(1) Conformance with the specified intent or criteria of certain applicable districts or use;

(3) Standards and provisions of the general plan or any applicable area plan; or
(4) Conformance with an applicable specific plan.
| To these ends, design review shall serve as a format to suggest any changes in the plans of such proposed buildings, structures and other improvements as may be deemed necessary to accomplish the purposes of this chapter. No plan shall be approved until the county is satisfied that such purposes will be accomplished. |
