Permit in Hand!

Although we did most of the celebrating last week, when the permit was effectively approved, the City takes 2 days to process the permit before you can pick it up (oh, and they make sure you pay their exorbitant fees before they let you touch it, too).

So, after 3 full business days, and no word from the City, I decided to go down to the City myself for the first time since we actually submitted the original application about a year and a half ago, and check on things for myself.

To my great surprise, when I checked in at the "Plans Routing" desk, the associate informed me that everything had been processed, and that the permit was waiting for pickup on the 20th floor!

I bounded down to the Applicant Service Center, where the permit was waiting for me (and waiting for a nice big check)! At 1:38 pm, I signed on the dotted line and we are officially ready to go!

Our next steps are to schedule site visits with the City and Geotechnical Engineers, and get to work!
