1269.01 REQUIREMENTS; USES; STANDARDS.
   (a)   Purposes. The purpose of the ADD-2, Austin Development District 2, is to implement that certain Court Order, entered by the Montgomery County Common Pleas Court litigation between the then owners of the ADD-2, Austin Development District property, GCC AUSTIN, LTD. Wooster Associates, and Victory 4, LLC, and the City of Springboro, Ohio, Case No. 2003-CV-1166 (Court Order). Among other things, the Court Order establishes a process to be followed in the development of the ADD-2, Austin Development District.
   (b)   Definitions.
      (1)   Development Parcel. That certain parcel consisting of approximately 54 acres +/- identified as "Development Parcel" as set forth on the attached Map A subject to change pursuant to the Court Order. If the Development Parcel changes pursuant to the Court Order, this subsection (b)(1) and Map A shall be amended to reflect said change.
      (2)   TIF Roads. Map A attached, shows schematically a system of public streets anticipated to be constructed upon the Development Parcel and other property. A portion of those streets are identified on Map A as "TIF Roads". The locations of the TIF Roads may be changed pursuant to the Court Order, provided that the TIF Roads as so relocated shall provide public street access from Miamisburg Springboro Pike to the contiguous property located to the southwest of the Development Parcel that is at least substantially as direct as the access provided by the TIF Roads shown on Map A. The TIF Roads shall be dedicated, constructed and paid for as provided for in Section 13 of the Court Order.
      (3)   Comprehensive Plan. The Court Order constitutes an amendment to the City's Comprehensive Land Use Master Plan, only as it relates to the Development Parcel, to provide for land uses and procedures for implementing those uses on the Development Parcel consistent with the uses provided for on Map A attached. This Chapter 1269 implements the City's Comprehensive Land Use Master Plan as amended by the Court Order.
      (4)   PUD Development Standards. The development standards for the Development Parcel are those provided for in the PUD Planned Unit Development District of the Springboro Zoning Code in effect on September 3, 2004 and as described in Chapter 6 of the Austin Interchange Land Use and Development Plan-Final Draft dated May 13, 2004 (Austin Plan) except that, where the provisions of this Chapter 1269 of the Springboro Ordinances are less restrictive, more restrictive or otherwise in conflict with said development standards, the provisions of the Chapter 1269 shall control.
      (5)   Site Layout Plan. Map A constitutes the Site Layout Plan for the Development Parcel until the Site Layout Plan shown on Map A is amended by one or more POD Plan approvals hereinafter described, or is adjusted as otherwise set forth herein; and after one or more such amendments or adjustments, the Site Layout Plan approved by City Council as part of the most recent such amendment or adjustment. At all times the Site Layout Plan then in effect shall control development of the Development Parcel as the basis for approval of final development plans. Any changes in the boundaries of the Development Parcel pursuant to the Court Order shall result in adjustment of the Site Layout Plan to cause the "Hospitality/Restaurant/Office" designation on Map A to include the newly adjusted Development Parcel boundaries. Concurrently with the issuance by ODOT and/or Montgomery County of an access plan for Miamisburg/Springboro Pike or Springboro Pike which eliminates, relocates or reconfigures any of the Intersections or with any refusal by ODOT and/or Montgomery County to approve an Intersection or with any requirement by ODOT and/or Montgomery County that an Intersection be relocated or configured, the Site Layout Plan shall be adjusted to make changes consistent therewith to the road system and use designations on the Development Parcel. Each adjustment to the Site Layout Plan pursuant hereto shall be approved by City Council by motion as an administrative action. The Site Layout Plan:
         A.   Is compatible with the location, topographic, and other characteristics of the site and surrounding land uses;
         B.   Is carefully designed to support surrounding streets, utilities and other public improvements;
         C.   Represents an efficient and economic use of the land in view of the community's need for a balance of land uses; and
