(A) Whenever a residential subdivision is located adjacent to an office, institutional, commercial or industrial use which does not have a buffer or property zoned for these uses and a buffer is not required between these and the subdivision, the subdivider shall provide a buffer as defined in § 152.05. The width of the buffer shall be in addition to the lot area required by Chapter 153, Zoning Code. The buffer shall become part of the lot on which it is located or in the case of commonly-owned property, the buffer shall be deemed to the homeowner’s association.
(B) Recreation fees. Recreation fees shall be required on any new subdivision or multi- family development subject to the town’s subdivision ordinance in the amount of $800 per lot for a major subdivision (four or more lots) or per unit for a multi-family development. The recreation fee shall be dedicated for parks and recreation use by the town. The Board of Commissioners may grant an exception to this policy if the developer demonstrates a willingness to construct an active recreation facility that will serve the needs of the community. All projects will need to meet the guidelines set forth by the respective permit issuing authority.
