Pre-Application Meeting Requirements

Prior to submitting an application for an entitlement in the City of Rocklin, a Pre-Application meeting must be held with the Development Services Manager.

Pre-Application Meeting Requirements

A pre-application meeting must be held with a staff planner prior to submitting most applications for planning entitlements and permits. The purpose of the pre-application meeting is to expedite application processing by enabling staff to work with the applicant to ensure that the officially submitted application materials are in the proper format and that the applicant understands the City of Rocklin’s goals, policies, and ordinances that may affect the project. Copies of these and other planning provisions are available at the applicant’s request.

Generally, two sets of preliminary plans and a written description of the proposed project should be brought by the applicant to the pre-application meeting. To schedule this meeting, please contact a staff planner at the Community Development Department by calling (916) 625-5160.

Applications will not be accepted without at least one pre-application meeting.
