ADMINISTRATION AND ENFORCEMENT
(A) Responsible official. It shall be the duty of the City Council to see that the provisions of this chapter are properly enforced by the Planning Commission.
(B) Building, land development, or zoning permit. No permit shall be issued by any governing official for the construction of any buildings, structures, or improvements on any land henceforth subdivided until all requirements of this chapter have been fully complied with.
(C) Minor subdivisions. In the case of a subdivision of small size and situated in a locality where conditions are well defined, the City Council may exempt the subdivider from complying with some of the requirements stipulated. In the case of a request to divide a lot which is part of a recorded plat where the division is to permit the adding of a parcel of land to an abutting lot or to create 2 lots and the newly created property line will not cause the other remaining portion of the lot to be in violation of this chapter, section, or division of the Zoning Ordinance, the division may be approved by the Council after submission of a survey and legal description showing the original lot and the proposed division.
(Ord. 217, passed 11-5-2001; Am. Ord. passed 2- -2004; Am. Ord. passed 4-5-2004; Am. Ord. passed 9-7-2004)
(A) Lot split. The simple division of a single parcel, tract, or lot to create no more than two lots and the newly created property line will not cause any portion of any lot or any structure to be in violation of any of the city's Municipal Code, Zoning Code, or other codes, ordinances, rules or statutes of the city or state.
(B) Lot combination. The simple combining of two parcels, tracts, or lots to create no more than one lot and the newly created property line will not cause any portion of any lot or any structure to be in violation of any of the city's Municipal Code, Zoning Code, or other codes, ordinances, rules or statutes of the city or state.
(C) Process. Whenever any parcel, tract, or lot is to be split or combined as set forth herein an application shall be made to the city's Zoning Administrator for the same along with the following requirements met:
(1) An application shall be completed by the applicant requesting a combination or splitting of land;
