If a building permit or a grading permit expires without commencement of construction, then the fee payer shall be entitled to a refund, without interest, of the fees paid as a condition for its issuance pursuant to compliance with section 15.08.130; provided, however, that the portion of any fee revenue received by the city as reimbursement of its costs in administering the provisions of this chapter shall not be refunded. Failure to timely submit the required application for refund as provided in section 15.08.130 shall constitute an absolute waiver of any right to the refund. (Ord. 2017-0050 § 1; Ord. 2009-005 § 4)
