(A) Sixty days prior to or following the lapse of approval for a plat, as provided in this chapter, the developer may petition the Council to extend or reinstate the approval. This petition shall be considered at a public meeting of the Council.
(B) In determining whether to grant such a request, the Council shall take into account the reasons for the lapse, the ability of developer to comply with any conditions attached to the original approval, and the extent to which newly adopted subdivision regulations shall apply to the plat or study. The Council may extend or reinstate the plat, or deny the request, in which instance the developer must submit a new application for approval.
(C) The Council may extend or reinstate the approval subject to additional conditions based upon newly enacted regulations or as are necessary to ensure compliance with the original conditions of approval. The Council may also specify a shorter time for lapse of the extended or reinstated plat or study than is applicable to original approvals.
