Part 6 FINAL PLAN

[Ord. 1223-99, 4/12/1999, § 601]

This Part lists the requirements for final plans for a major subdivision or any land development. See the requirements of Part 7 for a project that only involves: (i) a minor subdivision; (ii) a lot line adjustment; or (iii) minor corrections or minor revisions to a previously approved plan as specified in § 22-704.

§ 22-602 Submission and Review Procedure.

[Ord. 1223-99, 4/12/1999, § 602]

Final Plan Submission Required.

A final plan submission for each major subdivision or land development must be filed by the applicant and reviewed in accordance with the provisions of this Part 6.

A final plan shall only be submitted after a preliminary plan has been approved by the Commission, if a preliminary plan is required.

Final Plan Submission Deadline.

An applicant shall file a final plan submission within five years from the date of the approval of the preliminary plan by the Commission.

Failure to comply with this requirement shall render the preliminary plan submission null and void and a new preliminary plan submission must be filed.

Filing and Distribution.

The applicant shall file with the plans administrator at least 14 days prior to a regular Planning Commission meeting (not including workshop meetings) all of the required plans, information and fees listed in § 22-603 of this Chapter.

The plans administrator shall forward applicable plans to the following agencies to seek their comments prior to final plan approval:

(1)

Gettysburg Municipal Authority.

(2)

Borough Engineer; provided, prior to the next regularly scheduled Planning Commission meeting.

(3)

Borough Fire Chief (layout and utility plan, if not reviewed at the preliminary plan level and if deemed appropriate by the Planning Commission or plans administrator).

(4)

The appropriate Borough staff (including one official "file" copy of all materials submitted by the applicant).

(5)

The Borough Planning Commission (including copies of the application form, at least one copy of the preliminary plan checklist, several copies of the preliminary plan and at least one copy of the supporting documents), with such information provided at or before the next regularly scheduled meeting of the Commission.

Applicant's Distribution. It is the applicant's responsibility to:

(1)

Make agreements with the appropriate utility companies.

(2)

Provide information to PennDOT that is required for any needed permit for access to or work within a State road right-of-way.

(3)

Provide information to DEP or other agencies for any permits that might be required.

(4)

Submit a copy of the soil erosion and sedimentation plan to the County Conservation District and pay their required review fees, if earth disturbance is proposed, and if such erosion control plan was not approved at the preliminary plan level.

(5)

Provide a copy of the plans to the County Planning Commission, after authorization by the Borough and the appropriate form is completed, with signature of the plans administrator.

The filing of the final plan shall conform with the approved preliminary plan and any conditions and changes recommended by the Borough during the preliminary plan review.

Revisions. A detailed list of revisions from a previously submitted plan shall be provided whenever a revised plan is submitted. The developer's plan prepare shall certify that the list of revisions is complete.

Determination of Completeness by Commission.

Based upon the initial review of the plans administrator and/or the Borough Engineer, the Commission shall have authority, at its first regularly scheduled meeting after the submission is filed in a timely fashion, to determine that a submission is significantly incomplete and therefore to refuse to review the submission further and to do one or more of the following:

(1)

Not accept the submission, indicating deficiencies in writing, and return the fee (minus the costs of any Borough review) to the applicant.

(2)

Accept the submission as being filed for review on the condition that the applicant shall file such additional required materials and information to the staff or appropriate agency or person within a certain number of days from the date of such acceptance.

(3)

Table the acceptance of the submission until the next Planning Commission meeting where the applicant has met all of the submittal requirements and has filed such materials within the required time period prior to the meeting. The ninety-day time limit for action shall not begin until the plan is accepted as complete.

(4)

Reject the submission for just cause, such as the submission being significantly incomplete.

If the Commission determines that the submission is significantly complete, as filed and as required, the Commission shall accept the plans and may begin its review.

If the Commission determines that a final plan submission, as filed, departs substantially from the approved preliminary plan, the Commission may classify the submission as a revised preliminary plan (with the applicable review fees required) and process the application as such.

Review by Borough Engineer.

Within 30 days from the date the plans are duly submitted for review (unless granted an extension by the Commission or unless the plans are significantly incomplete), the Borough Engineer should review the engineering considerations of the preliminary plan and prepare an initial report on such considerations to the Commission.

The Borough Engineer may make-additional reports and recommendations to the Commission during review of the plan. Matters that should be dealt with directly by the Commission should be listed separately from technical engineering considerations. These policy concerns should be made available to the Commission at least four days prior to each meeting.

The applicant and/or his/her plan preparer shall make reasonable efforts to resolve technical engineering considerations outside of and prior to Planning Commission meetings. The Borough Engineer may require the applicant or his/her plan preparer to meet with the Borough Engineer for this purpose.

A copy of findings of the Borough Engineer should be sent or handed in person to the applicant or his/her representative by the plans administrator.

Review by Commission. The Planning Commission shall accomplish the following within the time limitations of Pennsylvania Municipalities Planning Code (unless the applicant grants a written time extension).

Review applicable reports received from official review agencies.

Determine whether the final plan submission meets the requirements of this Chapter and other applicable ordinances.

Require some/all of any needed revisions needed for the submission to conform to this Chapter or that would generally improve the plan.

Approve, conditionally approve or disapprove the final plan within the time required by the Pennsylvania Municipalities Planning Code.

Decision by the Commission.

Notice to Applicant. The decision of the Commission shall be in writing and shall be communicated to the applicant personally or mailed to him/her at his/her last known address not later than 15 days following the decision.

Dedications.

(1)

The approval of the final plan by the Commission shall not by itself constitute an acceptance of the dedication of any street or other proposed public way, space or area, unless the such acceptance is specified at such time.

(2)

Any such acceptance of dedication shall only occur after formal action of the Borough at such time.

(3)

As part of an improvements agreement, if Borough Council elects to accept lands offered for dedication, the submission shall be accompanied by duly executed instruments of conveyance to the Borough. Such instruments shall state that the title thereof is free and unencumbered.

Disapproval. When a final plan submission is disapproved, the decision shall specify defects found in the submission, shall describe requirements which have not been met and shall cite the provisions of the statute or ordinance relied upon in each case.

Conditions. The Commission may attach reasonable conditions to an approval to ensure the carrying out of the comprehensive plan, this Chapter, other Borough Ordinances and State laws and regulations.

Development in Stages.

If requested by the applicant, the Commission may permit the undertaking of the required improvements and the preparation of the final plan to be completed in a series of sections or stages, each covering a portion of the proposed subdivision or land development as shown on the preliminary plan.

If final plans are to be filed in sections or stages, each section or stage shall provide sufficient access, utilities and amenities to allow the development to properly function if future stages are not built.

The boundaries of phases and the timing of related improvements shall be subject to the approval of the Commission.

Statement of Approval. At the request of the applicant, the Borough shall furnish the applicant with a signed copy of a resolution or motion indicating approval of the applicant's final plan contingent upon the applicant obtaining a satisfactory financial security. The final plan will not be signed by Borough officials until a satisfactory financial security is presented. The resolution of contingent approval shall expire and be deemed to be revoked if the financial security agreement is not executed within 90 days, unless a written extension is granted by the Borough.
