How long will the plat review process take?
The plat review process is made up of two reviews, preliminary and final. The Development Services Division’s goal is to complete the preliminary review within 15 working days and complete the final within 15 working days. Add this to the amount of time the surveyor would need to revise the plat between the preliminary and final. If the comments from the preliminary review are not adequately addressed, the final review process will be repeated until they are. Ideally, it would be best if plats were approved at the preliminary review. Unfortunately, only about 1.4 percent of plats submitted within a two year period between June 2000 and June 2002 have been approved on the preliminary review.
