We're back with our popular "Two for Tuesday PLUS" edition providing education for you about relevant issues. Here's our list of things YOU should know about:
- CLT Land Development Streamlining Submittal Process - In conjunction with the implementation of the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO), the department is enhancing the application submittal process. Some highlights include:
- Accela Citizen Access (ACA) will be reduced to 9 record types from 70.
- ACA will now be accepting UDO Administration Applications for Pre-submittal meetings, Appeals, Variances, and Interpretations.
- Fees will be invoiced after all records are assessed in a gateway. For fee estimation, a link on the application will go to the User Fee Section on the CLT Development Center website.
- Charging to the Mecklenburg County account option will be eliminated due to payment options now offered by the CLT Development Center - conventional check, credit card payment, and e-checks.
- NCDOT will be reviewing Plats and Traffic Impact Study records in Accela. Staff is working with NCDOT to streamline the Commercial review process.
PLEASE NOTE: The City’ s submittal portal Accela Citizen Access (ACA) will be “under construction” on Thursday, June 1st thru Sunday, June 4th. ACA will re-open on Monday, June 5th. CLT Development Center
Rob Nanfelt, Executive Director of REBIC, take: Anything that can be done to smooth out the process and provide more certainty is a positive. We appreciate staff taking the initiative on this. The additional reviews that will come with the new stormwater and tree requirements will be where some delays are inevitable - probably as much as 5 to 7 business days. It will take some time to get this right.Share this post:
