  2. Submittal of application materials. The applicant submits an application and other required materials along with the application fee.
  3. Determination of completeness. Department staff reviews the submitted materials to determine if the application is complete. If the application is not complete, the applicant will be notified of incomplete or missing requirements.
  4. Plan Commission decision. The Plan Commission reviews the application and makes a decision to (i) approve the petition as requested, (ii) approve the petition with changes, or (iii) deny the petition.
