1. The Board shall render a decision on any application for a building or sign permit under its review no later than one month after the hearing/meeting provided for in § 11-109 of this Part, provided that sufficient information to render an informed decision has been supplied by the applicant or otherwise made available. After a waiting period of five days, the Board shall submit, in writing, to the Borough Council recommendations concerning the issuance of a certificate of appropriateness. In no instance shall the Board take longer than 10 days to notify the Borough Council if its decision.

3. If the Board decides to advise against the granting of a certificate of appropriateness for all or part of an application, it shall indicate to the applicant, in writing, the changes in plans and specifications, if any, which, in the opinion of the Board, would protect the distinctive historical character of the district. If the applicant decides to make the specified changes, he/she shall so notify the Board, in writing, within five days following the rendering of its decision. The Board, in turn, shall advise the Borough Council accordingly. If the applicant is unable to make the decision in the time allowed, he/she may submit an application with the specified changes for consideration at a subsequent Board meeting.
