I just spoke to Paul at Watermark and confirmed that he resigned from the Council as he had too many appeals before them. He said the Council is operated under the DES Legal Dept. and that while it does not answer to the Wetlands Bureau (as noted above), it does answer to the Commissioner of DES. He voiced the same concerns and issues mentioned in this thread and he told me a number of people have complained to him about the same things. Hope this helps.
