Grading Plan - When a large amount of soil is to be removed as part of the project the Building department may request a grading plan.

Stormwater Pollution Plan - When the project is going to occur during the rainy season and a significant amount of grading is to occur (usually 5 acres), the Planning Department may require a Storm Drainage Plan to ensure run-off from the site does not result in dirt and other contaminates being washed into the public sewers or waterways.

Arborist Report - When building adjacent to Heritage trees or other native trees, the planning department may require an Arborist Report to determine if the project will impact the health of the tree.
