(a) Minor Plan Amendment
(1) A minor amendment is an amendment or revision to a plan or any findings, conclusions, or conditions associated with the plan that does not entail matters that are fundamental determinations assigned to the Planning Board. A minor amendment is an amendment that does not alter the intent, objectives, or requirements expressed or imposed by the Planning Board in its review of the plan. A minor amendment may be approved, in writing, by the Planning Board staff. Such amendments are deemed to be administrative in nature and concern only matters that are not in conflict with the Board's prior action.
(2) No action taken by the staff on a request for a minor plan amendment can alter in any manner the validity period previously established by the Planning Board.
(b) Major Plan Amendment
(1) Any action taken by the Planning Board to amend or revise a previously approved plan, whether such amendment is limited or comprehensive in scope, will be considered a major plan amendment.
(2) The Planning Board will determine, on a case by case basis, whether the validity period should be extended and, if so, for what duration. In making such determination, the Board must consider the nature and scope of the requested amendment.
