1. This library is meant to be an aid to County staff in the processing land development projects. The library in itself does not mandate nor preclude the application of any condition on any project. None of the conditions contained herein shall be automatically applied verbatim to any project. Rather the application of each condition should be evaluated on a project-by-project basis to determine:
   
   
   1. if the condition is appropriate for the given project at all, and,
   2. if the condition’s standard language should be modified.
   
   
2. Both standard and non standard conditions shall state clearly and concisely:
   
   
   1. What is to be done (e.g., prepare traffic study).
   2. Who is to do it (e.g., developer).
   3. When is it to be done (e.g., prior to issuance of a building permit).
   4. Which manager is responsible for determining compliance.
   5. The mandatory nature of the condition by using terms such as "shall" rather than "should" or "try”.
      
   
   
3. Each condition shall be written so that staff can verify satisfaction of the condition and, if not satisfied, the project development process can be halted.
   
   
4. All conditions are normally to be applied at the appropriate level as indicated herein.
   
   
5. Conditions are normally to be applied only at one level of approval Conditions may be repeated at subsequent levels of approval where they would be informative to the applicant and/or County staff.
