Please be advised that the building plans for the above referenced project have been disapproved for the purposes of
obtaining a building permit. During a review of the plans by the Building Division for compliance with the applicable

A complete review cannot be performed until the revised plans/documents, including a written response in
itemized letter format indicating where the ‘clouded’ or otherwise highlighted changes can be found on the

this on the plans so that the calculation packet and plans coincide with each other.
