(a) In general. The planning commission may not approve an application for approval of a master plan or an application for an amendment to a master plan resulting in an increase in density or intensity of use unless the master plan meets the requirements of sections 4-8 through 4-12 this chapter. Concurrent with master plan approval or amendment approval, the planning commission shall approve a phasing plan indicating the density and rate of development in accordance with the availability of adequate public facilities. Phasing of development to address school adequacy must comply with section 4-12.
(b) Approval period. Certificates of adequate public facilities (CAPF) issued pursuant to sections 4-8 through 4-14 are valid for a maximum of twenty-four (24) months from the date of master plan approval. If, within twenty-four (24) months of master plan approval, the developer obtains approval for the preliminary or final subdivision plat, or site plan associated with the master plan, then the approval period is as specified in section 4-6(c). If the developer does not obtain approval for the preliminary or final subdivision plat, or site plan associated with the master plan within twenty-four (24) months of approval of the master plan or amendment thereto, then the certificates of adequate public facilities are void.
(c) Voiding or amendment of master plan. If the master plan is voided or amended such that the density or intensity of use is increased, then the unrecorded or undeveloped portion of the development shall meet the requirements of sections 4-8 through 4-14 prior to again obtaining master plan approval.
(d) Retesting. A development project that receives CAPF approval at the time of master plan approval will not be subject to adequate public facilities testing at the preliminary or final subdivision plat or site plan approval stage provided that the CAPF approval remains valid and that the preliminary or final subdivision plat or site plan does not propose an increase in the density or intensity of use.
