BA comprehensive plan submitted by the developer, approved by the governing body, covering all aspects of land use within the development✓ Correct
CState-level approval in addition to local approval

Explanation

Planned development zoning requires the developer to submit a comprehensive plan showing all aspects of the development — land uses, building placement, open space, utilities, access — for review and approval by the local government. This provides more flexibility than standard zoning in exchange for comprehensive planning.
