(A) Notwithstanding the provisions of §§ 151.01 through 151.10 set forth in this subchapter, where the owner wishes to convey a parcel of land, either with or without consideration, to a potential resident from the general public for the purpose of locating a residence, said owner may be authorized by the County Board of Commissioners, or the S.R.C., to convey said parcel as an exception from the plat provisions of this subchapter. Any exception thus authorized is required to be entered in the minutes of the County Board of Commissioners, or on a document executed by the S.R.C., and recorded with the deed of transfer, and the reasoning on which the exception was authorized shall be set forth.
(B) Any parcelization thus granted shall comply with the following provisions:
(1) Residents owning contiguous land containing 25 acres or more, and not separated by a public right-of-way, and/or a legal drain; and
(2) The number of parcels conveyed off the parent parcel shall follow the schedule below:
(a) Only one parcel from a lot of contiguous land containing at least 25 acres, but less than 40 acres;
(b) No more than two parcels from a lot of contiguous land containing at least 40 acres, but less than 80 acres; and
(c) No more than three parcels from a lot of contiguous land containing 80 acres or more.
(C) In a case where the new parcel is located other than on an existing public right-of-way, access to the parcel shall be provided by a private way. This private access shall not be considered by the County Board of Commissioners for a public thoroughfare, or for use to serve more than four residences until such time that the access shall be improved, in accordance with the applicable county improvement requirements for a county road.
(D) The new parcel, while not subject to the platting provisions of this subchapter, shall be subject to all non-plat provisions of this subchapter.
