Petitioners request that the complete plan amendment be docketed concurrently with, and joined to, the "official" neighborhood plan amendment that was submitted by the Silver Beach Neighborhood Association ("SBNA"). Further, petitioners request that, pursuant to BMC Sec. 21. l 0.190 A, the Director waive normal submittal requirements for review of this application as such necessary information is contained in the application filed by the SBNA, rendering additional documentation duplicative. Finally, petitioners request that any relevant fees for this application be waived on the theory that the "complete" plan amendment is, in fact, the true result of the neighborhood plan review process required under BMC Sec. 20.20.070.
