601. PROPOSED FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW

PROPOSED FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW In a contested case, the applicant is required to submit proposed findings of fact and conclusions of law to the Office of Zoning within such time as the presiding officer may direct, which in any event shall not be less than seven (7) days after the transcript of the public hearing is delivered to OZ, pursuant to Subtitle Z § 104.4. However, nothing prevents an applicant from submitting proposed findings of facts and conclusions of law earlier if it chooses to do so. In a contested case, other parties who choose to submit findings of fact and conclusions of law shall do so in accordance with Subtitle Z § 601.1. Each party shall serve any proposed findings of fact and conclusions of law on all other parties at the same time or before the proposed findings and conclusions are filed with the Commission. The parties shall also file a certificate of service. If requested by the Commission, the applicant or other parties may submit revised findings of facts and conclusions of law, provided that no such filing may be made later than seven (7) days prior to the date the application is scheduled for final action. Unless the Commission specifies otherwise in a proceeding, no responses shall be permitted to a party’s proposed findings of fact and conclusions of law.
