GALDONES;Well, Commissioner Graham if my interpretation is incorrect Jeff <br />please let me know but- the way I view this is condition number 12 was part of the <br />original approval process so I don€t view this as a policy that has been adopted by the <br />Planning Department that condition number 12 not be part of any future applications or <br />conditions. I believe that- I have a comfort level that the department would be able to <br />address the administrative extension if requested by the applicant and if there is some <br />problems then there€s always the appeal process that it will be coming back to the <br />Planning Commission. And also- this is also- will alleviate some of the workload off the <br />Planning Commission too. Commissioner Graham. <br />GRAHAM:I€d like to hear the Planning Director€s comment on the request for <br />a longer extension which is just sort of coming in during the meeting here now for 4 <br />years instead of 2 and all. <br />YUEN:Idon€thaveaproblemwith3yearsI-itseemsthat-thatwegrant <br />these permits with an idea that people are going to develop a project and they have a time <br />frame so- and it turns out that that€s not the case- it will just lapse and go on forever. As <br />far as what the practice is this- this came up when we started noticing that on rezoning <br />ordinances particularly  the rezoning ordinance itself has condition that says an <br />extension can be granted after the initial- administrative time extension can be granted <br />and then after that you go to the Council. When you just copy the ordinance and you <br />don€t think about what you€re doing and you put that in again, that has the effect on <br />creating a new round of administrative time extension. The original ordinance the <br />original permit- let€s say- the rezoning ordinance or SMA permit starts off with a <br />framework that you have so many years on your time then you have one administrative <br />time extension and after that you go to- back to the Planning Commission or the Council. <br />Now when you go back for that time extension to the Planning Commission or the <br />Council that- it shouldn€t start this cycle of administrative then go back to the Planning <br />Commission or Council again but not your administrative. So- from this point- from that <br />point you get the one administrative time extension that comes right after you first get <br />your permit for your rezoning then every time after that you should go back to the <br />Planning Commission or Council. <br />GRAHAM:Thank you. I will- certainly- it€s certainly up to Mr. Fujikawa to <br />make the motion as he chooses but my sense would be that since the Planning Director is <br />willing to go for a 3 year that perhaps we consider a 3 year with no administrative time <br />extension thereafter. <br />GALDONES:Mr. Lim. <br />LIM:The applicant will agree to the 3 years if adopted by the Planning <br />Commission. <br />FUJIKAWA:Is that it? <br />GALDONES:Commissioner Fujikawa? <br />9 <br /> <br />
