Fleet Landing Riverside seeks DDRB conceptual approval

I didn't know you had your own practice now Ennis! Great to hear you're rolling up your sleeves like that.

Thanks! 3 years in this past January 1st. So far so good. Been pretty busy nationwide.

So, you are concerned they will later ask for incentives and the design isn't flushed out and/or vague. Could they change anything they showed once approved? Sorry for the confusion.

I was concerned about the process and the precedent set. Basically,  if you can get a fairly vague idea through conceptual approval and you don't "have to" come back until you're ready for final approval, that's a really bad practice for a community (in this case, downtown). Ultimately, you're placing your downtown hope on each individual applicant getting it right. History has shown, thats a pretty bad position to be in.

A public work shop would likely help. Easy to do. Often beneficial. No reason one couldn't be organized within a few weeks time, prior to final approval.

^Offered that option. They may or may not. They aren't required to.
