Frequently Answered Questions About Fact Finding Requests
•
What is a Fact Finding request?
A Fact Finding request is a public request for basic development information regarding development
standards for a particular piece of property.
•
Is there a fee for a Fact Finding request?
Yes. A fee of $300 is charged for a written response. A fee of $600 is charged for a meeting. The fee is due
at the time the request is submitted.
•
What type of information can be requested via a Fact Finding Application?
A Fact Finding request is designed to provide basic information which, though not difficult for staff to research,
is not readily available through self-help outlets such as the Internet.
Examples: How much ROW will I have to dedicate if I choose to develop my property? Are there any other
easement dedications required if I develop my property? Are sewer and water services available to serve my
property, and if so, is capacity available for my proposed development? If I want to change the use on my
property, what city processes and/or permits are required to make this change? Is the existing parking
provided in a shopping center sufficient, or will I need to provide additional parking when I locate my new
business there?
•
How is this request different from a DSD Preapplication meeting?
A Fact Finding is different from a Preapplication meeting in that staff do not conduct a complete review
of a proposed site plan as part of a Fact Finding. Only the questions submitted can be answered. A
Preapplication meeting is required to obtain a complete review of a detailed site plan proposal. If your Fact
Finding request is detailed enough to submit for a pre-application meeting, you will be encouraged to do so.
Also, requests for approval of non-standard details (such as driveway, gated-entry designs, or street width
dimensions which are not consistent with published City standards) cannot be reviewed or approved as part
of a Fact Finding.
•
Will I get to meet with staff to discuss my Fact Finding request?
Yes, if you choose that option when you make your request and pay the additional fee (if applicable). There
are two types of Fact-Finding requests: A) written responses to specific questions; and B) written responses
plus a face-to-face discussion with staff.
•
Do I need to file for a DSD Preapplication meeting if I’ve submitted a Fact-Finding application?
Yes, a Fact Finding request does not replace the required Preapplication meeting. However, it may be
possible to request a Combined Preapplication/Preliminary Review, which is further explained in a separate
document. Please note that small commercial or industrial projects may not require a Preapplication
nd
submittal. Contact Minor Commercial Review staff at Counter 6, 2
Floor, Development Services, 200 West
Washington Street, for further information.
•
Are there free services available?
nd
Yes, the 2
Floor Development Center has staff available to answer many types of development-related
questions without fee. Customers are allowed 15 minutes with each discipline; i.e., site, civil, traffic, etc. If
more time is needed, a Fact Finding Application will be required. Also, the Office of Customer Advocacy on
st
the 1
Floor provides consultation services related to adaptive reuse of existing buildings without fee.
