Plats failing to meet these requirements or other requirements of this title shall not be placed on the planning commission agenda.
C. Time Of Submission:
1. The final plat of the proposed subdivision shall be submitted to the planning commission and city council for final approval within one year of the date on which the preliminary plat was approved.
2. If not submitted for final approval within such time, the preliminary plat shall be considered as having been disapproved unless the planning commission agrees to an extension of time.
3. The final plat shall be filed in the office of the county recorder within one year after approval by the city council and planning commission, or, if not filed within such time, said approval shall be considered as having been voided.
D. Contents: The final plat shall be drawn on a scale of one inch equals one hundred feet (1" = 100') from an accurate survey and on sheets whose dimensions do not exceed twenty two inches by thirty two inches (22" x 32") between border lines on a standard twenty four by thirty six inch (24" x 36") sheet. However, in the instance of the platting of a small area, the scale of the drawing may be changed such that one inch (1") will equal less than one hundred feet (100') in order to allow a larger representation of the tract. On the first sheet of every plat there shall be a key map showing the location of the subdivision referenced to government survey section lines and major streets. If more than two (2) sheets are required for the plat, the key map shall show the number of the sheet for each area. A border of one inch (1") surrounding the sheet shall be left blank at the top, bottom, and right hand side, and a margin of three inches (3") at the left side for binding purposes. The final plat shall show:
1. The location and description of all permanent survey monuments in or near the tract, to at least one of which the subdivision shall be referenced.
2. The length of all required lines dimensioned in feet and decimals thereof, and the value of all required true bearings and angles dimensioned in degrees and minutes as hereafter specified.
3. The boundary lines of the land being subdivided fully dimensioned by lengths and bearings, and the location of boundary lines of adjoining lands with adjacent subdivisions identified by official names, and a legal description of the land being platted on all pages.
4. The lines of all proposed streets fully dimensioned by lengths and bearings or angles.
5. The lines of all proposed alleys. Where the length and/or direction of an alley are not readily discernible from data given for lot and block lines, the length and/or bearing shall be given.
6. The widths, and names where appropriate, of all proposed streets and alleys, and of all adjacent streets, alleys, and all proposed easements and all easements of record, which shall be properly located and identified.
7. The lines of all proposed lots fully dimensioned by lengths and bearings or angles, except that where a lot line meets a street line at right angles, the angle or bearing value may be omitted.
8. The outline of any property which is offered for dedication to public or private use fully dimensioned by lengths and bearings, with the area marked "public" or "private", as the case may be.
9. The blocks numbered consecutively throughout the entire subdivision, and the lots numbered consecutively throughout each block. If only a portion of a block shown on an approved preliminary plat is included in a final plat, the block and consecutive lot numbers assigned thereto shall not be continued for the remaining lots of such a block at such time as said remaining lots are final platted. The remainder of such a block shall bear a different block number and the lot numbers shall be consecutively numbered beginning with the number one.
10. The location of all building lines, setback lines, easements of record, and easements being dedicated for public services or utilities with dimensions to the nearest foot showing their location.
11. The radii, arcs, points of tangency, points of intersection, and central angles for all curvilinear streets and radii or cutbacks for all property returns.

E. Planning Commission Action:
1. The planning commission shall act upon the final plat within forty five (45) days after it has been submitted for final approval. This approval and the date thereof shall be shown on the plat over the signature of the planning commission chairman or secretary member. Unless stipulation for additional time is agreed to by the subdivider, and if no action is taken by the planning commission at the end of forty five (45) days after submission, the plat shall be deemed to have been approved. A certificate by the city clerk as to date of submission of plat for final approval, and failure of planning commission to act thereon within such time, shall be sufficient in lieu of written endorsement of approval.
2. If the final plat is disapproved, grounds for this refusal shall be stated in writing, a copy of which shall be transmitted with the tracing and prints to the applicant. The reasons for disapproval shall refer specifically to those parts of the Chandler comprehensive plan or ordinance with which the plat does not comply.
F. City Council Action: Before recording the final plat, it shall be submitted to the city council for approval and for acceptance of public ways and service and utility easements and land dedicated to public use. This approval of the plat shall be shown over the signature of the mayor and attested to by the city clerk or his deputy. The disapproval of any plat or plan by the city council shall be deemed a refusal of the proposed dedication shown thereon.
G. Recording Of Plat: After final approval of the plat and the affixing of all required signatures on the original tracing, the subdivider shall provide the planning commission with two (2) dark line prints thereof, and one contact reproducible cloth tracing, said tracing to be filed with the city clerk. One dark line print shall be retained in the permanent file of the planning commission and one shall be sent to the office of the city clerk. The applicant shall file the original tracing, one dark line print on cloth, and one contact reproducible cloth tracing or film with the county clerk, and the applicant shall pay all required filing fees.
