Finding F8
CDD frequently provided applicants with incremental or successive correction notices during the plan review and permitting process whereby additional corrections or new requirements were often issued that had not been identified during prior reviews even after applicants had corrected identified deficiencies and resubmitted revised materials. This practice contributed to project delays, increased costs, and frustration among applicants and contractors, and created a perception of inconsistency and inefficiency within the permitting process.
