Especially if you are going from just a mid-rise 5-7 storey building to being able to build a podium + tower. From what I understand, the redesign would take a bit longer as it would have to incorporate the setbacks involved with the tower.
Hopefully, if something is already a podium + tower change like the 15 to 20 storeys, the redesign phase is much quicker and does not require a long approval process.
