A completed cit/s Storm Water Standard Questionnaire, E-34 Form will be required as part of the discretionary application.

If this project qualifies as a "Standard" project, a completed city's Standard Project Requirement Checklist, E-36 Form will be required as part of the discretionary application. If this project qualifies as a "Priority Development Project", then a preliminary Storm Water Quality Management Plan per the city's SWQMP template, E-3S Form, will be required as part of the discretionary application.
