Unit has a unique interpretation on life in general... but can come up with some gems.
Back on this though, when I was a planning archaeologist I looked at it like this… having a trigger… good idea.. BUT as I was going to have to check each app to ensure they had not missed anything then what was the point. I was going to check each one anyway with my own filter. Admittedly I was only dealing with about 1500 is apps a year. Relying on the Planning Officer to note an app that needs further examination for archaeology seems to defeat the purpose of a planning archaeologist. I saw that as my job
