Entitlement
Page Two
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:
Entitlement Deemed Incomplete ; additional information is required (e.g., revised plans,
supplemental plans, environmental information, additional entitlements, etc.); or
Entitlement Deemed Complete; the Project Planner is continuing to process your entitlement(s)
and you will be notified as to when your project will be scheduled for a hearing by (1) the
Design Review Board, (2) the Zoning Administrator, or (3) the Planning Commission.
The three scenarios listed below are the subsequent steps to the above notification:
If the project is subject to Planning Commission review, a staff report with a full analysis of the
proposal will be prepared. Your plans and supplemental information will be attached to the staff
report. A copy of the staff report will be mailed to you prior to the hearing;
If the project is scheduled for Zoning Administrator review, an executive summary with staff's
recommendation for the project will be prepared. A copy of the executive summary will be
mailed to you prior to the hearing;
If the project is scheduled for Design Review Board action, no staff report will be prepared,
however staff will advise you of the staff recommendation prior to the meeting.
Generally, the complete processing time from submittal to final action by the reviewing body and
expiration of the appeal period is as follows:
Design Review Board : 30-45 days (dependent upon the complexity of your project)
Zoning Administrator : 2-3 months (dependent upon the complexity of your project)
Planning Commission : 4-6 months (dependent upon the complexity of your project)
Please note : When Zone Changes, General Plan Amendments, Tentative Maps, or preparation of
environmental documents are involved, additional processing time is necessary.
Please direct your questions and communications to the assigned Project Planner . If you have any
subsequent comments or need additional clarification, please contact me at 714-536-5271. Thank you in
advance for your interest in Huntington Beach - we look forward to working with you!
