CD will be in charge of running the plans through Building, Public Works, Zoning, and Fire departments. 1.2. Plans MUST NOT be submitted directly, by developer's staff, to the Building Department. By doing so, developer will be acknowledging that such plans will NOT be part of this expediting process. CD will not, under any circumstances, assist in expediting plans not labeled as "Affordable Housing". 1.3. If plans were submitted directly to the Building Department and developer wishes to get assistance expediting such plans, developer must re -submit plans through CD. The plans will be logged -in on a first-come first -serve basis. I.A. Plans that have been returned three (3) prior times for corrections (same discipline) will no longer be accepted by the Department of Community Development to take advantage of the expediting process. 2.0 THE PROCESS: The Department of Community Development will be the only contact point for affordable housing developers who wish to expedite their plan review process.
