A. Where more than fifteen (15) years have elapsed since it was initially developed, or wholly and substantially redeveloped, and such building or property is not in compliance with current village code requirements, including, but not limited to, parking, dumpster enclosures, signage, landscaping and architectural compliance, a site plan shall be developed, in conformance with section 11-4-11-5 of this chapter, to update the site and building to meet current village code requirements to the extent feasible in consideration of the existing improvements present on the site.
B. Site improvements required of any portion of a multi-tenant property under common ownership (such as a shopping center), shall be proportionate to the size of the developed or redeveloped tenant space relative to the whole ownership and such improvements may be deferred until such time as a grouping of improvements may be constructed, subject to and in accordance with approval by the village and shall be implemented through the construction of site improvements within eighteen (18) months of the plan approval, or as otherwise approved by the village board, the community development director, or his designee.
