F. 
Development Plan.
1. 
Development plan — intent. The Village of Airport Drive recognizes that the very nature of land development creates the potential for traffic congestion, overcrowding, adverse visual and environmental impacts and health problems. The Village, nevertheless, also strives to promote quality growth while stabilizing the established residential patterns of the area. The preparation, consideration and approval of a development plan will help insure that:
a. 
The intent of the zoning regulations is achieved:
b. 
The potential adverse impact upon neighboring property owners is minimized; and
c. 
The subject property is developed, given all relevant considerations, in such a manner as to provide its owner with viable and productive use while providing for the general health, safety and welfare of the Village as a whole. When the area to be developed in "C-3" Planned Shopping Center District does not comply with minimum area size requirement of Subsection (C)(1), the tailored development plan standards and guideline and review criteria of Subsections (F)(5) and (7) shall apply. The Village seeks to insure that any location that may be developed with intense urban use shall be subject to development plan review and consideration by the Village Board of Trustees.
2. 
Development plan — discretion. In furtherance of these objectives, the Board of Trustees is hereby given discretion to approve, amend, modify or deny development plans based upon the scale and dimensions of surrounding and exiting buildings; the coordination of off-street parking improvements with the neighboring parcels to minimize the use of land for parking; the screening of parking lots from view as seen from the public right-of-way; the potential for integration and interface of the proposed development with adjacent existing and planned development; and the ascetic appearance of the development, both towards the public right-of-way and common parking areas, to minimize adverse impact upon neighboring and surrounding properties as well as the approval criteria of Subsection (F)(7)(c).
3. 
Development plan — when required. A development plan shall be submitted with every application for rezoning of a parcel of land to the "C-3" Planned Shopping Center District. With respect to any parcel of land that is already zoned "C-3" Planned Shopping Center District, no building permit shall be issued for construction on the parcel until a development plan has been approved by the Village in accordance with the requirement and procedures of this Subsection. In either instance, the development plan shall comply with the regulations set forth in this Section. In no event shall a building permit be issued for any construction on a parcel in the "C-3" Planned Shopping Center District until a development plan has been approved and all construction must be in substantial conformity with the approved development plan.
4. 
Development plan — application contents and submission requirement. A complete development plan shall be submitted to the Board of Trustees simultaneous with the submission of a rezoning application to the "C-3" Planned Shopping Center District, but no later than twenty (20) days before the hearing before the Zoning Commission on the application. The development plan and the items submitted in support shall include the following data, details and supporting plans that are found relevant to the proposal.

Buildings within the "C-3" Planned Shopping Center District shall meet the following standards:
(1) 
Roof top equipment shall be screened from view from the ground at any point on an adjacent parcel with vertical extensions of the building walls or parapets or other architectural design features. Raised exterior walls or screens should be designed to enclose groups of equipment. Wall materials on the extensions of the building walls or parapets should be compatible with or identical with the predominate opaque material on the exterior of the building.
(2) 
Buildings shall be arranged and internal traffic and pedestrian circulation and ingress to and egress from the development shall be designed on the site in such a way as to insure safe motor vehicle movements and encourage a pedestrian friendly environment within the planned shopping center.
(3) 
The form and proportion of the buildings shall be consistent or compatible with the scale, form and proportion of existing development within the area.
(4) 
The use of unusual shapes, colors and other characteristics that cause new buildings to attract excessive attention to them shall not be allowed.
(5) 
Architectural design should create visual interest through the use of different textures, complimentary colors, shadow lines and contrasting shapes.
(6) 
Monotony of design in single or multiple building projects should be avoided. Variation of detail, form and siding shall be used to provide visual interest.
(7) 
Careful consideration to durable materials, proportions in shapes emphasizing the importance of roofs and entrances and embracing elements of overall design is important.
(8)

The developer will have the burden of demonstrating the reasons for differing treatment on different sides.
(10) 
External lighting shall be such that it does not shine directly onto adjacent properties.
(11) 
Appropriate landscaping shall be used to complement and enhance the building's design, color and material. The perimeter shall be extensively landscaped, provided that the landscaping shall be designed so that it will not be an obstacle to integration with adjacent development.
b. 
Development plan — standards and guidelines — sites not meeting the minimum area requirements of Subsection (C)(1). Buildings within the "C-3" Planned Shopping Center District shall meet the standards of Subsection (F)(5) and in addition buildings shall be arranged and internal traffic and pedestrian circulation and ingress to and egress from the development shall be designed on the site in such a way as to encourage interface with any existing adjacent development and with undeveloped adjacent parcels and in such a manner as to provide the opportunity for adjacent developments to be integrated with the development in the "C-3" Planned Shopping Center District.
6. 
Development plan — modification of underlying district regulations.
a. 
Any development plan may propose modification to any "C-3" Planned Shopping Center District regulation. Development plans proposing modifications shall be accompanied by a letter outlining the proposed modification(s) and the reason(s) therefore.
b. 
The Zoning Commission may recommend approval and the Village Board of Trustees may approve a development plan that modifies one (1) or more of the restrictions or regulations found in this Chapter, including the area requirements of Subsection (C) and the standards and guidelines of Subsection (G). Allowed uses in the underlying zoning district may not, pursuant to this Subsection, be expanded to include uses not otherwise allowed, except that residential uses may be allowed on the second (2nd) or higher story of a structure containing an authorized use(s) on the first (1st) story.
c. 
No separate vote on proposed modifications is required by this Subsection. It is the intent of this Subsection that the development plan be evaluated to determine if, as a whole, it is consistent with the review criteria referred to and set forth in this Subsection and the purposes of this Section. Action to approve the development plan shall constitute acceptance of proposed modifications to the district regulations.
7. 
Development plan — review, consideration and action.

Treatment that is uniform on all sides will be deemed to meet the requirements of this principle. Adjacent land uses, visibility from public streets and use of screening devices are critical to be considered when varying this treatment. The developer will have the burden of demonstrating the reasons for differing treatment on different sides.
j. 
External lighting shall be such that it does not sign directly onto adjacent properties.
k. 
Appropriate landscaping shall be used to complement and enhance the building's design, color and material. The perimeter shall be extensively landscaped, provided that the landscaping shall be designed so that it will not be an obstacle to integration with adjacent development.

6. 
Modification of underlying district regulations.
a. 
Any development plan may propose modification to any "C-4" Compact Planned Shopping Center District regulation. Development plans proposing modifications shall be accompanied by a letter outlining the proposed modification(s) and the reason(s) therefore.
b. 
The Zoning Commission may recommend approval and the Village Board of Trustees may approve a development plan that modifies one (1) or more of the restrictions or regulations found in this Chapter, including the area requirements of Subsection (C) and the standards and guidelines of Subsection (G). Allowed uses in the underlying zoning district may not, pursuant to this Subsection, be expanded to include uses not otherwise allowed, except that residential uses may be allowed on the second (2nd) or higher story of a structure containing an authorized use(s) on the first (1st) story.
c. 
No separate vote on proposed modifications is required by this Subsection. It is the intent of this Subsection that the development plan be evaluated to determine if, as a whole, it is consistent with the review criteria referred to and set forth in this Subsection and the purposes of the Section. Action to approve the development plan shall constitute acceptance of proposed modifications to the district regulations.
7. 
Review, consideration and action.
a. 
Development plan applications shall be reviewed, considered and acted upon in accordance with the procedures of Section 400.060.

A. 
Intent And Purpose Of The District. The purpose of a "PD" Overlay District is to provide for elements of flexibility in design, placement, arrangement, bulk and other considerations involved in the applicable overlay district; to provide a framework within which the structures and uses in the overlay district may be interrelated with adjacent development and areas; and to maintain the desired overall intensity of land use, desired population densities and desired areas of open space. The use of overlay district procedures is intended to encourage large-scale development, efficient development of small tracts, innovative and imaginative site planning and conservation of resources. The Board of Trustees, after hearing before the Zoning Commission, may determine or condition its approval of a development plan upon reasonable restrictions for the good health, safety and welfare of the Village.
B. 
Use Of The Planned Overlay District.
1. 
Planned developments are groupings of structures or sites that are planned as an integrated unit or cluster on property under unified control at the time of zoning. The sale, subdivision or other partition of the site after zoning approval does not exempt the project or portions thereof from complying with the development standards and other conditions that were committed to at the time of the rezoning. The Planned Development District must always be used in conjunction with one (1) of the other zoning districts known as the "underlying district". The requirements of the "PD" District shall be in addition to the requirements of the underlying district, except that the "PD" District may modify some of the regulations of the underlying district in specific situations. A "PD" District may be used in conjunction with any of the other zoning districts or with any combination of districts.
2. 
An application of rezoning to the "PD" District shall include a preliminary development plan and may include a concurrent request to change the underlying zoning classification. If the rezoning is approved, the new district shall include the designation of the underlying district followed by "PD". For example, a Planned Development District of a "C-2" District shall be known as "C-2-PD"
3. 
Approval of the rezoning based on the preliminary development plan shall allow the applicant to submit a final development plan for approval. No structure or occupancy permit shall be issued until a final development plan has been approved. The use of the "PD" District shall be separate from the subdivision regulations of the Village and the development plans required by the "PD" District shall not be construed as plats. It is recommended that the subdivision process follow the rezoning/preliminary plan approval, but precede the approval of the final development plan. Resubdivision may be a prerequisite to approval of the final development plan.
C. 
Permitted Uses. Any use permitted in the underlying zone may be permitted. The uses permitted may be voluntarily restricted by the applicant or restricted as a condition of approval by the Board of Trustees.
D. 
Use Regulations.
1. 
The proposed development shall provide access to the major street system in such a way that the traffic generated by the development will not cause an unreasonably hazardous condition or inconvenience in the area.
2. 
Structures and traffic shall be arranged so that all principal structures are accessible to emergency vehicles.
3. 
Parking shall be provided in a manner which reduces to a minimum its adverse physical impact in the area. Screening parking areas with landscaping or walls, breaking parking areas into smaller units by introducing landscaped areas or other physical separators are suggested approaches. The parking areas should be appropriately spaced to serve those units they represent.
4. 
The availability of services and location of public utilities shall have the approval of each agency involved. Evidence to this effect shall be presented with the preliminary development plans.
5. 
Approval of the final development plan may be conditioned by the Zoning Commission or Board of Trustees to minimize any negative impact on the community.
E. 
Application For Rezoning. A petition to change to a "PD" Planned District shall be filed with the Village Clerk, along with the filing fee as set forth by separate ordinance. A preliminary development plan shall be attached and shall include the elements set forth in these regulations. The process for approval shall be the same as for any rezoning as provided by these regulations.
F. 
Approval Procedure. The approval by the Board of Trustees of the preliminary development plan and the concurrent rezoning to the "PD" District shall be preceded by the publication and mailing of notice, a public hearing and a recommendation by the Zoning Commission. If the Board of Trustees disagrees with the recommendation, the application shall be returned to the Zoning Commission for reconsideration. Approval of the preliminary development plan shall be valid for two (2) years from the date of its approval. The filing and approval of a final development plan for any phase of the area contained in the preliminary plan shall extend the period of validity an additional two (2) years. Once approved, the zoning classification can only be changed through rezoning and cannot be changed by expiration of the preliminary development plan.
G. 
Preliminary Development Plan. The preliminary development plan shall be prepared at a scale dimension of not more than one (1) inch equals one hundred (100) feet and shall include:
1. 
Boundaries of the project with dimensions to scale;

11. 
Ten (10) copies shall be submitted.
H. 
Final Development Plan. The final development plan shall be prepared in the same manner and include the same type of information as the preliminary development plan (updated to show final sizes, dimensions and arrangement) with the following additions:
1. 
Contour lines shall show finished grading only;
2. 
The landscaping plan shall show the size and type of each tree, shrub and ground cover; and
3. 
Drawings showing the size, appearance and method of illumination for each sign.
The final development plan shall substantially conform to the approved preliminary plan; shall be in final form for the issuance of a building permit; shall have been previously reviewed by the Village Clerk; and shall include a construction schedule. A final approval of the Board of Trustees shall authorize construction to begin according to the construction schedule providing all appropriate permits have been received. Construction of at least the first (1st) stage of development shall begin within three (3) years from the date the ordinance of the zoning change was published in the newspaper. If construction does not begin within this period and no effort is made for an extension of time by the owner, the final development plan shall be voided.
I. 
Building Permits. On final approval by the Board of Trustees, the owner shall provide five (5) copies of the approved final development plan to the Village Clerk. The Village Clerk shall issue building permits only in accordance with the approved final development plan.
J. 
Amendments. If any substantial variation or rearrangement of structures, parking area and drives, entrances, heights or open spaces is requested by the applicant, the applicant shall proceed by following the same procedure previously followed and outlined in the preliminary development plan.
K. 
Open Space. The Board of Trustees may require the provision of open space to buffer dissimilar uses, to protect environmentally sensitive areas or to counterbalance any reduction in lot area, yard size or bulk limitations.
1. 
Open space requirements. If the Board of Trustees requires open space, the Village and the applicant shall enter into an agreement providing for the maintenance of the open space. Such agreement shall include provision for default, cure by the Village and enforcement.
2. 
Disposition of open space. The applicant shall not be dissolved or permitted to otherwise dispose of any open space by sale or otherwise without first offering to dedicate the same to the Village.
The development plan process shall be required prior to any rezoning or issuance of a building permit for other than a one-family dwelling.
L. 
Time Limit. A site plan approval for a "PD" District shall expire automatically unless a building permit is taken within twelve (12) months after the approved date for commencement to such site plan.
