A. Intent: This section applies only to developments of five (5) acres or more in the aggregate or residential subdivisions with twenty five (25) or more lots. The purpose of this section is to provide a mechanism for the development of land which permits the developer to rely on existing city code provisions and obtain limited deviation from city code requirements, while ensuring that the city will receive certain commitments from developers consistent with the overall intent of the applicable zoning codes.
B. Application: Upon application of any person having a legal or equitable interest in land, the city may enter into an agreement with that person concerning the development of that land.
1. Applications to enter into agreements concerning the development of land must be filed with the city clerk. Applications shall be filed on a form provided for such purpose and shall be complete.
2. Applications shall include payment of a filing fee in an amount established by a schedule adopted by resolution of the city council and filed in the office of the city clerk.
C. Content And Form Of Agreements: At a minimum, agreements concerning the development of land shall include the following:
1. A description of the land which is the subject of the agreement.
2. The duration of the agreement.
3. The permitted uses of the land.
4. The density or intensity of use of the land.
5. The maximum height and size of proposed buildings.
6. Any provisions for the dedication of any portion of the land for public use.
7. Provide for a period of time within which construction must commence and provide for an extension of that deadline.
D. Commitments And Safeguards: The following commitments and safeguards shall apply to any agreement concerning the development of land:
1. Unless the agreement otherwise provides, or permits or requires a deviation from an otherwise applicable city code requirement, the ordinances, resolutions or regulations applicable to that land and governing the permitted uses of that land, density and standards for design, improvements and construction are those in effect at the time the agreement is made.
2. Entering into an agreement concerning the development of land does not prohibit the city from adopting new ordinances, resolutions or regulations applicable to that land which do not conflict with those ordinances, resolutions and regulations in effect at the time the agreement is made.
