Can I get an extension on a permit that will expire soon?

The Building Official can grant two 90-day extensions on a permit prior to expiration. A letter outlining the reason for the extension must be received prior to expiration date. Please note that if a permit expires, it cannot be extended or renewed. A new permit must be applied for before starting construction.
