Extension, or cancellation of permits.

All permits shall expire one year after issuance of the permit. To protect the health, safety and welfare of the residents of Homer Glen and minimize negative impacts related to construction-related activities, the Village shall require a guarantee for completion of the project in accordance with Subsection H(2)(a) and shall further impose a fee for the extension of a building permit in accordance with the applicable section set forth below. Building permits cannot be extended for terms greater than one year. No more than two extensions of the term of the original building permit shall be granted. No extension shall be granted unless the applicant demonstrates that he or she has provided for an expenditure of labor, time and resources reasonably sufficient to establish a good faith intention to actively and diligently pursue completion of the work contemplated by the permit as opposed to the intention to merely prevent the lapse of the permit. Applicants may appeal to the Village President and the Village President may authorize additional extensions of time beyond the limitations set forth in this Subsection H in cases where the applicant can prove hardship beyond the control of the applicant. If the Village President elects to extend the term of the permit beyond the limitations of this section, a fee may be imposed as deemed appropriate.
(2)
Application fees for the extension of a building permit shall be
as follows:
(a)
If an occupancy permit has not been issued within a year of
the original issuance of a building permit and the owner/contractor
has not applied for an extension of the permit prior to the expiration
of the permit, a stop-work order shall be issued for the property
until such time as the owner/contractor applies for an extension of
the building permit. The application for an extension of the permit
shall include a schedule that specifies the time table for completion
of the project. The permit fee to extend the term of the permit shall
be calculated by dividing the original building permit fee by 12 and
multiplying the quotient by the number of months (not to exceed six
months) required for completion, as specified in the owner/contractor
time table, the total of which shall then be multiplied by two. Any
construction that shall exceed six months shall result in the payment
of the total original permit multiplied by two, without any proration.
(b)
If an occupancy permit has not been issued within a year of
the original issuance of a building permit and the owner/contractor
has applied for an extension of the permit prior to the expiration
of the permit, the applicant shall provide a schedule that specifies
the time table for completion of the project. The permit fee to extend
the term of the permit shall be calculated by dividing the original
building permit fee by 12 and multiplying the quotient by the number
of months (not to exceed six months) required for completion, as specified
in the owner/contractor time table. Any construction that shall exceed
six months shall result in the payment of the total original permit
without any proration.
(c)
If an occupancy permit has not been issued within the time period
allowed by the first extension of the original permit, and the owner/contractor
has not applied for another extension of the permit, a stop-work order
shall be issued for the property until such time as the owner/contractor
applies for an additional extension of the building permit. The owner/contractor
shall provide to the Building Department a schedule that specifies
the time table for completion of the project and an application for
a second extension of the building permit. The permit fee for a second
extension of time for a building permit shall be calculated by dividing
the original building permit fee by 12 and multiplying the quotient
by the number of months (not to exceed six months) required for completion,
as specified in the owner/contractor time table, the total of which
shall then be multiplied by three. Any construction that shall exceed
six months shall result in the payment of the total original permit
multiplied by three, without any proration.
(d)
If an occupancy permit has not been issued within the time period
allowed by the first extension of the original permit and the owner/contractor
has applied for a second extension of the permit, the owner/contractor
shall provide a schedule that specifies the time table for completion
of the project. The permit fee for the second extension of time for
a building permit shall be calculated by dividing the original building
permit fee by 12 and multiplying the quotient by the number of months
(not to exceed six months) required for completion, as specified in
the owner/contractor time table, the total of which shall be multiplied
by two. Any construction that shall exceed six months shall result
in the payment of the total original permit without any proration
multiplied by two.
(e)
No building permit shall be extended for a period greater than
six months, either prior to or after the expiration date of the original
permit, unless a letter of credit is provided in the amount of 125%
of the estimated cost of the remaining construction as identified
on the original building permit application. Such letter of credit
shall provide the Village with the right, but not the obligation,
to complete the construction of the structure for which the permit
has been applied, in accordance with the submitted plans if an occupancy
permit has not been issued prior to or on the date of expiration for
the building permit. The letter of credit shall be provided in a form
approved by the Village, with renewal terms.
[1]
Exception. If it is determined by the Building Code Official that a currently registered contractor is performing in good faith towards the completion of a permitted project, which has gone beyond the one-year permit period, an extension of the permit may be granted. An extension may occur if it is determined that final inspections and approvals are the only outstanding items prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy. An administrative fee of $250 shall be charged at the time of certificate of occupancy issuance in lieu of fees referenced in § 75-36G(2).
