It makes sense to me given that permitting office had no incentive to do its job previously.

If I were to guess, most of the time was sitting on various desks.

With a lot of government agencies, processing time is just a function of backlog que.

I had a trivial vehicle title issue and it took 9 months to get resolved. It would move from department to department spending 3 months on a desk in each department.

Each task was a 1 minute assessment, (is a box checked), or sometimes simply forwarding it to another group.

It would have taken much longer, but I spent a dozen hours calling in and convinced the bureaucrats to skip the que a few times.
