FAQs

For how long are discretionary permits valid?

Discretionary permit approvals, unless extended, are typically valid for 24 months from the date of approval.    However, the State of California has recently enacted legislation (AB333) to automatically extend for 24 months tentative subdivision and parcel maps approvals unexpired   as of January 1, 2012.  The City of Oceanside has also, by means of uncodified text amendment to Articles 41 and 43, approved automatic 24 month extensions for all other discretionary permits.
