Applicant's Request: The applicant is requesting a 5-year time extension to comply <br /> with Condition E of Change of Zone Ordinance No. 09-131, which states: <br /> "Final Subdivision Approval shall be secured within five(5)years from the <br /> effective date of this ordinance." <br /> This condition required final subdivision approval within the rezone area be secured by <br /> November 4, 2014. In April 2015, the Planning Director issued an administrative time <br /> extension until November 4, 2019 to comply with Condition E. <br /> 2. Applicant's Reasons for the Request: The applicant did not obtain Final Subdivision <br /> Approval because the road access to the MCX rezone area was not constructed or bonded <br /> by the deadline due to delays with the overall Palamanui Development schedule. <br /> 3.
