§ 7-02 Duration of Permits.
RCNY § 7-02
(a)General.
(1)A permit will be of limited duration as provided in these rules.
(2)A permit must clearly state the expiration date of such permit on the permit.
(3)Work approved by a permit must be substantially completed within the time period for such permit.
(b)Duration of Approvals. The following types have the following durations: (1) PMW. Each PMW will be valid for four (4) years from the date of issuance for such PMW, or six (6) years from the date of issuance if issued in connection with an approval for a Modification of Use or Bulk.
(4)Report. Each Report, whether Binding or Advisory and whether issued by LPC Staff or the Commission, will be valid for six (6) years from the date of issuance for such Report.
(5)Master Plan. A master plan will be valid indefinitely, unless a lesser period of time is provided for in these rules. A PMW, CNE, C of A or Report issued for a master plan will be valid for the time period indicated in the approval; however, any time period provided in such PMW, CNE, C of A or Report shall not affect the expiration date of the master plan.
(6)MOU. Each MOU will be valid for eight (8) years from the date the Commission votes to approve the application.
(7)Conceptual approval; extension of approval for C of A. If an applicant is also applying to the Commission for a Modification of Use or Bulk, or otherwise applies to the City Planning Commission for a special permit or authorization, or to the Board of Standards and Appeals for a variance, the Commission will issue a conceptual or design C of A with a watermark for the sole purpose of allowing the City Planning Commission and/or the Board of Standards and Appeals, pursuant to § 25-305(b)(1) of the Administrative Code, to act on the application. Upon approval of the special permit, authorization or variance, and submission of all required drawings and materials to the LPC staff, the Commission will issue the final C of A, and the expiration of the final C of A will be eight years from the Commission's vote to approve the application.
(c)Shorter Period of Time to Cure a Condition Subject to a Warning Letter or Summons. Without limiting the time periods for permit duration set forth in 63 RCNY § 7-02(b), where a permit or certificate has been issued to address conditions subject to a warning letter or Summons issued pursuant to 63 RCNY Chapter 11, the Commission may require by the terms of such permit or certificate that the work be performed within a specified time period. The failure to perform the work and remedy the conditions within the specified time period means that the Chair may serve a warning letter or a first, second or subsequent Summons in accordance with the provisions of §§ 25-317.1(b) and 25-317.2 of the Administrative Code.
