Prior to or together with either the first-stage 1 or the first consolidated application submitted pursuant to this chapter, the applicant shall submit for review and approval by the Zoning Commission a master plan for the entire USN zone.
A master plan review will examine, for the entire USN zone, the dimensions and locations of transportation ways and the general locations of open spaces and building sites, in accordance with the review criteria of Subtitle K § 321.
A master plan shall be determined by the Zoning Commission to be not inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan, to generally further the purposes of the USN zone and to be acceptable in all the review criteria of Subtitle § K 321.
An approved master plan may be modified through application to the Zoning Commission, and the application for modification shall be subject to the same approval criteria as set forth in Subtitle K § 316.3.
An applicant must return to the Zoning Commission for review and approval of stage 1 and stage 2 applications or a consolidated application prior to applying for a building permit or beginning construction of any portion of the approved master plan application.
