§ 152.23 PROCEDURE FOR APPROVAL OF FINAL PLAT.
   (A)   The final plat shall conform substantially to the preliminary plat as approved and if desired by the subdivider, it may constitute only that portion of the approved preliminary plat which he proposes to record and develop at the time; provided, however, that such portion conforms to all requirements of these regulations.
   (B)   Prior to the time of submission of the final plat of subdivision, final plans and specifications for public improvements shall be submitted in triplicate to the Plan Commission and shall include at least the following:
      (1)   Detailed drawings of a grading plan, street improvements plan, sanitary improvements plan, water system improvements plan, and storm water drainage.
      (2)   Plans and profiles drawn at a scale not to exceed one inch equals 100 feet horizontally and one inch to ten feet vertically indicating additional horizontal and vertical location of streets, sewers, appurtenances, and the existing grade.
   (C)   Upon receipt of these final plans, the Plan Commission shall refer same to the Town Engineer for his comments and corrections. The Town Engineer shall review these plans for compliance with the requirements of town and shall return them together with his recommendations to the Plan Commission. The Town Engineer may, at his discretion, confer with the engineer for the developer concerning correction to the final plans prior to his final approval. All final plans shall be submitted on 24-inch by 18-inch mylar and shall bear the signature of the Indiana Registered Professional Engineer and/or Registered Land Surveyor under whose direction they were prepared.

The developer may seek an extension of time from the Plan Commission. Failure to comply with these requirements will make the preliminary plat null and void.
   (E)   Within 30 days after application for approval of the final plat, the Plan Commission shall approve or disapprove it. If the Plan Commission approves, it shall affix its seal upon the plat together with the certifying signatures of its Chairman and Secretary. If it disapproves, it shall set forth its reasons in its own records and provide the applicant with a copy.
   (F)   (1)   After approval of the final plat by the Plan Commission and the fulfillment of the requirements of these regulations, one tracing of the final plat of the subdivision, drawn in ink on permanent plastic base, shall be submitted to the Town Council.
      (2)   Action must be taken by the Town Council within 45 days after the final plat has been submitted to the Town Council for approval of proposed dedications.
      (3)   Upon approval by the Town Council, the developer shall record the plat with the County Recorder within four months. If not recorded within this time, the approval shall be null and void. Immediately after recording, the original or a duly certified copy of the recorded plat shall be filed with the Hamilton Clerk-Treasurer.
