A. Within one year after approval of the tentative plan, the subdivider shall cause the subdivision or any part thereof to be surveyed and a plat prepared in conformance with the tentative plan as approved. The subdivider shall submit the original drawing, five prints, and any supplementary information to the City. If the subdivider wishes to proceed with the subdivision after the expiration of the one-year period following the approval of the tentative plan, he must submit a new tentative plan and make any revision necessary to meet changed conditions as determined by the Planning Commission.

B. Extension of time in which to submit the supportive documents and material without submission of a new tentative plan may be granted for an additional period of one year only, and then only upon application to and approval by the Planning Commission.

C. Information on Plat: In addition to that required for the tentative plan or otherwise specified by law, the following information shall be shown on the final plat:

(1) Reference points of existing surveys identified, related to the plat by distances and bearings, and referenced to a field book or map as follows:

(a) Stakes, monuments or other evidence found on the ground and used to determine the boundaries of the subdivision.

(b) Adjoining corners of adjoining subdivision.

(c) Other monuments found or established in making the survey of the subdivision or required to be installed by provisions of this Code.

(2) The exact location and width of streets and easements intercepting the boundary of the tract.

(3) Tract, block and lot boundary lines and street right-of-way and center lines, with dimensions, bearings or deflection angles, radii, arcs, points of curvature and tangent bearings. Normal high water lines for any creek or other body of water. Tract boundaries and street bearings shall be shown to the nearest .01 second with basis of bearings. Distances shall be shown to the nearest 0.01 feet. No ditto marks shall be used.

(4) The width of the portion of streets being dedicated and the width of existing right-of-way. For streets on curvature, curve data shall be based on the street center line. In addition to the center line dimensions, the radius and central angle shall be indicated.

(5) Easements denoted by fine dotted lines, clearly identified and, if already of record, their recorded reference. If an easement is not definitely located of record, a statement of the easement shall be given. The width of the easement, its length and bearing, and sufficient ties to locate the easement with respect to the subdivision shall be shown. If the easement is being dedicated by the map, it shall be properly referenced in the owner's certificates of dedication.

(6) Lot numbers beginning with the number "1" and numbered consecutively in each block.

(7) Block numbers beginning with the number "1" and continuing consecutively without omission or duplication throughout the subdivision. The numbers shall be solid, of sufficient size and thickness to stand out and so placed as not to obliterate any figure. Block numbers in an addition to a subdivision of the same name shall be a continuation of the numbering in the original subdivision.

(8) Identification of land to be dedicated for any purpose, public or private, to distinguish it from lots intended for sale.

(9) Building setback lines, if any, are to be made a part of the subdivision restrictions.

(d) Other certificates now or hereafter required by law.

D. Supplemental Information with Plat: The following data shall accompany the plat:

(1) A preliminary title report issued by a title insurance company in the name of the owner of the land, showing all parties whose consent is necessary and their interest in the premises.

(2) Sheets and drawings showing the following:

(a) Traverse data including the coordinates of the boundary of the subdivision and ties to section corners and donation land claim corners, and showing the error of closure, if any.

(b) The computation of distances, angles and courses shown on the plat.

(c) Ties to existing monuments, proposed monuments, adjacent subdivisions, street corners and state highway stationing.

(3) A copy of any deed restrictions applicable to the subdivision.

(4) A copy of any dedication requiring separate documents.

(5) A list of all taxes and assessments on the tract which have become a lien on the tract.

E. Technical Plat Review:

(1) Upon receipt by the City, the plat and other data shall be reviewed by the City Engineer who shall examine them to determine that the subdivision as shown is substantially the same as it appeared on the approved tentative plan and that there has been compliance with provisions of the law and of this Code.

(2) The City Engineer may make such checks in the field as are desirable to verify that the map is sufficiently correct on the ground and his representatives may enter the property for this purpose.

(3) If the City Engineer determines that full conformity has not been made, he shall advise the subdivider of the changes or additions that must be made and shall afford the subdivider an opportunity to make the changes or additions.
