311.1

Following approval of an application by the Zoning Commission, the applicant may file an application for a building permit with the proper authorities of the District of Columbia.

311.2

The Zoning Administrator shall not approve a permit application unless the plans conform in all respects to the plans approved by the Zoning Commission, as those plans may have been modified by any guidelines, conditions, or standards that the Zoning Commission may have applied. Nor shall the Zoning Administrator accept the establishment of an escrow account in satisfaction of any condition in the Zoning Commission's order approving the PUD unless the order expressly authorizes an escrow.

311.3

The Zoning Administrator shall not approve a permit application unless the applicant has recorded a covenant running with the land found technically sufficient by the Zoning Administrator and legally sufficient by the Office of Zoning Legal Division, in the land records of the District of Columbia by the owner or owners for the benefit of the District of Columbia, which covenant will bind the owner and all successors in title to construct on and use the property only in accordance with the adopted orders, or amendments thereof, of the Zoning Commission.

311.4

Following the recordation of the covenant, the PUD boundaries shall be designated on the Zoning Map.

311.5

The orders of the Zoning Commission issued in accordance with this chapter shall have all the force of this title, and violations shall be prosecuted in accordance with the provisions of Subtitle A § 305 of this title.

311.6

The Zoning Administrator shall not approve an application for a certificate of occupancy for a PUD if the order approving the PUD includes a condition requiring the provision of affordable housing unless the owner has executed monitoring and enforcement documents with the District of Columbia, which will bind the owner and all successors in title to abide by such terms as the District considers necessary to ensure that the affordable housing will be constructed, marketed, sold, re-sold, rented, and occupied, so as to be affordable to the target households during the specified control period and safeguarded regarding foreclosure.

311.7

A condition in an order approving or modifying a PUD that requires the provision of affordable housing shall automatically terminate if title to the mortgaged property is transferred following foreclosure by, or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure to, a mortgagee in the first position, or a mortgage in the first position is assigned to the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development provided the owner has executed monitoring and enforcement documents per the requirements of Subtitle X § 311.6.
