19.16.170 Expiration of planned community development permit.

A planned community development permit issued in conjunction with a tentative subdivision map shall expire no sooner than the approved tentative subdivision map, or any extension thereof, whichever occurs later.

A planned community development permit not issued in conjunction with a tentative subdivision map shall expire two years after the date of approval or an alternate date specified as a condition of approval, unless the permit has been initiated through commencement of substantial construction in good faith reliance on the permit or an extension has been granted. Upon application prior to the expiration of the planned community development permit, the time at which the permit expires may be extended for a period or periods not exceeding a total of three years. Prior to the expiration of a planned community development permit, upon an application to extend the permit, the permit shall automatically be extended for sixty days or until the application for the extension is approved, conditionally approved or denied, whichever occurs first. If the application for extension is denied, the decision may be appealed to the city council within fifteen days after the planning commission has denied the extension. Should a planned community development permit expire, a rezoning of the property shall be initiated to an appropriate standard zoning district consistent with the applicable general plan designation.
