I was given a variance from a driveway entering from the house lot frontage....(the driveway comes in from another road to avoid wetlands)...I was granted an extension of 6 months after it expired....now that 6 months has also expired....but I applied for and received a driveway permit before the 6 month extension expired......I also cleared some trees and roughed in a portion of the driveway.....my question is .....Did I exercise my variance?.....The law says you have to exercise your variance before it expires or you lose it....I can't find ANY case study on the subject....THANK YOU.....JOH
