If it was I, I would be very tempted to withdraw my
application at this time. You are in a much worse
position if it is refused than if it has not been
considered. I would then spend as much time as is
necessary to get all ducks into the proverbial row and
reapply.
At one point in England I had two Scam masts, one with
an A4S, and one extended to 85' for a vertical in a
very rural location. I did not apply for permission.
The planning officer called me one day to 'discuss'
them as one of the the neighbours knew him personally
(but didn't object to the antennas). I told him they
were temporary structures as they could be completely
removed in a few hours. Whilst he and I both knew that
is not what the planning acts say, he was quite happy
to put that in his file and forget all about them.
I will now make you jealous and reveal that here I
'own my property up to the heavens' and can put up any
size tower than I want (actually can afford), subject
only to consulting with (notifying) Industry Canada
and my neighbours. Of course if it's very high
aviation safety lighting and painting are required.
