We have not received any comments <br />or questions from staff regarding the information supplied. I have provided staff <br />with a letter from the EQB dated July 6t" which 1 also note is not included in your <br />package. <br />Design: Our meeting with staff and the City's design consultant on May 24th <br />defined what additional information needed to be reflected on the submission <br />drawings. On June 5t" the modified drawings were delivered to staff with items <br />discussed added.
