(a) An applicant makes a written request for an extension of the development approval period;

(b) The request is submitted to the county prior to the expiration of the approval period;

(c) The applicant states reasons that prevented the applicant from beginning or continuing development within the approval period; and

(d) The county determines that the applicant was unable to begin or continue development during the approval period for reasons for which the applicant was not responsible.

(b) An extension of a permit described in subsection (5)(a) of this rule is valid for two years. A county may approve no more than five additional one-year extensions of a permit if:

(A) The applicant makes a written request for the additional extension prior to the expiration of the extension;

(B) The applicable residential development statute has not been amended following the approval of the permit, except the amendments to ORS 215.750 by Oregon Laws 2019, chapter 433, section 1; and

(C) An applicable rule or land use regulation has not been amended following the issuance of the permit, unless allowed by the county, which may require that the applicant comply with the amended rule or land use regulation.
