§ 21.84.100. Duration of approval.

A.

Approval of the site plan shall be effective for two years from the date of approval by the department. During this time, the terms and conditions upon which approval was given will not change. If application for a building permit is not made within the two-year period, the approval shall automatically terminate.

B.

However, upon the application of the owner or representative, the department shall extend the approval period for a single one year period unless since the initial approval substantive change has been made in the regulations, ordinances, requirements, policies or standards which impact the site.

C.

Knowledge of expiration date and initiation of a request for extension of approval time is the responsibility of the applicant. The county shall not be held responsible for notification of expirations, although it may notify the applicant of date of expiration. All requests for additional time must be submitted to the department prior to expiration of site plan approval.
