Board grants routine extensions, directs owners to coordinate with inspectors
Summary
Owners seeking more time to pull permits were generally granted 60–120 day extensions; staff recommended 120 days for properties in active inspection and reminded owners to use the online extension form and to seek the city attorney or building director for unresolved questions.
During the latter portion of the hearing, dozens of property owners requested additional time to finish permits, complete inspections or secure contractors. The city’s staff typically recommended 120 days for cases actively in inspection; the board granted many of those requests on a majority vote and granted 60 days in some circumstances where permits were inactive.
Owners were consistently advised to follow up directly with the inspector, the building department or the city attorney’s office if there were open procedural questions. Staff reiterated that an extension request form is available at miamigov.com and that mitigation or payment deadlines remain in force unless otherwise ordered by the board.
The board approved a mix of 60-, 90- and 120-day extensions depending on the case stage and evidence of permit progress. The chair emphasized owners must show progress if they return for additional time.
