NewScreener

Staff can edit and delete their own screener notes

Each note's author now sees Edit and Delete on their own notes in the Staff notes popover. Edited notes show "edited" with the time on hover, and deleted notes disappear from the popover, the queue's latest-note line and later screening rounds; the original text is kept for audit.

ImprovedPlan Review

Plain-language routing summary for City staff

The submittal routing panel now shows plan checkers a one- or two-sentence plain summary of how a submittal was routed, plus the permit number and name of each application found, instead of raw internal notes.

ImprovedScreener

One fail per City ask on resubmittals

Resubmittal screenings now check only whether each City ask was delivered, across every current file, with one round summary. A delivered item with a defect, such as a missing signature, resolves its ask and shows as a staff note rather than a new applicant fail.

Laguna Beach reroof filings ask for Planning approval first

When the City record shows no Zone Clearance on file, Laguna Beach residential and commercial reroof screenings now list Planning approval as a missing item in the applicant email, instead of leaving it as a staff-only note that never reached the letter.
