(A) Review required. Prior to the establishment of any Commercial Service Center District or enlargement of zone district boundaries, the Town Council shall by resolution adopt a general development plan for the proposed zone district. The development plan may be prepared by an applicant for the establishment of the zone district or may be prepared by the town. The development plan shall be submitted to the Planning and Environmental Commission for review, and the Planning and Environmental Commission shall submit its findings and recommendations on the plan to the Town Council.
(B) Plan content. The Administrator shall establish the submittal requirements for a development plan application. A complete list of the submittal requirements shall be maintained by the Administrator and filed in the Department of Community Development. Certain submittal requirements may be waived and/or modified by the Administrator and/or the reviewing body if it is demonstrated by the applicant that the information and materials required are not relevant to the proposed development or applicable to the planning documents that comprise the Vail Comprehensive Plan. The Administrator and/or the reviewing body may require the submission of additional plans, drawings, specifications, samples and other materials if deemed necessary to properly evaluate the proposal.
(C) Plan to be guide. The development plan shall be used as a guide for the subsequent development of sites and the design and location of buildings and grounds within the zone district. All plans subsequently approved by the Design Review Board in accordance with Chapter 11 of this title shall substantially conform to the development plan adopted by the Town Council.
