Every permit shall expire if the work authorized by the permit is not commenced within 180 days from the date of issuance or if the work is suspended or abandoned for a period of 180 days at any time after construction progress is last documented. A permit may be extended only once prior to expiration for a period of time not to exceed 180 days. To extend the expiration date the applicant must provide a written request to the Building Official, which shows that circumstances beyond the control of the applicant have prevented the work from progressing.
