§ 4-9. COMPLETING DEVELOPMENTS IN PHASES.

(A)

If a development is constructed in phases or stages in accordance with this Section, then, subject to subsection (C), the provisions of Section 4-4 and Section 4-8 shall apply to each phase as if it were the entire development.

(B)

As a prerequisite to taking advantage of the provisions of subsection (A), the developer shall submit plans that clearly show the various phases or stages of the proposed development and the requirements of this Ordinance that will be satisfied with respect to each phase or stage.

(C)

If a development that is to be built in phases or stages includes improvements that are designed to relate to, benefit, or be used by the entire development (such as a swimming pool or tennis courts in a residential development) then, as part of his application for development approval, the developer shall submit a proposed schedule for completion of such improvements. The schedule shall relate completion of such improvements to completion of one or more phases or stages of the entire development. Once a schedule has been approved and made part of the permit by the permit-issuing authority, no land may be used, no buildings may be occupied except in accordance with the schedule approved as part of the permit, provided that:

(1)

If the improvement is one required by this Ordinance, then the developer may utilize the provisions of Section 4-8(A); or

(2)

If the improvement is an amenity not required by this Ordinance or is provided in response to a condition imposed by the permit-issuing board, then the developer may utilize the provisions of Section 4-8(B).
