Prepare and submit packages Assemble and submit permit, tentative plat (T-plat), final plat, paving and drainage, and water and sewer packages, checking each against the agency's requirements before it goes out. Gather the required plans, reports, applications, owner documents, and fees from the team and clients. Draft comment response letters and cover documentation from our templates, and review them for accuracy before sending. Schedule agency appointments and coordinate resubmittals, as-builts, and certification requests.
