§ 6.08.110. Expiration of tentative map approval.

(a)

Expiration. The approval or conditional approval of a tentative map shall expire twenty-four months from the date the map was approved or conditionally approved.

(b)

Extension. The person filing the tentative map may request an extension of the tentative map approval or conditional approval by written application to the city clerk. Such application shall, to be effective, be filed before the approval or conditional approval expires. The application shall state the grounds for the extension. The clerk shall present the request to the planning commission at its next regular meeting. The planning commission shall make a recommendation to the city council to grant or deny the request at that or its next regular meeting. In granting an extension, new conditions may be imposed and existing conditions may be revised. Upon hearing the planning commission's recommendation the city council will make the final determination on the extension request.

(c)

Time Limit on Extensions. Upon application of a subdivider filed prior to the expiration of an approved or conditionally approved tentative map, the time at which the map expires pursuant to subsection (a) may be extended by the planning commission for a period not to exceed one year as long as the total lifespan of the map will not exceed six years from the date that the map was initially approved not including any statutory map extensions.

(d)

Effect of Map Modification on Extension. Modification of a tentative map after approval or conditional approval shall not extend the time limits imposed by this section.
