Please be advised that a Notice of Filing Status letter will be sent to you regarding the status/completeness
of your entitlement(s) notifying you of the pending hearing date within 30 da s of receipt of the
entitlement(s) at the zoning counter. The letter will indicate one of the following circumstances:
