The Planning Commission or the City Council may elect to place conditions upon the approval of the preliminary plat and may stipulate the requirements for satisfaction of such conditions. In addition, either the Planning Commission or the City Council may conditionally approve a preliminary plat which is submitted for consideration without complete improvement plans in order to expedite the review process. Such conditional approval shall be given only when the subdivider provides written assurance of plan submission within a specified period of time which will allow the adequate review of the plans prior to consideration of the final plat.
