. Chairman Wilson and~mbers of the Commission 4t City of LaPorte . Page 14 ANALYSIS: Do not change this section, but perhaps make a clear reference to the Development Ordinance sections that apply. 24) Section 10-101 (4): Ci tizen comment indicates that this section, which again deals with construction schedules for multistage planned unit develop- ments should be approximate only and used as a general guideline, as opposed to being a concrete start and end date. The intent of the section is to provide only approximate starting dates and. completion dates, and to the extent that the section mandates definite starting and completion dates of construction, the wording should be changed to give general guideline dates. ANALYSIS: In the last sentence of Section 10-10l (4), the word "approximate" should be inserted before starting date and comple- tion date of the complete development plan. 25) Section lO-lOl 6(C): Citizen comment indicates that the term "sufficient amount of usuable open spacell in this section is somewhat vague. This is the section that outlines the basic requirements that a P. U. D. must meet in order to gain i ts conditional use permit. As with other sections in the P. u. D. area the term II sufficient II is used to allow the developer to have increased flexibility which is one of the basic advantages in developing a P. U. D. Note that in other areas of this section the quote is made that the P. U. D. should be in substantial complaince with the regulation of the uses that will be developed within the parameters of the P. U. D. The intent of ,the Plan was that sufficient in this usage should correlate with the open space requirements for the particular uses that will be developed within the planned unit development. This section is nonspecific in order to allow f1exabili ty to the developer in the design of a planned unit development. Any amendment to this section that wquld define II sufficient amount of open space" would remove flexibility from the planned unit development procedures. ANALYSIS: Leave this - section as is or add a qualification to this section that relates the term IIsufficient open space" to general compliance with the open space requirements outlined elsewhere in the ordinance. 26) Section 10-l02 (e): Citizen comment indiates that there is no need for the review of deed restrictions by the City Attorney to insure that they comply with F. H. A. Deed Restrictions. The review of these deed restrictions by the City Attorney is needed to insure compliance with both the F. H. A. Requirements and deed restriction require- ments as they may appear elsewhere in this document. As deed
