determinations.
- CDS-Planning and Building staff will provide all written

interoffice memo and, if no changes are requested, will sign the memo and
forward it to the CAO for consideration.

submitted interoffice memo and will verify the recommendation is in compliance
with Policy B-2. CAO will then respond to
the Applicant in writing, confirming approval or denial of the fee waiver
request (response letters may be sent via U.S. Mail or mailed electronically
via fax or email).
An
electronic copy of the CAO’s letter to the Applicant will be provided to the
