18.53.080 Extensions and modifications.
A. An approved master plan may be extended beyond the 10 years for a maximum of five additional years provided:
1. The applicant shall submit a complete extension request to the city for review not later than one year prior to the 10-year expiration date.
2. The applicant shall demonstrate that the additional time frame is needed to complete the phasing of the original approved master plan.
3. The applicant shall demonstrate that there will not be any additional impacts created by extending the time frame.
B. An approved master plan may be modified as follows:
1. A minor amendment to an approved master plan may be applied for as a miscellaneous administrative decision processed as a Type I decision pursuant to ACC 14.03.010. A minor amendment is defined as not adding more than 20 percent to the gross square footage of the master plan. Minor adjustments shall be reviewed for consistency with this chapter and the regulations of this title, as well as the following criteria:
a. The adjustment maintains the design intent or purpose of the original approval; and
b. The adjustment maintains the quality of design or product established by the original approval; and
c. The adjustment does not cause a significant environmental or land use impact on or beyond the site; and
d. The adjustment is not precluded by the terms of this title or by state law from being decided administratively; and
e. Circumstances render it impractical, unfeasible, or detrimental to the public interest to accomplish the subject condition or requirement of the master plan approval.
2. Major amendments are those that, when determined by the planning director, substantially change the basic design, layout, open space or other requirements of the plat. When the planning director determines a change constitutes a major adjustment, a new application for a master plan is required and shall be processed as a new and separate application.
