(a) The designation of Special Restricted Development Districts in the Village is intended to reflect the unique circumstances of extreme topography, soil conditions, flood plains, water resources and outstanding natural features. It is hoped that future development will protect and enhance the existing and desired character of land uses in the Village and will be developed in accordance with a comprehensive plan. Council acknowledges that the natural features of the Village are assets commonly enjoyed by all the residents of the Village and, in combination, create the character of the community.
(b) The provisions of Special Restricted Development Districts shall overlap other districts throughout the Village and shall provide supplementary regulations for these areas.
(c) At the time it is determined this chapter will apply to a property, the property owner desiring to take action on the property shall deposit with the Village Clerk-Treasurer an amount of money as determined by the Village Engineer, not less than three hundred dollars ($300.00), to cover the cost and expense of such investigation as may be necessary to fully review such application and any accompanying maps, and to report upon the same to the Planning Commission. The engineering and legal cost and expense of such investigation shall be deducted from such deposit. If such expenditure exceeds the deposit, such excess shall be paid to the Village Clerk-Treasurer by the applicant upon the request of the Clerk-Treasurer. If such deposit exceeds such expenditure, the balance shall be refunded to the applicant. A final inspection shall be performed by the Engineer to ascertain compliance with the terms of this chapter, and shall be paid out of the applicant's bond provided for herein.
