(B) Major subdivision procedure.
(1) Preliminary plan submission shall conform to Division 3, Preliminary Plan.
(2) Final plat submission shall conform to Division 4, Final Plat.
(3) Fees shall be paid as shown in § 1-16-46.
(4) Percolation testing and well drilling shall not be conducted on major subdivision applications until the lot layout is approved by the Planning Commission through the sketch plan or preliminary plan process.
(C) Whenever a previously recorded lot or lots are being resubdivided to create 6 or more additional lots, then a preliminary plan and final plat of resubdivision shall be filed in accordance with the requirements under this chapter. These plans and plats shall be approved by those agencies normally approving preliminary plans and final plats and shall be recorded by the division, together with a notation on the plat, which shall make reference to the plat book and page number of the original plat. Changes occurring as a result of highway, road, or street improvements which require additional right-of-way shall not require a resubdivision plat to be recorded, but may require approval and recording of a road dedication or road amendment plat. Resubdivision shall not be permitted in residential cluster development if the lot areas will be reduced below those lot areas shown on the originally recorded final plat.
(D) Subdivision applications shall be processed on a first come-first serve basis. In the event two or more property owners submit subdivision applications for development of portions of the same original parcel, and one or more of the applications proposes the 6th or greater lot off the original parcel, the determination of which application is a minor subdivision and which application is a major subdivision will be based on the date and time the initial complete application is submitted. In the event the plat reviewed as a minor subdivision becomes void, the voided plat may lose its minor subdivision status and the later submitted plat may then qualify as a minor subdivision.
