When subsequent phases are being constructed, a similar surety bond shall be given for all public improvements for each phase also. When the final plan and drawing have been approved and all plans signed, an official record shall be made of this approval and all plans signed, an official record shall be made of this approval by the planning commission and the total PUD submission shall be recommended to the City of Beardstown for final approval. The first phase of the final plan shall be recorded by the owner/developer within thirty (30) days with the recorder of deeds of Cass County in the same way as a plat of subdivision is recorded, these portions must first be certified by the planning commission indicating that said portion of the development plan has been approved and that the developer may proceed with development.

    A.

    Change of an approved preliminary or final plan. If the owner/developer desires to make a major change to an approved preliminary or final plan, he shall submit a revised preliminary or final plan before he shall proceed with the changes.

Minor changes involving internal street patterns and adjustment of and use locations must be reviewed by the planning commission, but shall not be subject to a public hearing. The plan change shall be approved in the same manner as called for at stage 2. Following the preliminary approval, the changes shall be processed as called for in stage 3 of the PUD.

    B.

    Penalty. In the event the owner/developer shall violate any or all provisions of an approved PUD plan, he shall be subject to the penalties called for in this zoning ordinance.

    C.

    Minimum development standards. The uniqueness of each proposal for a planned unit development allows that the requirements for the public improvements serving the development and for the locations of the buildings in the development are subject to modification from the requirements of the prevailing subdivision ordinance of the City of Beardstown 7-1975. The planning commission may, therefore, within the limitations hereinafter specified, recommend waivers or modifications of these requirements if it finds that said requirements are not necessary for the best interests of the residents of the development and that such action is not inconsistent with the interest of the entire City of Beardstown. No such modifications shall be less than the standards indicated below. Where no indication or exception is given in the PUD zoning district classification, the requirements shall be as stated in the appropriate portion of the subdivision ordinance of the City of Beardstown except that for private ways the requirements for the ways shall be only as noted below:

    1.

When the PUD is located on one side of the street, one-half of the right-of-way shall be provided.
