How far in advance do story poles have to be put up? How long do they stay up?

Story poles need to go up a minimum of 10-days prior to the public hearing before the Planning Commission (the same time the public notice is sent out to property owners within 300 feet of the proposed project). This is intended to allow ample time for the public and Planning Commissioners to view the project dimensions.
