§ 4-54. Submission and review.

(a)

Content review . Prior to or concurrent with applying for construction plan review, the developer shall submit two copies of the stormwater management plan and report, signed and sealed by a state registered engineer, and supporting data to the building official or the city council's designee for processing. Within five working days of receipt of the stormwater management plan and report, the building official or the city council's designee shall determine whether plans and reports are complete and contain all required information. If a content completeness determination is not made within the required time, the plans and reports shall be deemed complete. The developer shall be notified immediately thereafter of the content completion status of the plan and report. Once the plan and report are determined or deemed complete, the building official or the city council's designee shall accept the plans for technical review.

The developer shall have 60 days to respond to the technical review comments and submit the requested additional or revised information. Upon request by the developer, an extension of time may be granted by the building official or the city council's designee upon a showing by the developer that a good faith effort is being made to provide the additional or revised information and that additional time is required. In the event a response is not received or an extension obtained, the application shall be considered withdrawn.
