If, after submission of the sketch plan of the proposed subdivision, resubdivision or division of property, the Planning Commission determines that one or more lots, as defined by the Zoning Ordinance, intended to be created by such proposed subdivision, resubdivision or division, do not meet the minimum requirements of the Zoning Ordinance, the Planning Commission shall notify the developer of such fact and thereafter shall take no further action until the developer has secured a variance from the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance from the Board of Building and Zoning Appeals.
If the developer secures a variance from the Board of Building and Zoning Appeals, the Planning Commission may thereupon proceed to consider the application for the subdivision, resubdivision or division of the land in accordance with the procedure hereinafter set forth.
(Ord. 1964-13. Passed 4-27-64.)
If the Planning Commission determines the proposed subdivision of land:
(a) Adjoins an existing public street and does not involve the opening, widening, extension or improvement of any street or the installation of any public utility; and
(b) Creates not more than five lots; and
(c) That the original tract or all adjoining tracts of same ownership have been completely subdivided or would not be adversely affected by the proposed subdivision; and
(d) Complies with the Zoning Ordinance, and other sections of the Code;
then it shall be classified as a minor subdivision. (Ord. 1961-3. Passed 7-31-61.)
If a proposed subdivision, classified as minor, complies with the provisions of these Subdivision Regulations, and the sketch plan is satisfactory, it shall be approved, and a notation to that effect shall be made thereon by the secretary of the Planning Commission.
The Commission shall determine if a metes and bounds description or a final plat shall be required for recording.
If a final plat shall be required, it shall be submitted to the secretary, reviewed, acted upon and recorded in the same procedure as a major subdivision.
(Ord. 1961-3. Passed 7-31-61.)
After approval of the sketch plan, the developer shall submit a deed by metes and bounds or other adequate description, to the secretary of the Planning Commission for review. If found to conform to the sketch plan, the secretary shall so certify on the deed which shall be filed with the County Recorder within 180 days after the return of the approved sketch plan.
(Ord. 1961-3. Passed 7-31-61.)
(a) Application. If the proposed subdivision is not classified as a minor subdivision, a notation to that effect shall be made on the sketch which shall be returned to the developer; and he shall prepare and submit at least seven working days prior to a regular meeting of the Planning Commission, three copies of a preliminary plan of the subdivision, supplementary maps and data and written application for approval.
(b) Other Public Agencies. When the proposed subdivision is located in an area not served by public water supply or sanitary system, the Commission shall transmit one copy of the maps and data accompanying the application to the Board of Health or other agency having jurisdiction, for determination whether methods for disposal of sewage are adequate and will not create a nuisance or pollution of the water supply. When the proposed subdivision is located in adjoining unincorporated area within the three-mile jurisdiction, one copy of the maps and data accompanying the application shall be submitted to the zoning commission of that township or the regional or county planning commission.
(c) Planning Commission Action. The Commission shall, within thirty days after the meeting at which such proposal was first presented, or within such further time as the applicant may agree to, act upon the preliminary plan. If the Commission acts favorably, the secretary shall affix his signature to two copies of the plan with a notation that it has received preliminary approval and return one copy to the developer and the other copy shall be retained. If the Commission acts unfavorably, they shall state in writing the conditions that must be complied with before approval is given.
(d) Subdivision Shall Be in the Public Interest. The preliminary plan of a subdivision shall not be approved unless:
(1) All the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance, these Subdivision Regulations and other codes of the City are complied with; and
(2) There is a need for additional subdivision of land; and
(3) The land is suitable for the various purposes intended; and
(4) The subdivision can be adequately and economically served with public facilities and services suitable in the circumstances; and
(5) All land intended for building sites can be used safely and without endangering the health of the residents by peril from floods, erosion, continuously high water table or other menace.
(e) Effect of Approval of Preliminary Plan. Preliminary approval shall confer upon the developer the following rights for a two-year period from the date of approval:
(1) That the general layout, the arrangement of streets, lots and other planned features are approved and the plan is to serve as a guide for the preparation of the subsequent final plat of the subdivision.
(2) That the general terms and conditions under which the preliminary approval was granted will not be changed.
(3) That such developer may submit, on or before the expiration date, the whole or part or parts of such subdivision for final approval and recording. (Ord. 1961-3. Passed 7-31-61.)
The final plat of the subdivision shall be a comprehensive plan of the development. It shall incorporate all modifications required by the Planning Commission and otherwise conform to the preliminary plan as approved. The developer may submit only that portion of an approved preliminary plan which he proposed to develop and record at the time; provided, however, that such portion conforms to all provisions of these Subdivision Regulations.
(Ord. 1961-3. Passed 7-31-61.)
A final plat of the proposed subdivision, showing the proposed layout of the streets and lots, made with material approved by the County Recorder at a scale of not less than one inch to 100 feet and properly dimensioned, shall be submitted to the Planning Commission for their approval. Such plat shall conform to the following requirements of the Commission:
(a) The subdivision shall be surveyed by a Registered Surveyor of the State, and the boundaries shall be shown and defined by distance and bearings.
(b) The proposed name of the subdivision and the streets therein shall be shown on the plat, and neither shall duplicate or closely approximate the names of subdivisions of streets within the City, or within three miles outside the corporate limits thereof.
(c) The location of the subdivision, with regard to City lots or outlots, and the names of all adjoining property owners of record shall be shown on the plat.
(d) The total acreage within the subdivision, including the lots and dedicated streets, alleys and crosswalks, shall be shown on the plat.
(e) A north arrow and scale shall be shown on the plat.
(f) Permanently installed markers which are adequate for a resurvey shall be shown on the plat. Each corner of each lot shall be marked with a permanent type marker. Such markers shall be in place at the time of acceptance of the subdivision by the City.
(g) The setback building line shall be shown at each lot in the subdivision.
(h) City lot numbers shall be approved by the City Engineer, according to Huron City progressive numbering system, immediately prior to the recording of the plat.
(i) The plat shall have the following printed or lettered in suitable places thereon:
I/we, the undersigned, owners of the land embraced within the subdivision, do hereby acknowledge this plat to be my/our free act and deed, and dedicate the streets, crosswalkways and alleys herein shown to public use forever. (Add waiver of dower clause, if needed.)
(If owner is a corporation, use corporate form.)
(Ord. 1961-3. Passed 7-31-61.)
