Applicants will use goPost™️ to track the status of their project applications, to know when to download marked-up plans, and eventually retrieve the approved plan set. Applicants will also communicate with agency staff through goPost as necessary.
Project Statuses
The following are standard default statuses to expect within goPost. Certain status names may be modified by the agency. For some events, action will be required on your part.
You may receive emails for these Statuses based on your notification settings. For more information, see goPost Notifications.

About the Intake Process
After you have submitted your project application and documents for an Intake completeness check, the project status will be changed from Created to Pending.
Intake personnel will review the project information and submitted documents to determine whether the project is acceptable. You will receive an email when the Intake staff have accepted your project.
Applications Placed On Hold by Intake Staff
If documents do not meet submittal requirements or if the required project information has not been provided, you will receive an email with instructions on how to proceed. The email will notify you that the project application has been placed on hold until you respond.
Once you have gathered the required information, log in to your goPost account, open the project application and either replace the named documents with the correct documents or provide the missing project information as instructed and Submit to intake staff again.
Applications Denied by Intake Staff
Intake staff may decide to deny your application altogether if they determine it is not appropriate, such as for incorrect jurisdiction or incorrect type of application. In this case, the email you receive will provide information regarding this decision.
Applications Accepted by Intake Staff
If intake staff determine that everything looks appropriate then the application will be accepted and you will receive an email. Staff will then assign plans for review.
