(2) No concept plan, preliminary plan, or final plans are required. Minor plats and replats are administratively approved by the Planning Director and must comply with all requirements of a plat in § 152.051.
(B) Minor plats requirements:
(1) A minor plat is a plat containing not more than three lots fronting on an existing road and meets all of the following requirements:
(a) Does not require the dedication of a right-of-way or construction of new roads;
(b) Does not require the creation of easements;
(c) Does not create a lot or tract eligible for any public or private improvements other than sidewalks;
(d) Does not landlock or otherwise impair convenient ingress or egress to or from the rear side of the subject tract or any adjacent property;
(e) Does not change the grades from the grading plan which was submitted and approved with the original plat or, if the grades are going to be changed, then a grading plan shall be submitted and approved for the minor plat or replat;
(f) Does not significantly change any plans that have been prepared for the placement of any other utilities in the subdivision;
(g) Does not adversely affect the remainder of the parcel or adjoining property; and
(h) Does not conflict with any provision or portion of the comprehensive plan, official map, zoning ordinance, or these regulations.
(2) A replat includes all the requirements of a minor plat and shall also include the minor vacation of existing platted lines to achieve either a reconfiguration of the existing recorded plat or change the number of recorded lots in the subdivision only where the perimeter of the tract being replatted is not altered by the replat. Also, a replat shall certify that the platting vacates the existing plat.
