Notwithstanding the provisions set forth herein, a proposed division of a parcel of land along an existing public street, not involving the opening, widening or extension of any street or road, and involving no more than five lots after the original tract has been completely subdivided, may be submitted to the Planning Commission without the plat. The Commission acting through the Engineer, as its designated representative, may recommend that Council approve the proposed conveyance if they are satisfied that such division is not contrary to any applicable platting, subdividing or zoning regulations, which includes the Major Street Plan; or any rule or regulation which the Planning Commission may have adopted for the processing of such divisions or the conduct of its business. The applicant shall submit a plat map showing the division of such land in its correctness and shall contain information as is pertinent to its determination hereunder. When the Engineer and Council are satisfied that the information submitted is sufficient for their determination, they shall decide upon such plat. Evidence of approval by the Planning Commission will be indicated by a stamp or statement reading "Approved by the Planning Commission and Council, City of Richmond Heights, Ohio - No Plat Required." The plat of the division which has been thus stamped, dated and signed by both the Clerk of Council and the Engineer shall constitute approval under this section.
If such conveyance is not submitted for recording in the office of the County Recorder within sixty days of such approval, the approval as provided for herein shall be null and void.
