  • A. Expiration:
  1. PD Plan. A PD Plan shall be effective on the same date as the Chapter creating the PD district for which it was approved and shall expire two (2) years after the effective date unless actions specified in the conditions of approval have been taken, or a building permit has been issued and construction diligently pursued. An approved PD Plan may specify a development staging program exceeding two (2) years.

  2. Tentative Map. Where a tentative map has been approved in conjunction with a PD Plan, the PD Plan shall expire upon the expiration of the tentative map.

  3. Phased Development. In the event that the applicant intends to develop the project in phases, and the City Council approves phased development, the PD Plan shall remain in effect so long as not more than one (1) year lapses between the end of one phase and the beginning of the next phase unless the PD Plan is renewed pursuant to subsection (b), below. If the PD Plan is not renewed and more than one (1) year lapses between the end of one phase and the beginning of the next phase, the PD Plan shall expire.

B. Renewal. An approved PD Plan may be renewed for a period approved by the City Council after a duly-noticed public hearing. Application for renewal shall be made in writing prior to expiration of the original approval. The City Council may renew a PD Plan if it finds the renewal consistent with the purposes of this chapter. (Ord. 1866, 11-19-2019)
