Additional review may be performed at the discretion of the Program Coordinator, or their designee.

The builder will be removed from the program through the remainder of the calendar year for all participating subdivisions and/or site plans if major errors are found on 5% or more, not to exceed 10, of the dwelling units approved for permit during the calendar year. Errors may be identified during the audit or inspections process. Program fees will not be refunded. Major errors include but are not limited to zoning violations, building code violations, flipped or mirrored plans, constructing a house that was not included with the approved Master Set, or other major compliance error as determined by the Program Coordinator. Builder will be notified when each error is documented. All applications for the remainder of the calendar year shall be submitted through the standard residential permitting process.
