Section 10-C313. FILING DEADLINES

 

313.1The Board may establish filing deadlines to allow sufficient time for staff review of applications before the Board meeting. The staff may defer to the next Board meeting any application not submitted in complete form, with all required information and documents, by the filing deadline.

 

313.2The filing of an application by the filing deadline does not guarantee that the application will be heard at the next Board meeting. The Board or staff may defer applications to allow sufficient time for review, if additional information is needed, if warranted by the volume of cases, or for any other legitimate reason. If an application is deferred due to the volume of cases, the staff shall give it priority over new cases at the next meeting.

 

313.3The staff may establish additional deadlines and requirements for the receipt of supplemental materials to be provided to the Board before its meeting. If an applicant fails to provide supplemental materials as required by the deadline, the staff may defer the case to the next meeting.

 

313.4The following rules pertain to applications returning to the Board for additional review:

 

(a)Refiling of the application and assignment of a new case number is not required unless the revision represents a substantially different project, the ownership has changed, more than two years has elapsed since the previous Board review, or the staff otherwise deems it appropriate.

 

(b)The Board or staff may require the submission of revised plans or other information, and further staff review and consultation if necessary, before returning to the Board.

 

(c)Submission deadlines shall be the same as for new cases, but the staff may exercise discretion in allowing late submission of revised or supplemental material.

 

(d)An applicant directed to return to the Board is not guaranteed consideration at the next Board meeting, even if revised materials are submitted by the filing deadline. The staff may schedule the case as appropriate to allow sufficient time for review.

 

(e)The staff may defer a case to the next meeting if revised plans or other information is not provided in sufficient time for review, if further revision or review is needed, or for any other legitimate reason.

 

313.5The Commission of Fine Arts may establish filing deadlines at its own discretion.
