Improvements will be considered complete when they have been inspected and accepted by the Public Works Director, who shall certify in writing to the Building Official that the required off-site improvements have been constructed in accordance with the approved plans.
B. If the Public Works Director determines, in his sole discretion, that off-site improvements are applicable, but should not be constructed by the property owner, the Public Works Director may waive actual construction of said improvements and require, in their place, a deposit in cash by, or on behalf of, the applicant or property owner, in an amount estimated by the Public Works Director to cover the costs of the installation of such off-site improvements. All such sums deposited shall be used to defray the cost of any required off-site improvements, and when thus installed the portion of such deposit exceeding the cost of said installation shall be refunded, without interest, to the person making the deposit. Payment of the foregoing sums shall be required prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy by the Building Official, unless an earlier date is set forth as a condition of City approval in accordance with Section 14.1.1(A)(iv).
Where the construction alterations or additions consist solely of the installation or replacement of mechanical equipment, or the alterations or additions do not constitute a change in use and will not generate additional traffic, off-site improvements are not a requirement under this Chapter.
14.1.7 / Non-Conforming Lot Resulting From Dedication Of Right-Of-Way:
When dedication is required by this Chapter and the resultant lot or parcel of land whose lot area or street frontage becomes less than that required by the Zoning Code, said lot or parcel of land shall hereafter be deemed to be a legal lot or parcel of land under the Zoning Code from which the dedication was obtained.
14.1.8 / Compatibility With Subdivision Regulations:
The provisions of Title XIV are not intended to conflict with or waive any of the provisions of Title XII entitled “Subdivisions” of the City Code, Prescott, Arizona.
Violation of any provision of this Chapter shall be a civil violation and shall be subject to the provisions of Section 1-3-2 for each day that the violation continues.
