Does my permit application expire if not issued?
A permit application will become null and void 60 calendar days after the last notification that a review has been done if no action is taken as in new documentation being submitted or having the permit issued. The permit application can be extended for corrections or to be paid for a single period of 60 days after the initial expiration date if the request is in writing for a good reason and is submitted prior to the initial expiration date. If the application does expire the Process Fee is non –refundable and would be required to be paid again.
