Anne,
Our policy is that an application is not considered "complete" until all of the materials: signed application,
fee and required plans, TIS, etc are submitted. Unless the applicant has made some arrangements with
us that one component, e.g.- a TIS where Eric Bracke has given his ok that it can be submitted a week
late, or a component officially "waived", the application should not be routed until we have a complete
application. Since I don't recall any blessing we gave this applicant about a tardy submittal fee or a waiver,
we should not have accepted the application.
All of that being said, we did accept the application and routed it. The City operated in good faith, but the
applicant failed to meet their requirements. The application has expired.
Now the question remains on whether they need to go back through the neighborhood meeting process. I
would argue that this project is a Type II review and may have "significant neighborhood impacts",
therefore they need to conduct another neighborhood meeting.

Hi Cameron and Georgiana,
I spoke with Troy about the above project and he says that though we made an official file for it, he did not
pay the fee until just recently. So is it expired or not?
The lawyer who is on retainer by the neighborhood thinks that this project should go through the steps
again including the Neighborhood Meeting. A Neighborhood Meeting was held May 12, 2004. 1 tend to
agree with him since it's been months since anything has happened. Projects are supposed to be
pursued diligently, but if payment was never accepted, that confuses the issue. Thoughts?
