(a) All subdivision plats shall conform to design standards that will encourage sound development patterns. In particular, the subdivision plat shall conform to the principles, standards, policies, and proposals which are specified in the Official Land Use Plan for Union. Ohio. In addition, land to be subdivided shall be of such character that it can be used safely for building purposes without danger to health or peril from fire, flood, or other menace.
(b) Existing physical and cultural features which would add value to residential development, such as trees, water courses, historic sites, and similar irreplaceable assets, shall be preserved insofar as possible, through careful design of the subdivision. The subdivider may place restrictions on any of the land contained in the subdivision greater than those required by the Zoning Ordinance, but such restrictions shall be indicated on the deed. No subdivision shall be located in the S-FP District as designated on the Union Official Zoning District Map.
