(a) Effective Date.
(1) Generally, the action to approve, conditionally approve, or deny a permit authorized by this title shall be effective on the eleventh calendar day after the date of action, immediately following expiration of the ten-day appeal period. However, where the last of the specified number of days falls on a weekend or city holiday, the time limit of the appeal shall extend to the end of the next working day.
(2) Legislative actions of the city council normally become effective thirty days from the date of final action and may not be appealed. Therefore, administrative and quasi-judicial permits that are processed in conjunction with (or that are contingent upon) a legislative action shall not be acted upon until the effective date of the required legislative action. Permit(s) shall not be issued until the effective date of required permit.
(b) Effect of Permit. The approval of a land use or development permit authorizes the applicant to proceed with the proposed project upon the effective date of the permit, subject to all conditions or restrictions imposed by the approving authority. However, all other permits, licenses, certificates and other grants of approval to which the proposed development project is subject must be secured before the development or use may commence.
