(3) In addition to the initial application fee established pursuant to subsection 31-1.15(a)(1) of this section, the village manager may impose a supplemental application fee with respect to any plat filed pursuant to this chapter. The supplemental application fee shall be imposed to reimburse the village fully for its actual costs incurred in reviewing or processing any plat in addition to the amount of the initial application fee. As a condition of imposing a supplemental application fee, the village shall maintain an accurate record of the actual costs (as described in subsection 31-1.15(a)(2) hereof) of processing and reviewing such application pursuant to the provisions of this chapter 31;
(4) The owner of the property which is the subject of any plat and, if different, the developer, shall be jointly and severally liable for the payment of all fees required to be paid pursuant to this section. By filing a plat pursuant to the provisions of this chapter 31, the owner shall be deemed to have agreed to pay such fees and to consent to the filing and foreclosure of a lien on the subject property to insure collection of any such fees, plus the costs of collection, which have not been paid within 30 days following the mailing of a written demand for such payment to the owner or developer at the address shown on the application. Any lien filed pursuant to this section may be foreclosed in the manner provided by statute for mortgages or mechanics' liens;
(5) No plat shall be considered complete unless and until all fees pursuant to this section have been paid. Every approval granted and every permit issued pursuant to any provision of this chapter 31 or any other provision of the Glencoe village code with respect to the property which is the subject of the plat, whether or not expressly so conditioned, shall be deemed to be conditioned upon payment of fees as required by this section; and
(6) The failure to fully pay any fee pursuant to this section when due shall be grounds for refusing to review or process a plat and for disapproving any such plat or denying or revoking any permit or approval sought or issued with respect to the property which is the subject of the plat.
(b) Names and addresses of all owners of record of the property, of all beneficial owners of any land trust or other real parties in interest, of all consultants who will be involved in the subdivision review process, and of the applicant;
(c) Notices in the form approved by the plat officer as part of the pre-application to all persons who were identified as part of the pre-application review;
(d) The permanent real estate index numbers of the property to be subdivided;
