§ 151.205  PURPOSE AND INTERPRETATION.
   (A)   Each new subdivision becomes a permanent unit in the basic physical structure of the community, a unit with which the future community will, of necessity, be forced to comply.
   (B)   Haphazard and piecemeal planning of subdivisions, without correlation to a plan, will result in a disconnected patchwork of plats with poor traffic circulation and expensive provision of utilities.
   (C)   In order that new subdivisions will contribute toward an attractive, orderly, stable and wholesome community environment, adequate municipal services and efficient movement of traffic, all subdivisions hereafter platted within the jurisdiction of the city shall comply with the regulations set forth in this subchapter.
   (D)   In their interpretation and application the provisions of this subchapter are minimum requirements adopted for the protection of the public health, safety, and general welfare.
