The Pre-Development Meeting is intended to assist the applicant (developer, owner, architect, or contractor) by providing information early in the development process. Applicants will have a chance to meet with multiple departments at once to inquire about city requirements and processes related to their proposed project. These regulations include those related to development, zoning, platting, utilities, traffic, and infrastructure, as well as fire and building code requirements. It is highly recommended that the applicant provide as much information as possible in the form of exhibits, site plans, conceptual plans, etc. with the meeting application for staff to be able to provide relevant information for the project at the meeting.
A Pre-Development meeting is recommended for:
One (1) hour meetings are held on Thursdays (subject to availability). Applicants may choose to have a meeting in person at the City of Irving City Hall or virtually (Zoom). In-person meeting slots can be reserved for Thursdays at 9 a.m. and 10 a.m. Virtual time slots can be reserved for Thursdays at 2 p.m. and 3 p.m. Meeting reservations can only be made at least seven (7) days in advance of the next scheduled Thursday meeting date.
A Pre-Development meeting can be booked online using the online booking tool at City of Irving Pre-Development Meeting Application.
A staff person will contact you within 48 hours of your meeting confirmation to obtain any drawings or exhibits associated with your project.
