upon the initiative of the city.
   (B)   Prior to the extensive preparation or submittal of detailed plans and information the applicant is required to submit a preliminary proposal to the Community Development Department so that the applicant may be informed of possible environ-mental concerns, General Plan and engineering requirements, circulation, siting and design criteria and other factors that may affect the proposal.
   (C)   A preliminary development plan for a proposed HPD District shall be submitted for Planning Commission approval. In considering the preliminary development plan at its public hearing, the Commission shall determine its appropriateness based on its ability to meet the purpose of this article. In no case shall approval of the preliminary develop-ment plan constitute an endorsement of the proposal's precise location, extent of uses, configuration of parcels or engineering feasibility.
   (D)   Once a preliminary development plan has been approved by the Planning Commission a final development plan may be submitted to the city. The review and approval procedure and findings for a final development plan for a HPD District shall be the same as that for a P-D District. If approved the property shall be rezoned as an HPD District and so indicated on the zoning map of the city.
   (E)   A use permit shall be required prior to the construction of any phase of an approved HPD District and shall follow the same review and approval procedure as outlined for P-D Districts.
   (F)   The required submittal materials for HPD District approval shall be as listed in the application package available from the Community Development Department.
