When a variance from the strict application of the terms of this code has been approved by the Board of Zoning Appeals, the Village Administrator may issue a zoning permit. If an applicant fails to secure the zoning permit within 60 days of the decision, such variance shall expire. If it deems a more restrictive time limit to be appropriate, the Board of Zoning Appeals shall have the authority to adjust the permit duration period. Village zoning permits are valid for one year. The duration period can be reduced but not by less than three months. Permit duration can also be increased, but not by more than two years.
Example: The Board may want to limit the zoning permit's period of validity from one year to six months for a particular reason, such as paving the parking lot now instead of waiting until spring.
