A boundary line adjustment must also not create or result in any lot, tract, parcel, or site which contains insufficient area and dimensions to meet minimum requirements for width, lot size, and area for building as required by this section. The newly acquired land must be combined on the same deed for recording purposes as the remainder of the owner's property.

         (b)   The current legal descriptions of the lots; and
         (c)   The resulting legal descriptions of the altered lots.
      (2)   Procedure. Complete applications must be submitted to the Zoning Administrator or City Clerk. The Zoning Administrator shall review the application and make a determination and shall have final approval authority. The Zoning Administrator may bring the request to the planning commission if deemed necessary. If a boundary line adjustment is approved, the City Clerk will sign the certificate of survey, indicating its approval. The applicant shall be required to prepare and record such documents with the County Recorder as may be needed to complete the boundary line adjustment. Any approved boundary line adjustment not recorded within one year of approval, shall require a new application be submitted for review.
