The required amount of common open space land reserved under a planned unit development shall either be held in corporate ownership by owners of the project for the use of each owner who buys property within the development or be dedicated to the City and retained as common open space for parks, recreation and related uses. All land dedicated to the City must meet the City Development Commission's requirements as to size, shape and location. Public utility and similar easements, storm water detention/retention areas and right-of-ways for watercourses and other similar channels are not acceptable for common open space dedication to the City unless such land or right- of-way is usable as trail or other similar purpose and approved by the Commission.
The responsibility for the maintenance of all open spaces shall be specified by the developer before approval of the final development plan.
