City: This is DEAD.
Developer: It's not dead, it's appealed to the OMB.
OMB: It's not appealin'! It's passed on! This proposal is no more! It has ceased to be! It's expired and gone to meet its maker! It's a stiff! Bereft of life, it rests in peace! If you had substantially altered it from a previous proposal appealed to the OMB which was denied there, it might be pushing up the daisies! Because you did not materially alter the proposal however, its metabolic processes are now history! It's off the twig! It's kicked the bucket, shuffled off this mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisible!! THIS IS AN EX-PROPOSAL!!
