Existing law, the Planning and Zoning law, generally requires that an action or proceeding challenging a public agency's decision on a variance, conditional use permit, or any other permit, among other decisions, be commenced, and service made on the legislative body of the agency, within 90 days after the legislative body's decision.
This bill, for purposes of determining the period of time before a variance, conditional use permit, or any other development permit or project approval issued by a city, county, or state agency expires, would exclude the period of time during which an action or proceeding involving the approval or conditional approval of the permit or project approval is or was pending, except as specified. By extending the expiration date of local development permits and project approvals, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program.
The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.
This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
