Hello, all! You may recall about a month ago or so that I was looking for any experiences with/knowledge of appeal periods prior to getting permits for cases that have gone through design review, specifically having appeal periods expire before the applicant can receive their permit. Well, the case went to our Planning Commission, which accepted our recommendation that people wait until appeal periods have expired before people can obtain their permits (among other more basic and less issue-y changes). Last night I presented the case to City Council, who then passed the ordinance, no problem. Now we just have to tackle the Building Code so that it agrees with the revised Zoning Code! My thanks to Ralph, Heidi and Dennis who piped in with their comments. - Johnette
