§ 54.03 CONNECTION PERMIT DURATION AND FORFEITURE UPON EXPIRATION.
   A sewer connection permit expires 180 days following its date of issuance. Failure to complete the sewer connection and obtain inspection and approval of such connection by the City or designated approval authority, within 180-day period or within any extension of time or reinstatement period as provided below, shall result in forfeiture of all connection fees paid and the nullification of the permit.
   (A) Upon submittal of a written request and fee (to be set by resolution) to the City prior to the expiration of the 180-day period described above, the City may, in its discretion, grant an extension of time up to 30 days from the expiration date for good cause. Such request shall state the building permit number and the reason for the extension request. The request shall be signed by the property owner. Only one extension of time shall be allowed; thereafter, the property owner must apply for permit reinstatement.
   (B)   An expired connection permit may be reinstated upon showing of good cause for an additional 90-day period, provided the request for reinstatement has been made within 90 days of the original expiration date of the permit. The 90-day reinstatement period shall begin from the expiration date of the original permit. The application for reinstatement shall state the building permit number, the reason for the need for reinstatement; shall be signed by the property owner; and shall be accompanied by the reinstatement fee (to be set by resolution). A permit may be reinstated only once.
   (C)   Permit fees will be computed at the rate in force at the time a building permit has been applied for and the plan check fee paid.
