Whenever within one year after granting a variance or appeal the terms as permitted by the variance or appeal shall not have been completed, then that variance or appeal shall become null and void unless a petition for extension of time in which to complete the work has been granted by the City Council. The extension shall be requested in writing and filed with the Zoning Administrator at least 30 days before the expiration of the original variance or appeal. There shall be no charge for the filing of the petition. The request for extension shall state facts showing a good faith attempt to complete the work permitted in the variance or appeal. The petition shall be presented to the Planning Commission for a recommendation and to the City Council for a decision, and shall be requested only one time on a singular action.
