Standards and Policy Manual including the General Notes for Public Construction
(Figure 1.1-9). This plan does not require a Civil Engineers or Architects

submittal process. Plan preparation shall describe and include:

Plans will be reviewed by the Plan Review
Division and either approved or returned to the applicant for corrections.
Upon plan approval, the applicant and or applicant's representative / contractor, must
