We'll be going into Cycle 5 as soon as possible. Thankfully, at the very least, this round was completed with some expediency. As a result, hopefully we'll be able to turn it all around promptly as well.
The Drainage Department (represented by Michelle Macias) has rejected our plans. I just emailed her a few minutes ago to get the list of corrections that are required.
Our architect, Richard Rhydes, has been extremely frustrated with Ms. Macias, for reasons we don't fully understand. As far as we can tell, the City has not been able to decide very well what they want us to do with our plans for Drainage, so we've never gotten a straight answer. I expect this can be frustrating for an architect.
I'm sure we'll be posing more over the weekend as we figure out how significant the corrections are, but for now, the word is...not yet.
Up Next: Reviewing and Correcting the Drainage Requirements OR "Can I please speak with your manager?"

UPDATE - 2:48pm
Just heard from Richard that Michelle emailed him this morning a question about the species of trees on the plans. There are 8 total trees on the plan, and there are labels for them, but according to the email, Michelle states that "as soon as you let me know the tree species, I can approve."
This sounds like pretty good news. There's a chance she'll reverse her non-approval today, but even if not, if we only have to label the trees, we could be back on track quickly!
------------------------------------------
UPDATE - 5:00pm
Well, the end of the day has officially arrived, and no communication from Michelle. This leads us to believe that she probably went home early today, and didn't receive any of our correspondence. She's typically very prompt with her communication.
And, we don't think she works on Mondays, so we'll be on pins and needles until sometime Tuesday.
