(A) General.
(1) If a proposed subdivision includes land that is zoned for commercial or industrial purposes, the layout of the subdivision with respect to such land shall make such provision as the Plan Commission may require.
(2) A nonresidential subdivision shall be subject to all the requirements of site plan and approval set forth in the zoning regulations. Site plan approval and nonresidential subdivision plat approval may proceed simultaneously at the discretion of the Commission. A nonresidential subdivision shall also be subject to all the requirements of these regulations, as well as such additional standards required by the Commission, and shall conform to the proposed land use and standards established in the Comprehensive Plan and other plans of the town.
(B) Standards. In addition to the principles and standards in these regulations, which are appropriate to the planning of all subdivisions, the applicant shall demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Commission that the street, parcel, and block pattern proposed is specifically adapted to the uses anticipated and takes into account other uses in the vicinity. The following principles and standards shall be observed.
(1) Each nonresidential area or parcel shall be shown, and marked on the plat as to its intended use.
(2) Proposed parcels shall be suitable in area and dimensions to the types of development anticipated.
(3) Special requirements shall be imposed by the local government with respect to street, curb, driveway, and sidewalk design and construction.
(4) The Town Engineer shall approve in writing prior to final plat approval that the proposed non-residential development will not conflict with traffic circulation patterns, and requirements for driveway location and design, and can reasonably be implemented at no cost to the town.
(5) Special requirements may be imposed by the Town Board with respect to the installation of public utilities, including water, sewer, and storm water facilities.
(6) Every effort shall be made to protect adjacent residential areas from potential nuisance from a proposed nonresidential subdivision, including the provision of extra depth in parcels backing up on existing or potential residential development and provisions for a permanently landscaped buffer strip when necessary.
(7) Streets carrying nonresidential traffic shall not be extended to the boundaries of adjacent existing or potential residential areas. No residential local street shall terminate at a proposed or existing nonresidential area.
