(A) Preapplication conference. Prior to the submission of an application for planned unit development approval, the applicant shall meet with the Zoning Administrator, together with any staff and consultants the Administrator deems appropriate. The applicant shall present at the conference, or conferences, at least a sketch plan of the proposed planned unit development, as well as the following information:
(1) Total number of acres in the project;

(5) The known deviations from ordinance;
(6) Regulations to be sought;
(7) The number of acres to be preserved as open or recreational space; and
(8) All known natural resources and natural features to be preserved.
(B) Preliminary plan.
(1) Generally. Following the preapplication conference, the applicant shall submit a preliminary site plan of the proposed planned unit development. The preliminary site plan shall be prepared in accordance with the standard set forth in § 151.023(C). A narrative report shall accompany the site plan providing a description of the project, discussing the market concept and feasibility of the project, and explaining the manner in which the criteria set forth in § 151.125 have been met.
(2) Planning Commission action. The preliminary plan shall be noticed for public hearing as a zoning amendment before the Planning Commission. Following the hearing, the Planning Commission shall review the preliminary site plan and shall take 1 of the following actions.
(a) Approval. Upon finding that the preliminary plan meets the criteria and standards set forth in §§ 151.125 and 151.126, the Planning Commission shall grant preliminary approval. Approval shall constitute approval of the uses and design concept as shown on the preliminary plan and shall confer upon the applicant the right to proceed to preparation of the final plan. Approval of the preliminary plan by the Planning Commission shall not constitute rezoning of the property to PLTD nor bind the Village Council to approval of the final plan.
(C) Final plan. Within 6 months following receipt of the Planning Commission comments on the preliminary plan, the applicant shall submit a final plan and supporting materials conforming with this section. If a final plan is not submitted by the applicant for final approval within 6 months following receipt of Planning Commission comments, the preliminary plan approval becomes null and void.
(1) Information required. A final site plan and application for a PUD shall contain the following information:
(a) A site plan meeting all requirements of § 151.023(D);
(b) A separately delineated specification of all deviations from this chapter which would otherwise be applicable to the uses and development proposed in the absence of §§ 151.125 et seq.;
(c) A specific schedule of the intended development and construction details, including phasing or timing;
(d) A specific schedule of the general improvements to constitute a part of the development, including, without limitation, lighting, signage, the mechanisms designed to reduce noise, utilities, and visual screening features;
(e) A specification of the exterior building materials with respect to the structures proposed in the project; and
(f) Signatures of all parties having an interest in the property.
(2) Planning Commission action. The final plan shall constitute an application to amend this chapter, and shall be noticed for public hearing as a zoning amendment before the Planning Commission, and otherwise acted upon by the Planning Commission, and the Village Council, as provided by law.
(c) Denial. Upon finding that the final plan does not meet the criteria and standards set forth in §§ 151.125 and 151.126, the Planning Commission shall recommend denial to the Village Council. The Planning Commission shall, to the extent it deems appropriate, submit detailed recommendations relative to the planned unit development project, including, without limitation, recommendations with respect to matters on which the Village Council must exercise discretion.
(3) Village Council action. Upon receiving a recommendation from the Planning Commission, the Village Council shall review the final plan. Taking into consideration the recommendations of the Planning Commission and the criteria and standards set forth in §§ 151.125 and 151.126, the Village Council shall approve, table, or deny the final plan. Prior to approval of a final plan, the Village Council shall require all standards and conditions of approval to be incorporated in a development agreement. The agreement shall be prepared by the Village Attorney, approved by the Village Council, and signed by both the village and the applicant.
