The Planning and Zoning Board approves this planned unit development final plan upon the condition that the development agreement, final utility plans, and final P.U.D., plans for the planned unit development be negotiated between the developer and City staff and executed by the developer prior to the second monthly meeting (March 24, 1997) of the Planning and Zoning Board following the meeting at which this planned unit development final plan was conditionally approved; or, if not so executed, that the developer, at said subsequent monthly meeting, apply to the Board for an extension of time. The Board shall not grant any such extension of time unless it shall first find that there exists with respect to said planned unit development final plan certain specific unique and extraordinary circumstances which require the granting of the extension in order to prevent exceptional and unique hardship upon the owner or developer of such property and provided that such extension can be granted without substantial detriment to the public good. If the staff and the developer disagree over the provisions to be included in the development agreement, the developer may present such dispute to the Board for resolution if such presentation is made at the next succeeding or second succeeding monthly meeting of the Board. The Board may table any such decision, until both the staff and the developer have had reasonable time to present sufficient information to the Board to enable it to make its decision. (If the Board elects to table the decision, it shall also extend the term of this condition until the date such decision is made). If this condition is not met within the time established herein (or as extended, as applicable), then the final approval of this planned unit development shall become null and void and of no effect. The date of final approval for this planned unit development shall be deemed to be the date that the condition is met, for purposes of determining the vesting of rights. For purposes of calculating the running of time for the filing of an appeal pursuant to Chapter 2, Article II, Division 3, of the City Code, the "final decision" of the Board shall be deemed to have been made at the time of this conditional approval; however, in the event that the dispute is presented to the Board for resolution regarding provisions to be included in the development agreement, the running of time for the filing of an appeal of such "final decision" shall be counted from the date of the Board's decision resolving such dispute.

On May 23, 1994, the Planning and Zoning Board approved The Detail Center PUD, Preliminary and Final, #22-94 by a vote of 5-0 on the Consent Agenda for the property. 2. Land Use: This is a request to amend The Detail Center PUD, Preliminary and Final to allow a PUD for an automobile inventory storage lot of 53 spaces for Dellenbach Chevrolet. Since the property will become a functional part of the existing Dellenbach Chevrolet, it could also be considered an expansion of an existing approved PUD. In both instances, the proposed automobile inventory storage lot is required to be processed as a PUD. There are no point charts in the LDGS which technically apply to a inventory storage (parking) lot. Therefore, the project has only been reviewed against the All -Development Criteria of the LDGS. This PUD satisfies all applicable All -Development Criteria of the LDGS. 3. Design: Landscaping: The north, south, and west property lines will have a 6 foot high chain link fence.
