[Amended 12-22-2005 by Ord. No. 05-22]
At the time when the Approving Board considers the application and determines that the application is complete and ready for public hearing, the Approving Board shall set a date for the public hearing and notify the applicant of said date. After such notification by the Approving Board, the applicant shall follow the procedures established in this chapter with respect to the notice of hearing. See §
11-34.
The Approving Board may require the filing of an amended application
which shall proceed as in the case of the original application for
development. No additional application fee shall be required. Completeness
review shall be at the discretion of the Approving Board. The time
within which the Approving Board shall review the amended application
and make its determination shall commence as of the date of the filing
of the amended plat. If the applicant fails to submit an amended application
within the original time for review authorized by this chapter, the
Approving Board shall be obligated to act on the original application.
If, at the discretion of the Approving Board, the change or changes
are considered minor in nature, the applicant may be given approval
subject to the submission of an amended plan indicating the changes.
The Approving Board shall approve, conditionally approve or
deny the preliminary major subdivision application of 10 lots or less
within 45 days of the determination by the Approving Board that the
application is complete unless the applicant shall extend the period
of time within which the Approving Board may act. The Approving Board
shall approve, conditionally approve or deny the preliminary major
subdivision application of more than 10 lots within 95 days of the
determination by the Approving Board that the application is complete
unless the applicant shall extend the period of time within which
the Approving Board may act. Failure of the Approving Board to act
within the time prescribed shall constitute preliminary major approval,
and a certificate of the Administrative Officer as to the failure
of the Approving Board to act shall be issued on request of the applicant,
and it shall be sufficient in lieu of the written endorsement or other
evidence of approval herein required and shall be accepted by the
county recording officer for purposes of filing subdivision plats.
The Approving Board shall include findings of fact and conclusions
based on the testimony and documentary evidence submitted and shall
reduce its determination to writing in accordance with law.
If the Approving Board favorably acts on a preliminary plat,
the Chairperson and the Secretary of the Approving Board shall affix
their signatures to the plat with a notation that it has received
preliminary approval and shall return the same to the applicant for
compliance with final approval requirements. Where conditional approval
is granted, the Chairperson and the Secretary of the Approving Board
shall not affix their signatures to the plat until all conditions
required for approval have been complied with.
After the approval or denial of a preliminary major subdivision,
copies of the signed plat and/or resolution of memorialization shall
be distributed to the following, where appropriate:
C. Zoning Officer/Code Enforcement Officer.
E. Secretary of the Planning Board.
F. Warren County Planning Board.
