It <br />is verification that the subdivided land has been developed sub- <br />stantially in accordance with the approved preliminary plat (or <br />that a bond has been posted which will secure the development as <br />specified in the final plat). The final plat must be approved by <br />the Board of County Commissioners and recorded by the Clerk of the <br />Circuit Court before the developer may sell any lot or parcel. <br />2) Development Phases. The applicant may schedule <br />proposed development phases within any proposed subdivision. The <br />scheduled development phases shall have been specified on the <br />approved preliminary plat and shall be of such a size and design <br />and be scheduled so that all portions completed at any time can <br />exist independently as a subdivision in complete conformity with <br />the requirements of this ordinance. Any change in the schedule of <br />phases must receive prior approval by the Planning and Zoning <br />Commission. If phased, the applicant shall have the option of <br />requesting either final plat approval or the issuance of a <br />certificate of completion on one or more of the development phases <br />in conformity with all the procedures and requirements of this <br />ordinance. The applicant may not apply for final plat approval on <br />any portion of the approved preliminary plat which he does not <br />propose to record and develop within the following twelve (12) <br />months. Failure to make application for final plat approval of a <br />development phase or for the issuance of a certificate of comple- <br />tion for a development phase on an approved preliminary plat <br />within a period of eighteen (18) months from the date of approval <br />of the preliminary plat shall result in automatic revocation of <br />said preliminary plat unless the applicant applies for an exten- <br />sion from the Board prior to the lapse. The request for extension <br />must be made in writing to the Board and the applicant must demon- <br />strate good cause for the extension. only one extension may be <br />granted and shall not be for a period exceeding eighteen (18) <br />months. <br />-32- <br />
