Are grading and E&S control permit approvals required pre-requisites prior to submitting zoning and building permit applications or can these permit applications be reviewed concurrently?

All reviews start with zoning approval, then grading and E&S, and stormwater management review (if applicable) prior to submission of a building permit application. This is due to the fact that in most cases, the proposed improvement details change as they go through the permitting process steps, which means that what the building inspector reviews in the beginning might be different form finalized details once other approvals are obtained.
