Once the I-PUD Zoning District and the preliminary PUD plan have been approved by Council, the owner/developer shall proceed with the preparation of the detailed final I-PUD plan. The detailed final I-PUD plan shall be reviewed and approved by the Planning Commission and Council prior to the issuance of any zoning certificate by the Zoning Inspector. When the individual stage being reviewed is located within the D-Design Area or Historical Area as shown on the Design Area Map, the Design Review Committee and/or Historical Preservation Area Review Committee shall participate in the review process with the Commission.
The detailed final I-PUD plan shall be prepared for the owner/developer and shall bear the original signature, and/or original seal of the professionally competent professional engineer, architect or landscape architect; shall be in accordance with the approved preliminary I-PUD plan; and shall include the following:
(a) Survey of the tract to be developed showing existing physical features, general topography, drainage ways and tree cover and streets, easements and utility lines.
(b) Detailed site plans showing lot lines, building outlines, off-street parking spaces, pedestrian walkways and vehicular circulation.
(c) Preliminary building plans, including floor plans and exterior elevations.

After submittal the Commission may make suggestions to the owner/developer regarding modifications which would improve the likelihood of approval of the final I-PUD plan. The owner/developer may modify the final I-PUD plan before a final action is taken by the Commission. The owner/developer may withdraw the submission of the final I-PUD plan if additional time is needed for the modifications.
