(A) Minor subdivisions. In the case of a subdivision resulting in three or less lots, situated in a neighborhood where conditions are well defined, the City Council may exempt the subdivider from complying with some of the requirements of these regulations. In the case of a request to subdivide a lot which is a part of a recorded plat, or, where the subdivision is, to permit the adding of a parcel of land to an abutting lot, or to create not more than three new lots, and the newly created property lines will not cause any resulting lot to be in violation of these regulations or Chapter 154, the division may be approved by the City Council, after submission of a survey by a registered land surveyor showing the original lot and the proposed subdivision. This can be done once within a five-year time period.
(B) Resubdivision. In the case of a request to divide a lot which is a part of a recorded plat where the division is to permit the adding of a parcel of land to an abutting lot to create two lots, and the newly created property line will not cause the other remaining portion of the lot to be in violation with this regulation or Chapter 154, the division may be approved by the City Council after submission of a survey by a registered land surveyor showing the original lot and the proposed subdivision.
(C) Registered land surveys. All registered land surveys shall be filed subject to the same procedure as required for the filing of a plat for platting purposes. The standards and requirements set forth in these regulations shall apply to all registered land surveys. Unless the City Council shall approve, a registered land survey shall not be used to divide a parcel of land into lots for the purpose of transfer of ownership or building development if any of the tracts do not have the required frontage on a dedicated public street.
