It is recommended, before submitting a preliminary plat for official filing, that the subdivider consult with the village or meet with the Planning and Zoning commission for advice and assistance. This step requires an application to be completed and a fee of two hundred fifty dollars ($250.00) to be paid. The filing of a plat with the village is not necessary, but a preliminary sketch may be included. In the event an application for the public hearing is subsequently filed, the two hundred fifty dollar ($250.00) fee will be credited toward the public hearing fee.
