BH,
I feel from your friend. This is a down fall I have seen before around the lake. It seems as though the local towns don't always keep up. I know of two stories where there have been problems after the town has approved the plans, but then DES finds things not complient.
What I can't understand, why doesn't the state ask for the DES permit application information and wait for the results before issue the final permit.
Anyways hopes it all works out for your friend.
