All subdivision of land classified as a major subdivision shall be subject to the procedures described in this Article. Approval of a Final or Record Plat shall be subject to approval of a Preliminary Plat in accordance with regulations contained herein.
The developer shall submit a minimum of five (5) copies of the proposed Preliminary Plat or more, as required by the City, a completed application form and applicable application fees in the amount of two hundred twenty-five dollars ($225.00) plus one dollar ($1.00) for each lot, to the Republic Community Development Department at least twenty (20) working days prior to the meeting at which approval is requested. A completed Preliminary Plat checklist shall accompany all applications for major subdivisions.
Application and Preliminary Plat shall be reviewed for conformance with all applicable City adopted codes and regulations by the City Planner. If the City Planner or City Engineer reviews the application and plat and finds that it is incomplete or that the requirements of this Chapter, the comprehensive plan or other adopted plans have not been met, than the City Planner shall so notify the applicant in writing of any deficiencies. Once all deficiencies have been addressed and the City Planner and City Engineer have approved the plat, than a recommendation for approval or denial shall be transmitted to the Planning and Zoning Commission. After receiving comments and recommendations from the City Planner, the Planning and Zoning Commission shall review the Preliminary Plat for its conformance to the following review criteria and shall ensure the development, in the proposed location:
Will not endanger the public health or safety;
Will not injure the value of adjoining property or abutting property;
Will be in conformity with the Comprehensive Plan, Transportation Plan, Zoning Code, Water System Master Plan, Wastewater System Facility Plan or other plans officially adopted by the City Council; and
Will be in harmony with the area in which it is located.
The Planning and Zoning Commission may request modifications to the Preliminary Plat. The Commission shall then confer approval, conditional approval or disapproval of the Preliminary Plat within forty-five (45) days of filing and transmit all copies of the Preliminary Plat together with written reasons for its action to the City Council. The approval or the refusal to approve the Preliminary Plat by the City Council shall take place within thirty (30) days from and after the date in which the Planning and Zoning Commission has made a recommendation to approve or refuse to approve the Preliminary Plat. Once the City Council have approved or refused to approve the Preliminary Plat, the City Planner shall notify the owner or applicant of the decision in writing.
Preliminary Plat approval shall confer upon the developer, for a period of two (2) years from date of approval, the conditional right that the City Council will not change the general terms and conditions under which the approval was granted. After approval of the Preliminary Plat, the developer may proceed with the detailed construction plans for all required infrastructure of the area planned for inclusion on the final plat. The City Council, upon recommendation by the Planning and Zoning Commission, may extend this two (2) year period if the developer has applied in writing for such an extension and the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council determine a longer period should be granted due to unusual circumstances. If an extension is not granted, the Preliminary Plat approval is null and void. If no Final Plat of a subdivision for which preliminary approval has been given is approved within said two (2) year period, or such longer period as the City Council may allow, a resubmission and review by the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council shall be required. It shall not be the responsibility of the City to notify the applicant of an expired Preliminary Plat.
[Ord. No. 03-56 §1, 8-25-2003]
If phased construction is planned, the construction and final platting of the first phase shall be completed within two (2) years of the date of approval of the Preliminary Plat. Subsequent phases of the final plat may be submitted covering portions of the approved preliminary plat; provided, however, that all phases of the preliminary plat must be completed within four (4) years of the date of approval of the preliminary plat. If all phases of the preliminary plat have not been completed within four (4) years of the date of approval of the preliminary plat, then the preliminary plat shall be resubmitted to the City for extension and approval in accordance with the provisions of Section 410.150 hereof. If an extension and approval is not granted, the original preliminary plat approval shall be null and void.
The following information is required on all Preliminary Plats submitted for approval. The required information may be combined for presentation on one (1) or more drawings or maps.
