If the project is not listed in the chart above, the City
Administrator will determine the expiration date for the permit. Once the
permit expires, it shall become null and void and be of no further force and
effect unless an extension is acquired.
Permit Extensions
An extension may be requested for up to one-half the time
of the original permit, but in no case more than six (6) months. Permittee
must pay a penalty in the amount of 25% of the original permit fee for each
month of the requested extension. Additional work time beyond the extension
requires a secondary permit and City Council approval.
