LUDMO 6-5 Review Cycle Limits And Timeline

A. A maximum of four review cycles shall be allowed for each subdivision application by the county. Each review shall be completed within 20 business days. The County shall provide specific citations for required modifications, which shall be logged in an index of requested changes. Applicants must provide a written explanation for any declined modifications. B. Subject to Section (1), unless the change or correction is necessitated by the applicant’s adjustment to a plan set or an update to a phasing plan that adjusts the infrastructure needed for the specific development, a change or correction not addressed or referenced in the County’s plan review is waived. A modification or correction necessary to protect public health and safety or to enforce state or federal law may not be waived. C. If an applicant makes a material change to a subdivision improvement plan set, the County has the discretion to start the review process at the first review of the application, but only with respect to the portion of the plan set that the material change substantially affects. D. After the applicant has responded to the final review cycle, and the applicant has complied with each modification requested in the County’s previous review cycle, the County may not require additional revisions if the applicant has not materially changed the plan, other than changes that were in response to requested modifications or corrections. E. In addition to revised plans, an applicant shall provide a written explanation in response to the County’s review comments, identifying and explaining the applicant’s revisions and reasons for declining to make revisions, if any. The applicant’s written explanation shall be comprehensive and specific, including citations to applicable standards and ordinances for the design and an index of requested revisions or additions for each required correction. If an applicant fails to address a review comment in the response, the review cycle is not complete, and the subsequent review cycle by the County may not begin until all comments are addressed.
