Text

(a) ADVISORY─AREA. If the legislative
body, by resolution, rejects or amends the comprehensive plan, then it
shall return the comprehensive plan to the plan commission for its
consideration, with a written statement of the reasons for its rejection
or amendment.
(b) ADVISORY─AREA. The commission has sixty (60) days in
which to consider the rejection or amendment and to file its report with
the legislative body. However, the legislative body may grant the
commission an extension of time, of specified duration, in which to file
its report. If the commission approves the amendment, the
comprehensive plan stands, as amended by the legislative body, as of
the date of the filing of the commission's report with the legislative
body. If the commission disapproves the rejection or amendment, the
action of the legislative body on the original rejection or amendment
stands only if confirmed by another resolution of the legislative body.
(c) ADVISORY─AREA. If the commission does not file a report
with the legislative body within the time allotted under subsection (b),
the action of the legislative body in rejecting or amending the
comprehensive plan becomes final.
