4. If a site plan expires, the allocation of dwelling units granted for any principal structure that has not received a certificate of occupancy or equivalent certification shall expire at the time the site plan expires.
5. a. An extension of time for site plan expiration shall be granted by the reviewing body approving the site plan when all applicable building, zoning and engineering regulations remain the same and good cause for the delay has been shown by the applicant. Good cause may include, but shall not be limited to, delay caused by governmental action or inaction or other factors totally beyond the control of the applicant. An extension shall only be granted where an applicant has requested an extension during the effective period of the development permit.

O. Time for meeting conditions. Conditions which are imposed in connection with a development permit which do not require a building permit shall be met at the time of issuance of a development permit associated with the site plan, except if the applicant shows that due to factors associated with the site such conditions cannot be met, the department may extend the time. If a condition requires construction of an improvement, such construction shall be commenced at the time of commencement of the part of the development which relates tothe condition. All improvements required from the developer as a condition of approval for a development permit shall be installed and completed prior to the issuance of any certificate of occupancy. If conditions are imposed which are required to be met and an applicant fails to meet such conditions, the development permit may be revoked by the same body utilizing the same process as applicable to the issuance of the permit.
P. Payment of monies in lieu of installation of required improvements. In the event that any improvements required to be made by the developer as a condition of approval for a development permit cannot be installed or completed prior to the issuance of any certificate of occupancy, the city may accept payment or a bond in the amount needed to ensure completion of the required improvements. The city will accept such payment or bond from the applicant, when the applicant has demonstrated good cause for its inability to complete the installation of the required improvements, andsuch delay will not cause risk to public health or safety. Funds in the amount of the cost of the required improvements will be paid to, or a bond in the amount of one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the cost of the required improvements shall be posted with the city. Any funds collected or bonds posted pursuant to this subsection shall only be expended upon the improvements for which the money or bond was obtained. Such funds shall be expended within five (5) years of the date such money or bond wascollected by the city. If the cost of said improvements is less than the money held by the city, or if it has not been spent or used within the five (5) year time frame, then a refund of any funds held by the city shall be made to the developer or the bond shall be released. However, should any required improvement be budgeted and planned for completion within said five (5) year time frame, but not started or totally completed within said five (5) years, then in that case no refund or release shall be required. A developer shall only be required to pay its proportionate share of the cost of required improvements in those cases in which the improvement does not solely benefit the development.

3. Review process.

4. Criteria--Variance. A variance from the terms of the ULDR shall be granted only upon demonstrating a unique hardship attributable to the land by proving by a preponderance of the evidence all of the following criteria:
a. That special conditions and circumstances affect the property at issue which prevent the reasonable use of such property; and
b. That the circumstances which cause the special conditions are peculiar to the property at issue, or to such a small number of properties that they clearly constitute marked exceptions to other properties in the same zoning district; and
c. That the literal application of the provisions of the ULDR would deprive the applicant of a substantial property right that is enjoyed by other property owners in the same zoning district. It shall be of no importance to this criterion that a denial of the variance sought might deny to the owner a more profitable use of the property, provided the provisions of the ULDR still allow a reasonable use of the property; and
d. That the unique hardship is not self-created by the applicant or his predecessors, nor is it the result of mere disregard for, or ignorance of, the provisions of the ULDR or antecedent zoning regulations; and
e. That the variance is the minimum variance that will make possible a reasonable use of the property and that the variance will be in harmony with the general purposes and intent of the ULDR and the use as varied will not be incompatible with adjoining properties or the surrounding neighborhood or otherwise detrimental to the public welfare.
5. Criteria--Special exceptions. A special exception shall be granted upon demonstration by a preponderance of the evidence of all of the following criteria:
