The purpose of this chapter is to provide for creation and recording of plats that define lot lines and may dedicate public streets or alleys or land for public use, create municipal utility easements, create private rights-of-way, and otherwise act like a subdivision plat, but does not actually subdivide land. This chapter is to be used for situations where the parcel and lot combination, parcel boundary and lot line adjustment, and subdivision amendment processes do not apply.
