Step 1 — LGU Information
Step 2 — CLUP Sections Checklist
Check each section that is complete and present in your CLUP draft. Nova Gov's checklist tracks 20 sections drawn from the HLURB CLUP Guidebook and common DHSUD review practice — check each one present in your draft.
Step 3 — Required Supporting Studies
Nova Gov's checklist tracks 5 supporting studies commonly required as annexes. Check each one that is complete. These are separate from the CLUP sections — DHSUD checks for them as annexes.
Optional: AI Analysis of CLUP Text
