170.01 TITLE AND PURPOSE.

The purpose of this chapter is to provide for the harmonious development of the City and adjacent territory by establishing appropriate standards for streets, blocks, lots, utilities, and other improvements, by promoting coordination with existing developments, and by establishing procedures and conditions for the approval of subdivisions of land, all in the interest of the health, safety, and general welfare of the community.

170.02 JURISDICTION.

The provisions of these regulations shall apply to all land being divided for the creation of lots or parcels for subsequent sale or transfer located within the legal boundaries of the City, and the same as may be amended by subsequent annexation, and shall also include all land within an area extending two miles beyond the City limits other than for agricultural purposes. This chapter applies to all plats, corrections or modifications of plats, and vacations submitted after the date of adoption of the ordinance codified in this chapter. This chapter applies to a subdivision consistent with existing law, within a plat, which was recorded after the initial adoption of the ordinance codified in this chapter on February 26, 1967.
