§ 153.1625 GENERALLY.
   (A)   Plat information shall be provided to the city in two forms: hard-copy subdivision plat sheets and digital plat data. The purpose of the digital plat data requirement is to coordinate with the city’s geographic information systems program and is to be used for information only. Unlike the hard-copy subdivision plat, which represents a legal document, the digital plat data may be subjected to adjustment by the city and has no legal significance. However, the digital plat data may be used to assist city officials in analyzing, understanding, interpreting and presenting the data.
   (B)   Digital data of subdivision plats will consist of graphical elements representing the hard-copy subdivision plat. The applicant shall provide digital data twice during the subdivision review process: initially, when the subdivision plat is submitted to the Code Enforcement Officer for plan review; and secondly, before the subdivision plat is approved by the Planning Commission. Additional digital submittals are required if changes occur between the second digital submittal and the recordation of the plat. The final digital submittal must reflect the graphical elements of the recorded plat.
   (C)   The initial digital data submittal shall include the subdivision boundary, as a minimum. The electronic medium shall bear a label similar to that of the final medium, as described in § 153.1630 of this chapter, with the exception of the plat number.
   (D)   (1)   The final digital data may be submitted with the final subdivision plat documents to the Planning Department.
      (2)   The final digital data must be submitted before the subdivision plat is considered complete and ready for Planning Commission consideration.
   (E)   (1)   The digital data submittals are subject to review and approval as a condition to the subdivision plat review and approval process. The X-Y coordinates indicated with the initial submittal are subject to approval as provided in Divisions 7, 8, 9 and 10 of this chapter.
      (2)   If an error is found to exist in the digital data that the city cannot correct, or if the digital data are otherwise unacceptable, the city will contact the submitting organization to have the digital data corrected.
   (F)   Both the digital and hard-copy files must contain all the elements consistent with accurately defining the geometry and global position of the proposed subdivision. In addition, the following two key data elements are also required on plat submittals:
      (1)   All new street names must have been approved by the United States Postal Service and shown on the hard-copy and digital plat submittals. The city will not accept unnamed street designations, such as Street “A”.
      (2)   The plat must contain a lot number for each proposed lot. The city will not accept invalid block numbers, such as Block “D”.
   (G)   Failure to provide approved street names and correct and unique block and lot numbers may result in significant delays as no plat will be approved until these key data are determined.
