A planned unit development shall be permitted when it is in keeping with existing natural features and when it is designed to preserve such features or to make more efficient use of land and thereby better serve the general health and welfare of the community. The purpose of allowing a subdivider to develop an area as a planned unit development is to provide a variety of housing types with varying yard setbacks, building placement and the provision of open space.
It is the intent of these Subdivision Regulations that subdivision review be carried out as an integral part of the review of a planned unit development under the Zoning Code. The preliminary planned unit development plan required by the Zoning Code will, for the purposes of these Subdivision Regulations, be reviewed by the Planning Board for its conformity to the Zoning Code and these Subdivision Regulations. The preliminary planned unit development plan shall, therefore, constitute the preliminary plat for the entire area to be developed.
Such development may require modification, subject to Planning Board approval, to conform to Chapters 1236 and 1238.
Within twelve months after approval of the preliminary planned unit development plan, the subdivider shall have submitted a final plat for the first phase to be developed. Thereafter, a final plat shall be submitted for each additional phase of the planned unit development to be developed. Final plats shall be in accordance with the procedural requirements of Chapters 1226 and 1228.
Upon completion of all the required public improvements, the subdivider or developer shall request, in writing, a final inspection by the Director of Public Service, as required under Ohio R.C. 711.091.
