§ 5.13.3. General development plan.

A.

All applications for subdivision, conservation development and planned development to be completed in more than one phase require a general development plan review by the planning commission and the county commissioners. These processes are described in section 12.2.

B.

A single-phase project may be reviewed as a general development plan at the applicant's choice.

C.

While approval of a general development plan does not create a vested right or guarantee preliminary plat approval, the applicant may wish to use this process to get planning com mission and county commissioner review of the development concept without having to prepare the detailed engineering studies and reports required for preliminary plat review. The applicant may choose to combine general development plan review with preliminary plat review for the first phase of a multiple-phase project.

D.

Each general development plan approval must include a time limit for completion of the project not to exceed three years. General development plan approvals are conditioned on the applicant successfully addressing the following in the preliminary plat application:

1.

Compatibility with existing and allowed land uses in the area;

2.

Compliance with all standards and other requirements of this code and with all other federal, state and county laws and regulations; and

3.

Compliance with section 8 (standards for all development) of this Code.
