Sec. 112-9. Site plan review for zero lot line or townhouse developments.

(a) Development plan. Before a building permit can be issued for a zero lot line or a townhouse development as provided for in the Zoning Ordinance (Chapter 130), a development plan must be submitted to the planning commission for approval. A proposed development of three or more lots shall be processed as a subdivision.

(1) Required exhibits. In addition to the submittal requirements for a subdivision, the developer shall submit the following with the preliminary plat for review by the planning commission:

a. Typical plot plans for each dwelling unit type at a scale of one inch equals 30 feet or larger showing the location, with setbacks noted, of existing and proposed buildings, patios, driveways, parking areas, sidewalks, accessory buildings and structures, utility lines, and easements.

b. Typical building elevations for each dwelling unit type.

c. The preliminary plat shall indicate the zero lot lines for zero lot line developments.

d. Preliminary ownership and maintenance plans.

(2) The five-foot wall maintenance/improvement/drainage easement and the zero lot lines shall be indicated on the final plat of a zero lot line development when it is submitted to the planning commission for review and approval.

(3) An applicant for a development of one or two lots shall submit a survey or a replat by a registered land surveyor, and all exhibits as indicated above. Easements and street rights-of-way conforming to the right-of-way requirements of the master street plan shall be dedicated with certifications required for recording this plat with the circuit clerk of the county.

(4) The final protective covenants and property owners' association agreement shall be submitted to the planning commission with the final plat for developments of three or more lots, and with the original submittal for developments of two lots.

(b) Enforcement.

(1) Review by planning and community development director or his/her designated representative. After final approval by the planning commission, but before a building permit can be issued, an individual plot plan shall be submitted to the planning and community development director or his/her designated representative for each building in the case of townhouse developments, or for each dwelling unit in the case of zero lot line developments. The planning and community development director or his/her designated representative shall be responsible for reviewing the plot plans to determine if all the provisions of this article, as well as the Zoning Ordinance, are being met.

(2) Minor changes. The planning and community development director or his/her designated representative may authorize minor changes in an approved development plan. If a developer wishes to make minor changes to an approved development, the changes shall be submitted to the planning and community development director or his/her designated representative in a form comparing the approved development with the desired changes. Substantial changes from an approved plan will be subject to the same procedure as new submissions.
