§ 30-15.2. Enforcement of landscaping provisions.

The provisions of this Article shall not apply to single-family and two-unit dwellings.

(a)

No building permit or certificate of occupancy will be issued for any lot or use subject to the requirements of this Article unless all the requirements of this Article have been fulfilled. Failure to implement the landscape plan, or to maintain the lot or use in substantial conformance with the landscape plan, is cause for revocation of the certificate of occupancy and/or the application of fines and penalties, as established in this Ordinance. In addition, all landscape is subject to periodic inspection.

(b)

If weather prohibits the installation of landscape at the time an occupancy permit is applied for, the applicant must provide the Village with a deposit in the amount required to complete landscape installation as determined by the Zoning Administrator in order to receive a certificate of occupancy, the deposit to be returned upon completion of required landscape.

(c)

Any relief from these landscaping requirements is granted by the Appearance Review Commission as justified by its review findings.
