(A) Survey submitted. Within two years of the written decision approving a tentative partition, two copies of the final survey of the approved partition shall be submitted to the city for review. If the final survey is not submitted within one year, the tentative approval shall lapse.
(B) Final approval. If the final survey of the partition is consistent with the approved partition, if the conditions of approval have been satisfied and, if the City Council has accepted dedication of any newly created public roads by either accepting a deed of dedication on a form acceptable to the city or authorizing the Mayor or other City Council designee to sign an acceptance of dedication on the final plat map, the city shall mark the survey map “Approved” and shall:
(1) Transmit one copy of the approved partition or the original Mylar with acceptance of public road dedication to the applicant for recording;
(2) Retain one copy for the city’s files; and
(3) Send a final approval letter to the County Surveyor with instructions for final review and recording of the final plat.
(C) Recording of approved partition required. The applicant is responsible for recording the approved partition with the County Records office. A building permit shall not be issued, or parcel sold, transferred or assigned, until the approved partition has been recorded.
(D) Improvements/bonding. Prior to issuance of a building permit, all improvements required by the conditions of approval shall be constructed or the construction shall be guaranteed through an irrevocable letter of credit, assignment of bank account, performance bond or other instrument acceptable to the City Attorney. If ownership of a parcel is transferred prior to satisfaction of the conditions of approval, the new owner shall be notified in writing of these conditions by the transferor.
