Intent: The purpose of the pre-appiication meeting is to allow the subdivider the opportunity to share with the administrative land use authority (as defined by Utah Code Ann. § 10-9a-604.1) his/her proposed project plans, it also gives the administrative land use authority the opportunity to share with the subdivider the city's thoughts and ideas.
