Background
A developer had plans to build a new hotel with a significant entertainment component. Since the design featured two nightclubs in the same building, a variety of specialized assembly permits needed to be created and filed with the fire department. Adding to the challenge, the permits were required to be approved within just two weeks to stay on schedule.
