Preliminary plats can be considered concurrently with the planned development application and must comply with Title 17. A PRD will be approved, conditionally approved, or denied by the Hearing Examiner after a public hearing pursuant to KMC Chapter 4.02. The PRD shall be effective for seven years from the date of approval from the hearing examiner. During this time the terms and conditions upon which approval was given will not be changed except as provided in Section 18.45.090(2) (Minor and Major Adjustments). Knowledge of expiration date and initiation of a request for extension of approval time is the responsibility of the applicant. The City of Kennewick shall not be held accountable for notification of expirations, although it may notify the applicant of date of expiration. All requests for an extension of time must be submitted in writing to the Planning Department prior to expiration of PRD approval; expiration of a permit application is per Section 4.12.075. Building permits and other permits required for the construction or development of property under the provisions of this chapter shall be issued only when, in the opinion of the director, the work to be performed meets the requirements of the final plan and program elements of the PRD. Once the preliminary development plan is approved, all persons and parties, their successors, heirs, or assigns, who own, have, or will have by virtue of purchase, inheritance or assignments, any interest in the real property within the proposed PRD, shall be bound by the conditions attending the approval of the development and the provisions of this chapter. Cessation of work or abandonment thereof for a period of 12 months is grounds for revocation.
