How long does it take for the District to review submitted application materials?
For new applications, the District has up to 15 days to notify the applicant whether or not the application is complete. Once an application is conditionally approved by the Board of Managers at their monthly permit meeting, the District will continue to accept application submittal materials (revised plans, surety, legal forms, etc.) until all pending items are satisfied and the permit can be issued. Review time for these items varies depending on the number of items received from all applicants. The District reviews items on a first submitted, first reviewed basis. In general, submittal items are reviewed by the District within 15 days of submittal.
