      (2)   The applicant shall provide the Planning Director with ten sets of a general development plan, which shall show existing and proposed lot lines, existing and proposed structures, parking lots, access drives and circulation, public and private utilities and easement and other pertinent site data. The plans shall be distributed to other city agencies involved in site development for review prior to the discussion meeting.
      (3)   At the discussion meeting, the city agencies shall provide feedback and recommendations for plan revisions to the applicant. The applicant will then have an opportunity to revise the plan to address the concerns and issues raised before making a formal submittal for Planning Commission review.
