Lake County Zoning Code Art. 25

• 25.21 Improvement plan required: Applicants for minor and major use permits pursuant to Sections 25.4 and 25.5 shall submit, as part of the use permit application, an improvement plan.

• 25.31 Purpose: It is the policy of Lake County that in all applicable instances a reimbursement agreement be entered into when previous permittees pursuant to Sections 25.4 or 25.5 cause improvements to be installed in excess of those needed to serve the applicant’s properties in order to insure the equitable sharing of costs by those who enjoy the benefits of the improvements. To accomplish this goal, this Section establishes a method by which permit holders, who are required to carry out an improvement plan pursuant to Section 25.20 of this Article, are reimbursed by subsequent permit holders, who but for the already implemented improvement plan would have incurred additional expense in meeting the requirements of this Article.

• 25.32 Reimbursement: When in the judgment of the Review Authority an applicant would have incurred additional expense in meeting the requirements of this Article, except that as a condition of a previous permit improvements have been implemented, the Review Authority shall impose as a condition of permit approval a requirement that the permit applicant reimburse the permit holder(s) who originally implemented the improvements in an amount which bears a reasonable relationship to the project’s respective share of the improvements, including excess costs for geological and engineering services.
