1220.12   APPROVAL OF PLANS; AMENDMENTS.
   (A)   Construction Within the City. Prior to the start of any of the work proposed in the plans submitted under Section 1220.11 within the corporate limits, such plans shall be approved by the Planning Commission and endorsed on each copy by the City Engineer and the Mayor.
      Two copies of the approved plans shall be returned to the subdivider, one copy shall be returned to the Commission and two copies shall be retained in the files of the City Engineer.
   (B)   Construction Outside the City. For subdivisions outside the corporate limits but within a three-mile radius of such limits, all plans shall be approved by the Commission and all copies endorsed by the County Engineer and any duly designated County Sanitary Engineer prior to the start of any of the work proposed in the plans.
      One copy of the approved plans shall be returned to the office of the County Engineer, one copy to the duly designated County Sanitary Engineer, one copy to the Commission and two copies to the subdivider.
   (C)   Changes in Construction Plans. No construction of improvements required by this chapter shall be done in any manner other than that indicated on the approved plans, unless such changes are first approved and endorsed in the manner required in subsections (a) and (b) hereof on five copies of amended construction plans. However, minor changes caused by construction conditions may be approved by the Commission, with the approval of either the City Engineer or the County Engineer, as required herein, and shall be recorded on the copies of the plans in the files of the City or County. Prior to the start of any of the work covered by the plans approved as herein required, four copies of the amended construction plans shall be furnished to the City Engineer or the County Engineer, as the case may be, and arrangements shall be made to provide for inspection of the work sufficient, in the opinion of the City Engineer or the County Engineer, to insure compliance with the plans and specifications as approved. Written approval to start work shall be obtained from the City Engineer or the County Engineer.

1220.13   COMPLETION OF IMPROVEMENTS; RELEASE OF BOND.
   (A)   Upon satisfactory recommendation for approval of all improvements by the City Engineer or the County Engineer, the bond may be released, in writing, by the Planing Commission or the cashier's certified check may be returned to the developer. However, if the Commission finds that the improvements are not completed as specified, the checks or moneys may be used to complete such improvements.
   (B)   The construction of all improvements required by these Subdivision Regulations must be completed within one year from the date of the bond required in Section 1220.01. However, when unusual or exceptional factors exist, the Commission may grant an extension of time, upon the recommendation of the City Engineer or the County Engineer.

1220.14   PLAT APPROVAL; INSPECTIONS.
   The approval of the plat by the Planning Commission shall not be an acceptance of the dedication of any public street, road or highway dedicated in such plat. The City Engineer or, when the plat is within a three-mile radius of the corporate limits, the County Engineer, shall, upon written request by the owner of the land upon which the street has been constructed, check the construction. If the Engineer finds that such street has been constructed in accordance with the plans and specifications approved for the plat and that such street is in good repair, then such findings shall be endorsed on the approved plat.

   When unusual or exceptional factors or conditions exist, the Planning Commission may modify any of the provisions of these Subdivision Regulations except those provided in Sections 1220.01 to 1220.03, inclusive, in which cases approval of modifications shall be secured from Council if the subdivision is within the City. However, the Commission may modify any of the provisions of Sections 1220.01 to 1220.03, inclusive, without Council's approval if the subdivision is outside the corporate limits. A written statement of the reason for such modifications shall be attached to all copies of the construction plans, as required under Section 1220.11, and shall be approved in the manner provided in Section 1220.12.
