The project sponsor shall supply any information necessary to assist the Department in this determination.

After the Department has made its final determination of the net addition of gross square feet of each type of space subject to Section 421.1 et seq. , it shall immediately notify the Development Fee Collection Unit at DBI of its determination in addition to the other information required by Section 402(b) of this Article.
