VESTED PROPERTY RIGHT. The right to undertake and complete the development and use of property under the terms and conditions of the site specific development plan, and shall be deemed established upon approval of a site specific development plan.
(Ord. 2(1991) § 1; Ord. 29(2005) § 41)
No site specific development plan shall be approved by the Town Council or any town board or commission as applicable, until after a public hearing proceeded by written notice of such hearing, in accordance with Chapter 3 of this title. Such notice may, at the option of the town, be combined with the notice for any other hearing to be held in conjunction with the hearing on the site specific development plan for the subject property. At such hearing, persons with an interest in the subject matter of the hearing shall have an opportunity to present relevant or material evidence as determined by the Town Council or town board or commission as applicable.
(Ord. 2(1991) § 1)
The action of the Town Council or town board or commission as applicable for approval of a site specific development plan shall be in the same form as that required to approve any request being considered for the subject property in conjunction with the hearing on the site specific development plan, such action being either by ordinance, resolution or motion as the case may be. If any action by any board or commission is appealed to or called up by the Town Council, approval shall be deemed to occur when a final decision of the Town Council is rendered approving the site specific development plan. The approval may include such terms and conditions as may be reasonably necessary to protect the public health, safety and welfare, and the failure to abide by any such terms and conditions may, at the option of the Town Council or town board or commission as applicable, and after public hearing, result in the forfeiture of vested property rights.
(Ord. 2(1991) § 1)
