Merge rows before executing transpose in Power Query?

Time:03-11

I need to get these project description rows merged into a single row so that there will be consistency in the number of a rows per record so that I can transpose them into proper columns through Power Query. (see image) I understand how to execute a transpose w/ Power Query if the number of rows are consistent across records but I cannot figure out how to do this if the number of rows differ. The data comes from a PDF which is horribly formatted and breaks the Project Description information in to separate rows. < THAT IS THE KEY PROBLEM. Apart from that the rest is cake. See snippet to see what I mean.

Each transposed record will have seven columns: Director Analysis Address Project Area Notice Date Project Description Appeal

I can get everything I need including the headers. I just can't figure out how to merge the rows under Project Description so that I can proceed w/ the transpose. enter image description here
