A Master Plan shall be determined by the Commission to be not inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan, to generally further the purposes of the USN District and to be acceptable in all the review criteria of § 2923.
An approved Master Plan may be modified through application to the Commission, and the application for modification shall be subject to the same approval criteria as set forth in § 2918.3.
