Engineering firm change and missing road-use details stall project approvals, board says
Summary
Staff and a committee member said a developer switched engineering oversight firms, slowing reviews; unsigned or incomplete road-use agreements and missing entrance locations are holding up drainage-board and stormwater permit progression.
Staff member and Committee member told the board that the developer hired a different engineering firm than expected, which will slow plan reviews because staff must rework expectations with the new firm. Committee member said the board typically keeps agreements in place before advancing projects to the drainage board and planning commission and that replacing a known reviewer will add weeks to the review cycle.
The group also flagged a stalled road-use agreement: staff said the developer returned a map showing proposed roads but did not mark entrance locations requested by Amber, leaving the board unable to finalize its expectations. Committee member summarized the status: the ball is in the developer's court to provide the requested entrances map; until that information and signed agreements are in hand, staff said they will not advance the application to the drainage board.
