After the preliminary plat has been approved, the final plat may be submitted for approval as follows: (1981 Code 301 § 3)
A. Approval Or Denial By City Council: Except as provided in subsection B of this section, the final plat shall be submitted to the city council for approval. If accepted, the final plat shall be approved by resolution, which resolution shall provide for the acceptance of all agreements for basic improvements, public dedication and other requirements as indicated by the city council. If disapproved, the grounds for any refusal to approve a plat shall be set forth in the proceedings of the council and reported to the person or persons applying for such approval.
B. Approval Or Denial By Planning Commission: Upon the request of the property owner, or where the city zoning administrator has determined that material changes have been made in the final plat subsequent to preliminary plat approval, the planning commission shall review the final plat. The final plat shall be filed with the city clerk and submitted to the planning commission at least twenty (20) days prior to a commission meeting at which consideration is requested. During the said twenty (20) days, the city staff shall examine the final plat and prepare a recommendation to the planning commission. Approval, disapproval, or any delay in decision of the final plat will be conveyed to the subdivider within ten (10) days after the meeting of the city planning commission at which such plat was considered. In case the plat is disapproved, the subdivider shall be notified in writing of the reason for such action and what requirements shall be necessary to meet the approval of the commission. After review by the planning commission, such final plat, together with the recommendations of the planning commission, shall be submitted to the city council for approval. (Ord. 282, 1-21-1991)
