(A) The administrative subdivision procedure shall be available to make minor adjustments to previously platted lots. It shall not be used in any manner that substitutes for or circumvents compliance with subdivision laws or regulations. An administrative subdivision may consist of dividing one lot into two or more parts, combining two or more lots (or parts of lots) into one parcel, or a combination thereof. Transactions or conveyances classified as administrative subdivision are hereby deemed not to constitute "subdivision development."

(1) The administrative subdivision does not contain more than three lots, except as provided for in division (B)(6) below;
(2) The administrative subdivision fronts on an existing city street, does not involve any new street, road or easement, or the extension of municipal facilities, or the creation of any public improvements;
(3) The administrative subdivision would not require the vacation or dedication of any easements;
(4) The administrative subdivision does not adversely affect the remainder of the parcel or adjoining property;
(5) The administrative subdivision is not in conflict with any provisions of the comprehensive plan, zoning regulations, or these regulations; and
(6) The administrative subdivision may contain more than three lots with the agreement of the Zoning Administrator, City Engineer, and City Administrator.
