After final approval, one translucent tracing and one cloth
print shall be filed with the Township Clerk. The original tracing
and one cloth print shall be returned to the applicant. The applicant
shall also submit to the Township Engineer and electronic (CAD) file
disk of the approved final plat. Copies of the final plat shall also
be filed with the Land Use Board and with the following:
C. The Board of Education of the local district.
G. Official issuing certificates for approved lots.
Upon final approval, such approval shall have the following
effect:
A. The zoning requirements applicable to the preliminary approval first granted and all other rights conferred upon the developer pursuant to §
470-22 of this chapter, whether conditionally or otherwise, shall not be changed for a period of two years after the date on which the resolution of final approval is adopted; provided that the rights conferred by this section shall expire if the plat has not been duly filed within the time period provided in §
470-27B of this chapter. If the developer has followed the standards prescribed for final approval, and has duly recorded the plat as required in §
470-27B of this chapter, the Land Use Board may extend such period of protection for extensions of one year but not to exceed three extensions.
B. In the case of a subdivision for a planned development of 50 acres or more or conventional subdivision for 150 acres or more, the Land Use Board may grant the rights referred to in Subsection
A above for such period of time, longer than two years, as shall be determined by the Land Use Board to be reasonable, taking into consideration the number of dwelling units and nonresidential floor area permissible under final approval; economic conditions; and the comprehensiveness of the development. The developer may apply for thereafter, and the Land Use Board may thereafter grant, an extension of final approval for such additional period of time as shall be determined by the Land Use Board to be reasonable, taking into consideration the number of dwelling units and nonresidential floor area permissible under final approval; the number of dwelling units and nonresidential floor area remaining to be developed; economic conditions; and the comprehensiveness of the development.
C. Whenever the Land Use Board grants an extension of final approval pursuant to Subsection
A or
B above and final approval has expired before the date on which the extension is granted, the extension shall begin on what would otherwise be the expiration date. The developer may apply for the extension either before or after what would otherwise be the expiration date.
D. The Land Use Board shall grant an extension of final approval for a period determined by the Board but not exceeding one year from what would otherwise be the expiration date, if the developer proves to the reasonable satisfaction of the Board that the developer was barred or prevented, directly or indirectly, from proceeding with the development because of delays in obtaining legally required approvals from other governmental entities and that the developer applied promptly for and diligently pursued these approvals. A developer shall apply for the extension before what would otherwise be the expiration date of final approval, or the 91st day after the developer receives the last legally required approval from other governmental entities, whichever occurs later. An extension granted pursuant to this paragraph shall not preclude the Land Use Board from granting an extension pursuant to Subsection
A or
B above.
