For purposes of this section, an "infill project" is a project in which a parcel is developed or redeveloped, where abutting or nearby parcels are already developed, and where the project area is relatively small compared to the developed abutting or nearby parcels.
B. 
Each district shall have at least two different general use classifications (i.e., residential, commercial, industrial, institutional, parks, or recreational facilities open to the public) provided that this requirement may be waived by the Town Board if a different use is already present within 1/4 mile of the proposed district and accomplishes the mixture of uses within the neighborhood sought to be achieved by this section to an equivalent degree.
C. 
The mixture of uses shall be based upon the uses recommended in the land use element of the Comprehensive Plan. The required mixture of uses may be obtained with different uses in different buildings or a mixture of uses within the same building.
Each NCD shall include the following:
A. 
Greenspace. Greenspace is the total undeveloped, open area used for landscaping, recreation and landscaping. The minimum area devoted to greenspace is as follows:
(1) 
For areas shown in the land use element of the Comprehensive Plan as Neighborhood Center, the area devoted to greenspace shall be at least 15% but not more than 25% of the gross acreage of the site.
(2) 
For areas having a land use designation not addressed in Subsection A(1), the recommendations of the applicable provisions of the Comprehensive Plan shall guide the minimum area devoted to greenspace.
(3) 
The Town Board at the request of the applicant may reduce the minimum area devoted to greenspace. In acting on a request, the Board shall consider the relationship of the site to adjoining or nearby properties containing public greenspace, such as parks or natural areas; the known future uses of the adjoining properties; and whether a reduction would better achieve the goals of the Comprehensive Plan.
B. 
Amenities. Amenities are greenspaces with landscaping, pathways, benches, gazebos or other similar aesthetic enhancements. The minimum area devoted to amenities is as follows:
(1) 
For areas shown in the land use element of the Comprehensive Plan as Neighborhood Center, the area devoted to amenities shall be at least 15% of the gross acreage of the site. If at least 15% is not provided, a fee in lieu of dedication shall be paid in an amount equal to the percentage of the value of the project, if approved by the Town of Ledgeview. [Example: If a project valuing $500,000 is submitted with only 10% amenities, then 5% of the value of the project is due as a fee in lieu of dedication ($25,000).]
(2) 
Amenities preserving existing natural areas and future environmental areas in the Comprehensive Plan arc encouraged.
(3) 
For areas having a land use designation not addressed in Subsection B(1), the recommendations of the applicable provisions of the Comprehensive Plan shall be guidance on the minimum area devoted to amenities.
(4) 
The Town Board at the request of the applicant may reduce the minimum area devoted to amenities. In acting on a request, the Board shall consider these factors: the relationship of the site to adjoining or nearby properties containing amenities; the proportion of residential uses to nonresidential uses proposed; the known future uses of the adjoining properties; and whether or not a reduction would better achieve the neighborhood model goals of the Comprehensive Plan.
C. 
Additional requirements for amenities. Amenities shall also be subject to the following:
(1) 
At least 90% of the residential units in the NCD shall be within a one-quarter-mile walk of an amenity.
(2)

(3) 
The amenity shall be suitable for the specific population to be served.
(4) 
The design of any recreational facilities shall meet the minimum design requirements from recognized sources of engineering and recreational standards.
(5) 
In nonresidential areas of the development, amenities shall be located so that they are easily accessible to patrons and employees of the development.
D. 
Greenspace within parks and recreational amenities. Any portion of an amenity, including a trail, which is covered in grass or other vegetation, may be counted as both greenspace and an amenity.
E. 
Conservation areas within greenspace. A conservation area is any area that is preserved in its natural state. Conservation areas that maintain required environmental features such as wetlands shall not be included as greenspace area.

Such report and recommendation of the committee shall be made to the Town Board no later than four months from the date of the filing of the application with the Zoning Administrator or designee and receipt of any required supportive information.
