(A) This chapter, which was enacted pursuant to Indiana home rule and planning enabling legislation (IC 36-1-3-4 and the 36-7-4-700 series, as amended), authorizes the Plan Commission to review and approve or disapprove plats for subdivision throughout the city, and its jurisdiction, which show lots, blocks, or sites with or without new streets or highways. This authority extends to the development or resubdivision of undeveloped portions of already recorded plats.
(B) No building permit or certificate of occupancy shall be issued for any parcel or plat of land which was created by subdivision after the effective date of, and not in conformity with, the provisions of these subdivision regulations, and no excavation of land or construction of any public or private improvements shall take place or be commenced except in conformity with the regulations contained herein and in conformity with construction standards adopted by the city.
