How long is a permit good for?
In general for a permit to remain valid, work must be started within six months and must not be abandoned for a period of six months. Evidence that a project has not been abandoned is usually on-going inspections. Time extensions of up to 180 days may be granted but must be requested in writing with justification before the permit expires.
