(a) The approval of the preliminary planned unit development plan shall become null and void, and the land shall revert to its former zoning classification, unless the final planned unit development plan for the first section of the planned unit landholding has been formally approved by the Planning Board within two years after the date of approval of the preliminary plan, in accordance with Sections 1278.15 through 1278.17 and unless the final plan, where applicable, has been recorded in the office of the County Recorder.
(b) An extension of the time limit or a minor modification of the preliminary planned unit development plan may be approved by Council.

(c) Council may also take such action as it deems appropriate which is at variance with a recommendation of the Planning Board, provided such action is approved by at least five votes of the members of Council.
