(A) Purpose. Because each new subdivision accepted by the city becomes a permanent unit in the basic physical structure of the future community and to which the future community will of necessity be forced to adhere, and further because piecemeal planning of subdivisions will bring a disastrous, disconnected patchwork of pattern and poor circulation of traffic unless its design and arrangement is correlated to a proposed master plan study aiming at a unified scheme of community interests; all subdivisions of land lying within the incorporated limits of the city shall in all respects fully comply with the regulations set forth in this chapter.
(B) Jurisdiction. It is the purpose of this chapter to make certain regulations and requirements for the platting of land within the city pursuant to the authority contained in M.S. Chapters 412, 429, 471, 505 and 508, as they may be amended from time to time, which regulations the City Council deems necessary for the health, safety, general welfare, convenience and good order of this community.
