Even through the current economic downturn, the Department of Planning and Development (DPD) remains committed to providing quality service to its customers. As you may have heard, DPD has experienced significant layoffs in its Operations Branch. In an effort to continue supporting its core services of plan review, permitting and inspections, DPD will be modifying its services in 2010. This includes the following:
DPD Business Closures — 10 Days
DPD’s offices will be closed 10 days in 2010, rather than having partial resources available each day. The 2010 dates fall on Fridays except Thursday, Dec. 23. The 2010 closure dates are:
- Jan. 15
- Feb. 12
- March 12
- April 9
