(A) Non-use variance, interpretation or administrative appeal. The concurring vote of a majority of the entire membership of the Zoning Board of Appeals shall be necessary to decide in favor of the applicant for a non-use variance or other matter upon which the Board is required to pass.
(B) Finality of decisions. All decisions of the Zoning Board of Appeals shall become final when the Board certifies its decision in writing or approves the minutes of its decision.
(C) Variance time limit. Every non-use variance granted under the provisions of this chapter shall become null and void unless the construction authorized by such variance has been commenced within six months after the granting of the variance.
(1) An applicant may, at no cost, request up to one six month extension of said variance from the Zoning Board of Appeals, if applied for in writing prior to the expiration of the variance approval.
(2) The Zoning Board of Appeals may grant such extension provided that the original circumstances authorizing the variance have not changed and that the circumstances creating the need for the extension were beyond the control of the applicant.
(D) Resubmission. No application for a variance which has been denied wholly or in part by the Zoning Board of Appeals shall be resubmitted for a period of one year from the date of the denial, except on the grounds of newly discovered evidence or proof of changed conditions found, upon inspection by the Board, to be valid.
