Problems often occur during a project review or during the execution of the project when one or both parties are unclear as to the specifics. Applications will NOT be processed without all required fees and documentation. When an Application has been scheduled for any meeting where a review and decision are to be rendered, the owner and any architect or contractor (s) retained for the project must attend such meetings. Failure by the owner, architect, or contractor to attend such meetings may result in denial of the Application due to insufficient representation.

Photographs may be submitted in digital format, or in photographic print. When a project involves blueprints and/or site plans, one (1) set shall be submitted with the Application.

Any work performed on a historic landmark or in an historic district which does not conform to the Certificate of Ap- propriateness certificate, shall be immediately halted by the Historic Preservation Commission and the Building De- partment of South Bend and St. Joseph County. INTERGOVERNMENTAL DISCLOSURE Certificates Of Appropriateness will be filed with the Building Department of South Bend and St. Joseph County when the applicant also is required to obtain a building permit or other such permit issued by that department .
