What is a Site Plan?

A site plan is a detailed architectural drawing that shows the proposed development of a property. It includes the building footprint, parking layout, landscaping, drainage, utilities, and compliance with local zoning and land development codes. In Austin, site plans must be reviewed and approved by the Development Services Department before construction can begin.

Site plan review ensures new development meets city standards for impervious cover, setbacks, tree preservation, water quality, and transportation impact. The process typically takes 30-90 days depending on project complexity.
