Suitability. No land shall be subdivided for residential, commercial
or industrial use which is held unsuitable for such use by the Common
Council, upon the recommendation of the Plan Commission, for reason
of flooding, inadequate drainage, adverse soil or rock formation,
unfavorable topography or any other feature likely to be harmful to
the health, safety, or welfare of the future residents of the proposed
subdivision or of the community. The Common Council, in applying the
provisions of this section, shall in writing recite the particular
facts upon which it bases its conclusion that the land is not suitable
for the proposed use and afford the subdivider an opportunity to present
evidence regarding such unsuitability if he so desires. Thereafter
the Common Council, upon the recommendation of the Plan Commission,
may affirm, modify, or withdraw its determination of unsuitability.
