Notice for such hearing shall include reference to the development plans filed with the requested zoning change(s).

Basis for approval. No TND Traditional Neighborhood Development Overlay District approval shall be granted unless the Plan Commission shall find that the TND Traditional Neighborhood Development Overlay District is appropriate in the location proposed based upon its consideration of the following criteria:

Consistency with Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan required. That the proposed TND Overlay District:

Is consistent in all respects to the purpose and intent of the TND Overlay District, the TND Overlay District requirements as set forth in this section as well as other applicable sections of the Village Zoning Code, and to the spirit and intent of the Village Zoning Code;

Is in conformity with the adopted Village Comprehensive Plan, and elements thereof and including amendments thereto, for community development;

Would not be contrary to the general welfare and economic prosperity of the Village or the immediate neighborhood; and

Would have benefits and improved design of the resultant development justifying the establishment of a TND Overlay District.

Common open space provided to residents of the TND Overlay District area. Common open space is provided, consisting of land unoccupied by nonrecreational structures, buildings, streets, rights-of-way, minimum required lot areas, automobile parking lots, and designed and intended for the use and enjoyment of residents of a TND Traditional Neighborhood Development Overlay District.

Public facilities and services. The extent to which the proposed use will be served adequately by, or will provide for, essential public facilities and services such as highways, streets, parking spaces, police and fire protection, drainage structures, refuse disposal, water and sewers, and schools.

Community need. The extent of the community need for the proposed use at the proposed location in light of existing and proposed uses of a similar nature in the area, and the need to provide or maintain a proper mix of uses within the Village and within the immediate area of the proposed use. The Plan Commission shall not recommend to the Village Board the approval of any TND Traditional Neighborhood Development Overlay District unless it can find that the proposed use in the proposed location will not result in an over concentration either of a particular use within the Village or within the immediate area of the proposed use.

Effects of the proposed use. The extent to which the proposed use at the proposed location will, or may, have a substantial or undue adverse effect upon adjacent property, the character of the neighborhood, traffic conditions, parking, utility facilities, and other matters affecting the public health, safety, and general welfare.

Preservation and enhancement of neighboring land uses. The extent to which the proposed use and its design and landscaping will enhance and protect the existing character of neighboring land uses, if any, or enhance the community character of the Village.

Pedestrian and, public transportation linkages. The extent to which the proposed use will be served by, or will provide, proper pedestrian and public transportation linkages both within the immediate area of the development and with other parts of the Village, neighboring communities, or county.

Adequacy of public and private open space. The extent to which the proposed use will be served by, or will provide, adequate public and private open space both in the immediate vicinity of the proposed use and throughout the Village. The Plan Commission shall, in considering this criteria, consider the adequacy of such open spaces both as to site design and buffering and as to the open space needs of the permanent or transient population likely to be generated by the proposed use.
