The purpose of this Part is to allow the creation of one
special lot which will not require the same frontage or road requirements
as other lots created through this Chapter.
[Ord. 101, 9/14/1993, § 1001]
Only a final plan submission is required for a special use subdivision. The developer or subdivider shall file five copies of the subdivision plan with the requisite fee and application form with the Commission. If the developer plans to build within one year from the date of approval, he shall submit evidence of compliance with the Pennsylvania Sewage Facilities Act requirements on sewage disposal. The developer or subdivider will submit a request for a variance as outlined in Part 7 of this Chapter.
[Ord. 101, 9/14/1993, § 1002]
The Planning Commission will review the plans and approve or
disapprove the same within 60 days, or it shall be deemed the plan
has been approved. The review will basically be concerned with the
following items:
A.
That the future street pattern of the area will be considered:
(1)
This Section allows for the creation of a lot without regard
for the street design requirements of this Chapter provided the lot
will include a fifty-foot wide access. This access need not be improved
to the standards of this Chapter. The plan will include a note that
the Township has no responsibility, street improvement or maintenance
to this lot until such time that the street is improved to the standards
required by this Chapter. For future land development, it will be
necessary for this street to be improved to the standards required
by this Chapter and that this street be dedicated to the Township.
B.
Other factors such as geology, terrain, location in floodplain, etc.
C.
That the development does not create problems in the design of future
utilities.
[Ord. 101, 9/14/1993, § 1003]
After making any necessary changes, the subdivider may resubmit
the plan for approval.
[Ord. 101, 9/14/1993, § 1004]
If the plan is found to conform to this Chapter, the Planning
Commission shall approve and sign the plan, and submit it to the Board
of Supervisors for approval. After approval by the Board of Supervisors,
the subdivider shall record the plan in the office of the Northumberland
County Recorder of Deeds within 90 days and furnish the Board of Supervisors
proof thereof.
[Ord. 101, 9/14/1993, § 1005]
All minor subdivision plans shall conform to the following:
A.
Title Block. The title block shall show the name of the subdivision,
municipality in which located, name and address of the owner, name,
address and seal of the engineer or surveyor, and the date of preparation.
B.
Location Sketch. A location sketch shall be shown, north oriented
to the top of the drawing, showing the subdivision in relationship
to contiguous roads and land. A USGS map at a scale of one inch equals
2,000 feet may be used as source information. A tract map shall also
be provided on a scale the same as the Northumberland County tax assessment
maps and shall show the proposed subdivision and residue land.
C.
Plan Information. Shall be as outlined in the preliminary plan and
final plan requirements Sections of this Chapter, as applicable.
D.
Accompanying data shall be submitted as required by this Chapter.
E.
Submission, distribution, review and action by the Planning Commission
and Board of Supervisors shall be in accordance with § 305
of this Chapter.
[Ord. 101, 9/14/1993, § 1006]
No further subdivision of a special use subdivision will be
permitted unless it can fully meet the requirement of this or subsequent
ordinances. Any special use lots will require a fifty-foot wide access
separate from any other such access on any other (including adjacent)
lot.
