§ 101-9. Actions on site plan.  


Latest version.
  • A. 
    The Planning Board shall decide a site plan application within 62 days after the close of the public hearing or, if no hearing is required, within 62 days after the day the application first comes before the Board. The time within which the Planning Board must render its decision may be extended by consent of the applicant and the Planning Board.
    B. 
    Action by resolution. The Planning Board shall act by resolution to approve, to approve with modifications or conditions, or to deny the site plan application. An approval or approval with modifications or conditions shall include authorization to the Planning Board Chairman to stamp and sign the site plan upon the applicant's modification of the site plan or fulfillment of the conditions.
    C. 
    If the Planning Board's resolution includes a requirement that the site plan be modified before approval, the completion of the modifications shall be a condition of approval. If site plan application is denied, the Planning Board's resolution shall state the reasons for denial.
    D. 
    Submission requirements for stamping. Within 62 days of receiving an approval, with or without modifications or conditions, the applicant shall complete the modifications and satisfy the conditions and submit four prints of the site plan to the Planning Board for stamping and signature by the Chairperson. No changes shall be made to the site plan other than what had been authorized by the Planning Board. A failure to make modifications or satisfy conditions within 62 days of an approval invalidates the approval without the need for further action by the Planning Board.
    (1) 
    Effect of stamping by Planning Board. Upon stamping and signature by the Chairman, the Planning Board shall forward a copy of the approved site plan to the Code Enforcement Officer/Building Inspector and the applicant. The Code Enforcement Officer/Building Inspector may then issue a building permit or certificate of occupancy if the project conforms to all other applicable requirements.
