GALDONES:Jeff, perhaps you can enlighten us the reason behind the deletion of condition number 12 and the statement- how would the- would apply if we put it back in as requested by Mr. Lim. DARROW:Condition number 12 allows for an administrative time extension. Once an administrative time extension has been exhausted then at that point the Planning Director and the Planning Department are not allowing an additional administrative time extension. So basically, any request for a time extension from here on would require the applicant to come back before the Commission. GALDONES:Commissioner Fujikawa. FUJIKAWA:Just going to stay like that? Just how I was reading (inaudible) were not going to adjust anything? GALDONES:What is before us right now is to delete paragraph- condition number12. FUJIKAWA:Right. GALDONES:Istodeleteit. FUJIKAWA:Delete it. GALDONES:Yeah. That is what is before us unless the- unless the Commissioners are willing to consider Mr. Lims request to have it reinstated. GRAHAM:Id like to have some discussion on that if we could. GALDONES:Commissioner Graham. GRAHAM:On the face of it- what Mr. Lim said sounds reasonable to me and I wasnt quite sure that I understood Jeffs comment. Like maybe letting it in is not appropriate because of the- of what were doing today or- or could the Planning Department give us some understanding about why they chose to remove that condition which would allow for an administrative time extension. GALDONES:Mr. Yuen. YUEN:As a matter of standard practice weve been taking a position of- your original permit has a administrative time extension then after that you have to go to the Planning Commission or sometimes to the Council. Then after every time extension you get you should go back to the Planning Commission or the Council. If you know the applicant thinks that they cant do the project in the time period theyre being allowed on a time extension- theyre pretty sure that they cant and they are going to need another 6
