Applicants must submit a Development Plan for the entire property proposed for development. Approval of a development plan may be subject to the procedures for submittal, notification and public hearing established by city policy and M.S. § 15.99 except as modified in this section. No final approvals may be granted by the city to a Development Plan until all necessary approvals for an Environmental Impact Statement, Environmental Assessment Worksheet, Indirect Source Permit or a Comprehensive Plan amendment have been granted. An approved site plan is required before a building permit will be issued. The site plan may be reviewed and approved by the City Council. The City Council may attach such conditions to their actions as they determine necessary or convenient to better accomplish the purposes of this section. The City Council may base its actions regarding approval of a Development Plan on consideration of the following items:
(A) Compatibility of the proposed development plan with the Comprehensive Plan and this chapter;
(B) Effect of the proposed plans on the neighborhood in which it is to be located, including traffic, noise, glare, setbacks, buffers, and environmental impacts;
(C) Internal organization and adequacy of various uses or densities, circulation and parking facilities, urban services, recreation areas, open spaces, screening and landscaping;
(D) Other factors related to the project as the City Council deem relevant.
