The review process for a minor subdivision or land development plan shall include a final application and final approval, as specified in this section.
A. 
Final plan (application for final plan approval). The final plans submitted to the Zoning Officer shall include all applicable requirements specified in § 184-502 (Final subdivision plan requirements) or § 184-504 (Final land development plan requirements), as well as any further information deemed pertinent by the Zoning Officer or Borough Engineer.
[Amended 11-20-2013 by Ord. No. 607-2013]
B. 
Borough Council public meeting.
(1) 
Within 30 days following the filing of the application, the Borough Council shall hold a public meeting on said application.
(2) 
The Borough Council, within 15 days following the conclusion of the public meeting, shall, by official written communication to the applicant, either:
(a) 
Grant final approval of the final plan as submitted; or
(b) 
Grant final approval of the final plan subject to the specified conditions not included in the final plan as submitted; or
(c) 
Deny final approval.
(3) 
When an application is not approved in terms as filed, Borough Council's decision shall specify the defects found in the application and describe the requirements which have not been met and shall, in each case, cite to the provisions of the statute or ordinance relied upon. The applicant may, within 10 days after receiving a copy of the official written communication of the Borough Council, notify the Borough of his refusal to accept some or all of such conditions, in which event final approval of the final plan is deemed to be denied. Where the applicant does not object to the conditions within this ten-day period, the applicant shall be deemed to have accepted the conditions.
(4) 
Failure of Borough Council to so act within the required time periods set forth above and as required by Pennsylvania Municipalities Planning Code Section 508[1] shall be deemed to be a grant of final approval of the final plan as submitted unless the applicant has agreed, in writing, to an extension of time or change in the prescribed manner of presentation of communication of the decision.
