In connection with the submission to the City Planning Commission of subdivision plans, due consideration shall be given by the owner thereof, to the allocation of areas reasonably suitable for schools, playgrounds or park or recreational areas to be dedicated or deeded to public use. In determining such reasonable suitability, consideration shall be given to such factors as the topography of the area to be so allocated, the major physical characteristics of such area, the location thereof in relation to the remaining area of the subdivision, the shape of the area to be so allocated and other similar considerations relative to a determination of whether or not the area to be so allocated can be reasonably used for schools, playgrounds or park or recreation areas. If the Commission, applying the standards set forth in this section, finds that the area to be so allocated for schools, playgrounds or park and recreation areas is reasonably suitable for such uses, and if it further finds that the area to be so allocated is equal to or greater than the minimum area required by Section 1111.10 to be dedicated or deeded to the City for public park or recreational uses, the requirements of Section 1111.10 shall not be applicable to such subdivision and there shall be no requirement that land must be dedicated or deeded to the City for public park or recreational uses as a condition precedent to the approval of a subdivision by the Commission.
