4. May cause an unjustifiable burden on existing traffic or transportation services, or
5. May require the future expenditure of public funds to correct problems caused by the subdivision and development;
E.

A. This Title is designed to set for he the process for obtaining preliminary and final subdivision approvals as well as inform the Subdivider and public of the requirements and conditions necessary to obtain approval of a Subdivision. Because each parcel of real property has unique site/situational characteristics (whether natural or man-made), there may be some aspects of subdivision development that cannot easily be articulated. For this reason, it is not possible to cover every possible contingency. Therefore, the Administrative Land Use Authority has the authority to impose reasonable conditions for the subdivision and development in addition to those expressly required, provided that:
1. The conditions are not arbitrary or capricious;
2. The conditions do not conflict with any local, state, federal law.
B. This Title shall apply to lots or parcels where public rights of way are dedicated, and public improvements and infrastructure are installed regardless of whether the land is subdivided.
