Where shown on the Master Plan or otherwise deemed essential by the Plan Commission, upon consideration of the particular type of development proposed in the subdivision, the Plan Commission may specify provision for schools and for recreational facilities, including neighborhood parks, playgrounds and public access to water frontage. Such provision may include a requirement that not more than 10% of the gross area subdivided be reserved for use as a public park or playground for a period of one year and that such reservation be extended for an additional six months if, during the reservation year, a local governmental agency concerned passes a resolution expressing its intent to acquire the land so reserved for school or recreational facilities.
