The foregoing provisions of these regulations to the contrary not withstanding, an approved preliminary plat may be submitted for final approval in separate geographic units rather than as a whole; provided, the following conditions are met.
(A) Each unit of a plat of subdivision for single-family residences shall contain an area of sufficient size based on physical conditions and ability to install improvements economically. Such units should, if possible, contain at least 20 lots.
(B) The approval of the Planning Commission upon the advice of local Public Utilities Superintendent and private utility officials as to the feasibility of such development, in separate units, including the feasibility of the proposed sequence of development shall be secured.
(C) A final plat of at least one unit shall be submitted for approval within 12 months from the date of approval of the preliminary plat, and final plats of all such units shall be submitted for approval within three years from the date that the preliminary plat was approved. The Planning Commission, on application of the subdivider, may from time to time grant extensions of time within which to submit such final plats; provided that, each such extension shall be for no more than one year.
(D) All steps required for the approval of final plats, including the recording thereof, shall be adhered to with respect to each unit so submitted.
