City's Good Faith in Processing. Subject to the reserved discretionary approvals set forth in Section 201 and the provisions of Section 207(3) hereof, the City agrees that it will accept, in good faith, for processing, review and action, all complete applications for zoning, special permits, development permits, tentative maps, subdivision maps or other entitlements for use of the Property in accordance with the General Plan and this Agreement. The City shall inform the Developer, upon request, of the necessary submission requirements for each application for a permit or other entitlement for use in advance, and shall review said application and schedule the application for review by the appropriate authority. The Developer and the City shall comply with the time frames set forth in the Subdivision Map Act, and, if applicable, the Permit Streamlining Act, for the processing of parcel and tentative subdivision maps and final maps. With City approval, the Developer may utilize an expedited plan check process for the review of improvement plans and building plans for the Project. Within two (2) weeks of a written request by the Developer, the City shall determine whether expedited plan check is feasible for the requested work. If the City determines that expedited plan check is feasible, the City shall retain an outside consultant for review of the Developer’s improvement plans and building plans. Such outside consultant shall be at the sole selection of the City and shall be paid for at the sole cost and expense of the Developer. Upon written request, the Developer shall advance a deposit sufficient to cover the City's estimated costs of retaining the outside consultant. Such deposit shall be replenished as necessary, from time to time, to assure that the City shall not bear any of the cost of the outside consultant.
