1184.01 INTENT AND PROCEDURE.
   Preliminary and final site development plans for proposed projects of five (5) acres or more in the R-MHL, R-MHH and R-PUD Zoning Districts and for all planned unit developments shall be submitted to and reviewed by the Planning Commission in three (3) stages, as follows:
   A.   Pre-application procedure;
   B.   Submission of preliminary site development plan; and
   C.   Submission of final site development plan.
   It is the intent of this procedure to insure that all parties are specifically aware of significant aspects of the proposed development and that the public interest is met in terms of the provision of air, sunlight, open space, access for vehicles (including ambulances and fire-fighting equipment), orientation, separation of buildings, area densities and related items.
(Ord. 98-176. Passed 8-3-98.)
1184.02 COORDINATION WITH SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS.
   The requirements of this chapter shall be in addition to the requirements of the Subdivision Regulations, where applicable. Where the regulations of this chapter are in conflict with the Subdivision Regulations, the more restrictive shall apply. Subdivision plats shall be in full compliance with and contain all information as required under the Subdivision Regulations.
   If the proposed development meets the requirements for the subdivision of land under the Subdivision Regulations, the preliminary subdivision plan shall be submitted simultaneously with the preliminary site development plan and the final subdivision plat shall be submitted simultaneously with the final site development plan.
(Ord. 98-176. Passed 8-3-98.)
1184.03 REVIEW PROCEDURE.
   No building permits shall be issued and no building shall be permitted within the above designated districts until the final site development plans have been submitted to and approved by the Planning Commission. Prior to the granting of the building permit, the Building Inspector shall receive from the Planning Commission a signed copy of the approved final site development plans.
   The Commission may approve the plans as submitted, modify or disapprove the plans. The Commission may impose such reasonable conditions as necessary upon its approval, including the recording of covenants.
   The Secretary of the Commission shall be notified two weeks in advance of a regularly scheduled Commission meeting by the developer of his or her intent to submit the preliminary site development plan for the final site development plan.
   The Commission shall review and take action upon the plans submitted within thirty (30) days, or within such further time as the applicant may agree to. Upon completion of the review, the action of the Commission shall be noted on two copies of all submitted plans, referenced and attached to any conditions determined necessary for approval. One copy shall be retained by the Commission and filed with the records of the City, and the other returned to the applicant.
   Upon approval of the submitted plans, the signature of the Chairperson of the Commission shall be affixed to all documents. Building permits may then be issued. If the Commission determines that a plan should be disapproved and a building permit cannot be issued, the Commission shall stated in its records the reasons for such determination and shall transmit to the applicant an attested copy of the reasons and recommendations thereon.
   Approval of plans shall be conditional upon compliance with all other applicable statutes, ordinances, resolutions and regulations of the City and the State.
(Ord. 98-176. Passed 8-3-98.)
