In creating commercial or industrial subdivisions, it is recognized that the subdivider often faces unique problems of lot design not normally encountered in residential subdivisions. For this reason, the initial emphasis of the APC shall be upon street layout and lot arrangement.
(A) Pre-application. From the standpoint of economy of time and money, it is recommended that the subdivider consult early and informally with the Director for advice and assistance. This will enable the subdivider to become familiar with these and other regulations as they affect the area and will prevent unnecessary and costly revisions.
(B) Concert plan. Procedures for the concept plan shall in accordance with standards set forth for major subdivisions.
(C) Primary plat. Procedures for the primary plat shall be in accordance with standards set forth for major subdivisions, however, the subdivider need show only two lots along with the street and block layout.
(D) Secondary plat. Procedures for the secondary plat shall be prepared in accordance with standards set forth for major subdivisions and may be done in one of two ways.
(1) Full plat. The subdivider may submit the secondary plat for the entire subdivision and then amend the secondary plat as may be necessary.
(2) Individual lot. The subdivider may submit the secondary plat for each lot which will include all necessary infrastructure serving the lot.
(E) Amendments. As prospective buyers or users express interest in lots sized to their required specifications, the owner shall submit an amendment to the approved recorded subdivision plat for consideration. Streets that have been built by following an approved set of plans on the previously approved secondary plat shall not have to be rebuilt because of the adoption of new criteria by the APC. This shall also apply to storm drainage facilities within the subdivision unless runoff characteristics have been changed by the newly proposed improvements or by unauthorized existing improvements.
