Development Review

The process in generally divided into three stages, the preCDR or idea phase, the CDR stage or engineering design phase, and the Site Work Permit or construction phase. The Pre-Comprehensive Development Review Process will provide an applicant the opportunity to ask questions and get feedback on a project from its inception from all agencies involved in the development process in Warren County. This will provide a single point of contact and an opportunity for better coordinated development and infrastructure and smoother approval processes. The Pre-CDR serves as a preliminary review of potential projects looking to obtain a Site Work Permit which is required prior to obtaining a building permit for larger projects. You will need a Site Development Plan and Site Work Permit for: any new development, including additions, that disturbs one acre or greater; any new development, including additions, that has any proposed or additional public improvements or infrastructure; any new development that requires a Traffic Impact Study; or any development part of a PUD.
