    Tips

    • The first 180-day extension is free if any work at all is complete; the bar rises for the second extension, which requires 25% or more of the total project to be finished.
    • Beyond a second extension, further work requires a hearing before and approval by the City Council, which may approve, reject, or condition the request — this is a real governance step, not a formality.
