A.
If the Planning Commission decides that the areas shown on acreage
proposed to be subdivided, or a part thereof, may not be subdivided
or disapproves a preliminary plan or final plat, the subdivider may
file with the Village Clerk a petition to the Village Board for review
of such decision of the Planning Commission, pointing out those parts
of the decision to which the subdivider objects. In such event, a
public hearing on the sufficiency or propriety of said acreage proposed
to be subdivided, or a part thereof, preliminary plan or final plat
shall be conducted by the Village Board, after notice thereof has
been mailed by the Village Clerk at least one week before the hearing
to the person or persons who requested the review; provided, however,
that any matter which was the subject of a previous hearing before
the Village Board in connection with the same proposed subdivision
shall not be the subject of a second hearing.

After the conclusion of any such hearing, the Village Board may affirm
or modify the order or decision of the Planning Commission or approve
the acreage proposed to be subdivided, or a part thereof, preliminary
plan or final plat. If the acreage proposed to be subdivided, or a
part thereof, or preliminary plan is so approved by the President
of the Village Board of Trustees, the subdivider shall proceed before
the Planning Commission with the next step provided by this chapter.

Variations.

The Planning Commission may recommend a variation from the requirements

cases when the tract to be subdivided is of such unusual size, shape
or character or is surrounded by such development or unusual conditions

result in substantial hardship or injustice or when a comprehensive
group housing development is proposed. In recommending any variation,
the Planning Commission shall take into account the nature of the
proposed use of land, the existing use of land in the vicinity, the
population in the proposed subdivision and the probable effect of
the proposed subdivision upon traffic conditions in the vicinity,
and shall recommend only those variations that will allow the subdivider
to develop his property in a reasonable manner and that will at the
same time preserve the general intent and spirit of this chapter and
protect the public welfare and interests of the Village and surrounding
area.
(2)
Application for any variation shall be submitted in writing by the
subdivider at the time the preliminary plan is filed and shall state
fully the grounds for the application and the facts relied upon by
the petitioner. The Planning Commission shall consider such application
at the review of the preliminary plan and give its written recommendations
thereon, with the reasons therefor, at the time of its approval or
disapproval of said plan.
