SUBJ: Project Narrative Form

We appreciate your interest in opening a business in the City of Rochester and would like to make
the application process as simple and pleasant as possible. The first step in our application process
is the project narrative form. This form serves as a means for you to communicate with the
Planning Department in writing about what you plan to do with the property. In addition, this
narrative allows the Planning Staff to determine what (if any) review procedure is appropriate.

Because this narrative is the primary means of determining the scope of the site review that will
need to take place, it is important that it contain enough information for a determination to be
made.

When you have completed the project narrative form, you can mail it to the address at the top of the
page, drop it off at the Planning Department, fax it to us at (603)330-0023, or e-mail it to:

your project. Please do not hesitate to contact our office at (603) 335-1338 should you have any
questions.
