He said that the Board granted the Petitioner height Variances in 2009 to allow for construction of 3 -story villas on Fin Me Oot. Mr. McIlhinney said that the Board granted 6 -month extensions which would expire in October 2010. The Permit Extension Act extends the Variances an additional two years from the date of the original expiration date.

Mr. McIlhinney stated that the Variance on Fin Me Oot was scheduled to expire in April 2010 and was granted an extension to December 2010. Mr. Nelson said that the Permit Extension Act extends any permit in effect during the qualifying period from August 15, 2008 to August 15, 2010. The Act specifically states that the new expiration date is two years from the date that would otherwise mark the end of the lawful term of the permit. Mr. Bonvie suggested that the Petitioner should submit a list of dates for each property with the expiration date to the ZBA office. Mr. McIlhinney agreed to submit the list.
