An application for a change of zoning and a concept plan (hereinafter
"concept plan") is approved by the Board of Aldermen.
b.
A site development plan in compliance with the conditions for

to the Planning and Zoning Commission and Board of Aldermen for approval
and recorded with the Franklin County Recorder of Deeds.
c.
The schedule of construction is complied with in accordance
with the approved rezoning ordinance and/or site development plan
approval.
2.
The Overlay District may be established by the Board of Aldermen
in the same manner that other zoning districts are established where
the Board of Aldermen determines that any particular tract or areas
should be developed accordingly, but because of the characteristics
of the underlying property, the property offers commercial, entertainment,
and educational opportunities to create a destination venue within
this area that will not be detrimental to surrounding properties.
3.
Procedure For Establishment Of The Overlay District. In order
to establish the Overlay District, the procedure shall be as follows:
a.
Application. The owner or owners of record or owners under contract
of a lot or tract of land or their authorized representatives shall
file an application on forms prescribed for this purpose by the Administrative
Officer. These forms are to be submitted to the Administrative Officer
and accompanied by the following:
(1)
Filing fee required to cover the costs of the City
in review of the Overlay District application, including any expert
fees (such as a traffic study), public notification fees, and any
other costs incurred by the City to review the application for conformity
with this Section;
(2)
Legal description of the property;
(3)
Outboundary plat of the property;
(4)
Concept plan identifying the general location of
streets, utilities, and other proposed infrastructure and the general
location of the proposed uses of the District;
(5)
Description/list of proposed uses; and
(6)
Any additional information reasonably required
by the Administrative Officer to determine compliance with the requirements
herein.
b.
When approving the change of zoning and concept plan, the Planning and Zoning Commission shall recommend and the Board of Aldermen shall establish within the governing ordinance the permitted uses for the proposed Overlay District, required infrastructure and rules related to the same and other conditions and requirements to meet the requirements of this Section. Upon request by the petitioner, the Board of Aldermen may within the ordinance that rezones the petitioner's property to the Overlay District approve for good cause shown alternative standards from the Subdivision Ordinance relative to streets, sidewalks, and/or drainage, and such approved, alternative standards shall be indicated on the plans. All other provisions and procedures for a change of zoning of Section 405.430 shall apply.
c.
Site Development Plans.
(1)
After passage of the rezoning ordinance and approval
of the concept plan by the Board of Aldermen, the developer shall
proceed with submitting a site development plan. A site development
plan can either be presented for the entire Overlay District, or the
developer can proceed to construct the District in phases and submit
multiple site development plans. No building permits or authorization
for improvement or development for any use requested under provisions
of this Section shall be issued prior to approval of such plans.
(2)
Site Development Plans Shall Be Submitted To The
Administrative Officer For Review. These plans shall contain the minimum
requirements established in the conditions of the ordinance governing
the Overlay District and, further, shall comply with applicable provisions
of the Subdivision Ordinance and other City ordinances. If the Director
finds the Plan(s) to be in substantial compliance with the zoning
ordinance, the approved concept plan, and this Section ("Applicable
Authority"), the Director shall forward to the Planning and Zoning
Commission for review and recommendation. For purposes of this Section,
"substantial compliance" shall mean a level of compliance with the
requirements of the Applicable Authority such that any identified
inconsistencies do not allow a lesser amount of performance on behalf
of the developer nor impose a greater burden or risk upon the City
or its citizens than that of the Applicable Authority. Specifically,
the Administrative Officer must determine that:
(a)
Development density and intensity have not materially
changed such that density of any use exceeds the permitted density
of that use, or the permitted height of the buildings;
(b)
Design has not materially changed, in that the
roadway patterns, particularly ingress/egress points, are in the same
general location as shown on the concept plan, landscaped open space
is in the same general location, is of the same or greater amount,
or the proposed changes do not have the effect of creating any non-compliance
or non-conformity with the strict application of the Zoning Code that
were not previously approved at public hearing, or of expanding the
scope of existing variances, alternative site development, options,
or other approvals pursuant to alternative development standards such
that they would differ to a greater degree from the strict application
of the Zoning Code; and
(c)
Uses have not changed to include uses not approved
by the Applicable Authority.
(3)
The Planning and Zoning Commission shall review
the site development plan for compliance with the Applicable Authority
and make a recommendation to the Board of Aldermen. The Board of Aldermen
may approve, approve with conditions, or deny the site development
plan in accordance with the Applicable Authority. Within sixty (60)
days of approval by the Board of Aldermen, the site development plan(s)
shall be recorded with the Franklin County Recorder of Deeds by the
developer at its cost and thereby authorize development as depicted
thereon. Failure to record such plan within the required time frame
shall result in the site development plan becoming null and void.
d.
Guarantee Of Improvements. Unless otherwise provided for in
the conditions of the ordinance governing the Overlay District, no
building permits or permits authorizing the occupancy or use of any
building, facility, commercial establishment, or structure may be
used or occupied until required related off-site improvements are
constructed or a performance bond, escrow, or other acceptable instrument
is posted covering their estimated cost as determined by the Administrative
Officer. This requirement shall not apply to foundation permits or
permits necessary for the installation of required related off-site
improvements. Required related off-site improvements shall include,
but not be limited to, streets, sidewalks, sanitary and storm sewers,
streetlights, and street trees. If the Overlay District is developed
in phases, the requirement shall also apply to all major improvements
necessary to the proper operation and function of the phase in question,
even though such improvements may be located outside of the phase
in question.
4.
To Amend The Rezoning Ordinance Or Concept Plan. Amendment to
the concept plan or conditions or terms of the rezoning ordinance
shall proceed through the same procedure for approval of the original
concept plan and rezoning ordinance.
5.
To Amend The Recorded Site Development Plan.
a.
The property owner or authorized representative shall submit
an amended site development plan to the Administrative Officer for
review. The Director shall then evaluate the request for consistency
in purpose and content with the nature of the approved concept plan,
rezoning ordinance, and original site development plan.
b.
If the Director determines that the proposed amendment to the
site development plan is major in nature and is not in conflict with
the approved concept plan and meets all conditions of the Overlay
District ordinance, said Plan shall be reviewed by the Planning and
Zoning Commission and forwarded to the Board of Aldermen for approval.
If approved, said amended plan shall be recorded with the Franklin
County Recorder of Deeds by the developer at its cost within sixty
(60) days of review and report by the Planning and Zoning Commission
and approval by the Board of Aldermen. Failure to record within the
prescribed timeline shall result in the approval of the amendment
being null and void.
c.
If the Administrative Officer determines that the proposed amendment
to the site development plan is minor in nature and is not in conflict
with the concept plan and meets all conditions of the "PID" District
ordinance, the Administrative Officer may administratively approve
such amendment. Said amended plan shall be retained on file by the
City and shall be recorded with the Franklin County Recorder of Deeds
by the developer at its cost within sixty (60) days of approval by
the Director. Failure to record within the prescribed timeline shall
result in the approval of the amendment being null and void.
d.
If the Administrative Officer determines that the proposed amendment
to the site development plan is not consistent in purpose and content
with the rezoning ordinance or with the concept plan approved by the
Board of Aldermen, the Administrative Officer shall so report to the
applicant and the Planning and Zoning Commission. The Planning and
Zoning Commission shall then review the amended site development plan
and make a recommendation to the Board of Aldermen for final determination.
6.
Appeals. The petitioner/developer may appeal a decision by the Administrative Officer. The petitioner shall have a fifteen-day period in which to file a written appeal and plan with the Planning and Zoning Commission. The written appeal, stating the reasons for the appeal, shall be submitted to the City. The Planning and Zoning Commission will make a final determination of the matter. No exceptions will be granted that are in violation of the particular ordinance governing the Overlay District. Such final determination by the Commission is subject to the appeal procedures of Article XI. To the fullest extent permitted by law, such review procedures shall be exhausted before any action may be filed in any court against the City or its officers, employees, boards, officials, or commissions.
7.
Failure To Commence Construction.
a.
Unless otherwise determined by the Board of Aldermen in the
rezoning ordinance, the Board of Aldermen shall consider the Overlay
District subject to revocation if substantial construction within
the Overlay District development fails to commence within one (1)
year of filing of the site development plan or construction of the
first phase or building site is not completed within five (5) years
from approval of the site development plan. As used in this Section,
"substantial construction" shall mean final grading for roadways necessary
for first approved plat or phase of construction and commencement
of installation of sanitary and storm sewers. Any extension herein
provided for shall be filed with the Administrative Officer prior
to the expiration date for which the extension is being requested.
The developer shall be notified, in writing, at least sixty (60) days
prior to any revocation hearing.
b.
The Board of Aldermen may grant an extension for any phase or
building site to commence construction for not more than one (1) additional
year. Any extension herein provided for shall be filed with the Administrative
Officer prior to the expiration date for which the extension is being
requested.
c.
In the event the site development plan is not submitted or substantial construction has not commenced within the prescribed time limits, the site development plan and concept plan shall terminate and the Planning and Zoning Commission shall within forty-five (45) days recommend initiation of a new public hearing to revert the property to its prior classification in accord with the proceedings specified in Article X of the Zoning Code. When the Overlay District has terminated by reason of provisions of this Subsection, no building permit shall be issued on that property until a public hearing has been held for the purpose of reinstating the Overlay District or reversion of said property to its prior zoning classification and action taken thereon by the Board of Aldermen.
8.
Unfinished Portions Of A Site Development Plan. Any ground in
an unfinished phase of a site development plan in the Overlay District
not completed within one (1) year from the date of site development
plan approval by the Board of Aldermen shall be graded and seeded
with a perennial grass seed. Said undeveloped ground shall be maintained
with appropriate mowing and trimming to meet City standards, until
it becomes an active construction site.
