(A) Filing deadline. Within one year after the date of the approval of the preliminary plat by the Plan Commission, the subdivider shall file for approval of final plat of a major subdivision for approval and recording as described herein below.
(1) Time extensions. Upon the request of the subdivider made within the first 270 days following the date of the approval of the preliminary plat as aforesaid, and for good cause shown, the Plan Commission may extend the time for submitting the final plat for approval for an additional 90 days, provided that only one such extension may be granted with respect to any given subdivision proposal.
(2) Revocation of preliminary plat approval. The subdivider's failure to submit a final plat to the Plan Commission for approval within the time or extension thereof set forth above shall operate as an automatic revocation of the approval of the preliminary plat, and the subsequent subdivision of the same property shall proceed only upon application to the village as set forth herein for original applications.
(B) Filing requirements for final plat of major subdivision. These requirements are cumulative to and augment the filing requirements for a preliminary plat of a major subdivision. At the time of filing of a final plat of major subdivision, the subdivider shall submit an engineering, drainage and grading plan containing detailed plans and specifications along with a natural resource opinion, theretofore approved by the Village Engineer, for the installation, construction and design of all public improvements, including but not limited to street pavements, curbs, gutters, sidewalks, and pathways, fire hydrants, water mains, storm sewers and storm water storage facilities, street lights and other public improvements detailing the existing centerline elevations of all streets and alleys in the proposed subdivision and the centerline elevations of proposed pavements. Elevations shall refer to U.S.G.S. datum. Profiles shall be drawn to a horizontal scale of not more than one inch equals 50 feet and vertical scale of not less than one inch equals five feet, which plans and profiles shall be prepared by an engineer licensed by the state in accord with all applicable codes and ordinances of the village as well as with the more detailed regulations contained below:
(1) All proper certificates and seals as required by law shall be shown on the subdivision plat including the signature and seal of the Illinois registered land surveyor who prepared the plat.
(2) No engineering, drainage, and grading plan shall be deemed approved unless the certificate of the Village Engineer is reflected thereon, certifying that the public improvements described thereon in the subdivider statement and the plan meet the minimum requirements of this chapter and all other applicable ordinances of the village, which certificate shall include the Village Engineer's estimate of the cost of such improvements, as well as the costs of engineering and inspection.
(C) Plan Commission recommendation. Provided the final plat meets the conditions, if any, set forth upon which the preliminary plat had been approved and is otherwise in accord with the preliminary plat and with all applicable regulations of this chapter, the Plan Commission shall make and send the Mayor and Board of Trustees a written report containing the Plan Commission's recommendation.
(D) Final approval of the final plat by Board of Trustees. Within 30 days of the date of the Plan Commission recommendation on the proposed final plat, the Mayor and Board of Trustees, at a public meeting, shall by resolution duly adopted approve, approve with modifications, or deny the final plat, and all related agreements and approvals related thereto. In the event the final plat is denied by the Mayor and Board of Trustees, the subdivision applicant shall be notified in writing of the reasons for such denial.
(E) Mayor and Board of Trustees consideration. Upon receipt of a recommendation from the Plan Commission, such final plat of major subdivision shall be acted upon by the Mayor and Board of Trustees. If said plat is approved by the Mayor and Board of Trustees, it is understood that such approval is conditioned upon the owner/subdivider depositing the financial guarantee and executing the subdivider's agreement in the form approved by the Village Attorney, unless noted to the contrary by the Mayor and Board of Trustees.
