All commercial developments and all major subdivisions require the review and approval by the Site Plan Review Committee before any building permits can be submitted for review, and before any preliminary or final plats can be reviewed by the P & Z Commission or City Council for approval. Noncommercial single-family residential developments only require the site and building permit review and approval from the Chief Building Official/Building Inspector. All residential developments are reviewed and approved in accordance with the residential building and development codes, the most current adopted editions. All commercial and industrial developments are reviewed and approved in accordance with the commercial building and development codes, the most current adopted editions. The following requirements shall apply to all commercial developments:
