Each new subdivision becomes a permanent unit in the basic physical structure of the future community, a unit to which the future community will, of necessity, be forced to adhere. Piecemeal planning of such subdivisions, without correlation to the Comprehensive Plan, may and often does bring a disconnected patchwork of plats and poor circulation of traffic. In order to promote an attractive, orderly, stable and wholesome community environment, with adequate municipal services and efficient movement of traffic, any platting, subdivision, rearrangement, development or improvement of land within the jurisdiction of the city shall, in all respects, comply with the requirements of this chapter.
