The applicant shall provide the following information
to the Administrator not less than 21 days prior to the next regularly
scheduled meeting of the Planning Commission:
A. Twenty prefolded copies of the plan (preliminary or
final).
B. Twenty prefolded copies of construction plans (if
applicable).
C. A completed subdivision or land development application
with original signatures and 19 copies of same.
D. A completed planning module, if applicable, as required
by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection and five

The Foster Township Board of Supervisors shall
not approve any subdivision or land development plans or application
until a report, containing the comments and recommendation of the
Luzerne County Board of Supervisors, is received or until the expiration
of 30 days from the date said plans and application were forwarded
to the Luzerne County Board of Supervisors. The applicant shall pay
all review fees required by the Luzerne County Board of Supervisors.
The Board of Supervisors, at its discretion,
may hold a public hearing prior to rendering a decision on any plan
(preliminary or final).
Prior to approving the final plan of a major
subdivision or a major land development in which the approval was
conditioned upon specific improvements, the Board of Supervisors shall
require the following of the applicant:
A. The installation of all required improvements in accordance
with the design standards and specifications of this chapter and all
applicable terms and conditions in granting approval; or
B. Provision of a form of financial security, acceptable
by the Board of Supervisors, which assures and guarantees the subsequent
installation of all required improvements in accordance with the design
standards and specifications of this chapter and all applicable terms
and conditions in granting approval.
Prior to granting final approval of a major
subdivision plan, the Board of Supervisors may permit the plan to
be divided into two or more sections, or phases, and may impose such
conditions upon the filing of the sections as it may deem necessary
to assure the orderly development of the plan. The Board of Supervisors
may require that the financial security be in such amount as is commensurate
with the section or sections of the plan to be filed and may defer
the remaining required financial security principal amount until the
remaining sections of the plan are offered for filing. The developer
may also file, in writing, irrevocable offers to dedicate streets
and public improvements in the sections offered to be filed and defer
filing offers of dedication for the remaining sections until such
sections, subject to any conditions imposed by the Board of Supervisors,
shall be granted concurrently with final approval of the plan.
