A. Except for a CUP issued for a planned residential development and, unless otherwise specified by the planning commission or city council in the conditions of approval for a CUP, a CUP shall expire two (2) years from the date of its approval unless the holder of the permit obtains a building permit or, in those instances where no building permit is required, a certificate of occupancy for the use, within such two (2) year period. The city council may, upon submittal of a written application for a time extension by the holder of the permit and prior to the expiration of the CUP, grant a one year extension of time; provided, however, that the total number of extensions for a CUP shall not exceed three (3).
B. Failure to develop the use within the time limits of this section shall amount to the forfeiture of all development entitlement under the CUP. (Ord. 2503 § 1, 2003)
