C. As an alternative to this chapter, property owners may apply to adjust the boundaries of lots through a subdivision or subdivision amendment.
D. A parcel boundary or lot line adjustment may be filed in conjunction with a parcel or lot combination to reduce the number of parcels or lots to as few as two (2).
E. Property owners wishing to adjust the boundaries of more than two adjoining parcels or lots may do so through a series of parcel boundary or lot line adjustments, provided at each step of the series the resulting parcels or lots fully comply with the land use ordinance. Otherwise, the series shall be processed as a subdivision or subdivision amendment.
F. This chapter does not limit the ability of property owners to enter into a boundary line agreement without following the provisions of this chapter to establish the existing, unknown boundary line between parcels for the purpose of settling an ambiguity, uncertainty, or dispute, or to adjust the known common boundary line between adjacent parcels where neither parcel contains a dwelling. However, the city shall withhold approval of a land use application for property that is subject to a boundary line agreement that was not approved pursuant to this chapter if the manager determines that the parcels or lots established by the boundary line agreement were not in compliance with the land use ordinance in effect on the day the boundary line agreement was recorded.
G. A parcel boundary adjustment or lot line adjustment may not be used to alter or dedicate any public street or alley, land for public use, or municipal utility easement.
