Extending a compliance deadline is a discretionary process that hinges on a valid, documented justification. You must submit a written request explaining why more time is needed, what steps will be taken, and a proposed new deadline. The PSO or the Council reviews the justification and may grant the extension if warranted by the circumstances. It’s not automatic after a set period, and it doesn’t automatically involve the court. The key point is that extensions depend on a reasoned request and the authority’s assessment of that request.
