3.5.C NPP Procedure
- Applicants begin the NPP process by applying with the CPC staff, who will provide a list of required parties to be noticed as well as a Neighborhood Participation Program Guide.
- Applicants must provide CPC staff with a copy of the NPP meeting notice. CPC staff will ensure that the NPP meeting notice is sent through the City’s electronic verification system to interested parties. The failure of CPC to publish notice through the City’s electronic verification system or the unavailability of the electronic verification system shall not be grounds for deeming a NPP to be insufficient.
- Applicants must send the required notice to all parties listed by CPC staff. Proof of actual delivery is not required. For notice sent through the U.S. mail, an attestation of mailing alongside a copy of the notice is sufficient. For notice sent through e-mail, a copy of the email including addresses the email was sent to with the notice embedded in the body or attached as a pdf is sufficient.
- Applicants must hold the required NPP meeting at the date, time, and location included in the notice, and must keep the necessary records for submission of the NPP Report. If the NPP meeting is rescheduled, notice of the rescheduling must be sent by the same means as the original notice and CPC staff must be notified by email.
- Applicants must submit the NPP Report as part of their application for the types of applications set forth in 3.5.B. This application will not be considered complete until a satisfactory NPP Report has been received by CPC staff.
- Applicants must provide CPC staff with notice of the date, time, and location of NPP meetings. CPC staff shall maintain a publicly available list of all NPP meetings.
