or in part or phases. Following approval of the general implementation
plan, the applicant shall submit a specific implementation plan to
the Plan Commission.
(a)
Within 30 days following receipt of the specific implementation
plan, the Plan Commission shall receive a report from the municipal
staff recommending approval, disapproval or approval with specified
modifications. The Plan Commission shall determine that the proposed
specific implementation plan is in substantial conformance with the
approved general implementation plan. Upon due consideration, the
Plan Commission shall recommend that the Village Board either:
[1]
Approve the specific implementation plan as being
in substantial conformance with the general implementation plan;
[2]
Approve the specific implementation plan as being
in substantial conformance with the general implementation plan with
specified modifications; or
[3]
Deny the specific implementation plan.
(b)
Following Plan Commission recommendation, the Village Board
shall receive the recommendation from the Plan Commission and the
report from the municipal staff. Upon due consideration, the Village
Board shall either:
[1]
Approve the specific implementation plan as being
in substantial conformance with the general implementation plan;
[2]
Approve the specific implementation plan as being
in substantial conformance with the general implementation plan with
specified modifications; or

Deny the specific implementation plan.
(5)
Specific implementation plan submittal requirements. The applicant
