What must be done to get the development proposal on track for a public hearing? This completes the staff comments at this time. Additional comments will be forthcoming as they are received from City departments and outside reviewing agencies.

The 90 day turnaround period begins on the date of the comment letter (October 30, 2000) prepared by the project planner in the Current Planning Department. Upon receipt, the revisions will be routed to the appropriate City departments and outside reviewing agencies, with their comments due to the project planner no later than the third weekly staff review meeting (Wednesday mornings) following receipt of the revisions. At this staff review meeting the item will be discussed and it will be determined if the project is ready to go to the Planning and Zoning Board for a decision.
