§ 155.080 VALIDITY OF PRELIMINARY PLAN; REAFFIRMATION OF PRELIMINARY PLAN.
   (A)   The preliminary plan shall be valid for a period of three years after Village Board approval. If the final plat has not been submitted to the Planning Commission within said three-year period; or, if submitted, no final plat is approved, the preliminary plan shall expire.
   (B)   If the subdivider has not submitted a final plat within three years after preliminary plan approval, but wishes to avoid expiration of the plan, the subdivider shall seek reaffirmation of the plan by submitting 13 prints to the Village Clerk for review according to the review schedule established by the Planning Commission in accordance with §§ 155.077 through 155.079 of this chapter no later than 35 months after the initial Village Board approval. If the subdivider has submitted a final plat within said three-year period, but it is not approved during or after said three-year period, the subdivider may avoid expiration of the preliminary plan by making the same preliminary plan reaffirmation submission described above, provided that if the disapproval of the final plat occurs during or after the thirty-fifth month, the submission required shall be made within one month of such disapproval. In such event, the review process in §§ 155.077 through 155.079 of this chapter shall be followed.
   (C)   Where reaffirmation of the preliminary plan is sought, the Planning Commission shall recommend, and the Village Board shall require, any changes in the plan it deems necessary to meet the requirements of this chapter. If the subdivider has not resubmitted the preliminary plan with the required changes to the Village Board within 30 days after the Village Board meeting requiring changes or, if the resubmitted plan is disapproved, the plan shall expire at that time or at the end of any appeal process provided for in this chapter, whichever is later.
   (D)   A preliminary plan may be reaffirmed one time. If a final plat has not been submitted to the Planning Commission within three years from the date of the reaffirmation or, if submitted, is not approved, the plan shall expire.
   (E)   Final plat approval shall extend the validity of the preliminary plan for three years from the date of final plat approval; provided that, the Planning Commission may require any changes necessary to meet the requirements of this chapter and, in such an event, the provisions of division (C) above with respect to resubmission shall apply. The preliminary plan may be reaffirmed one time after each final plat approval. If another final plat has not been resubmitted within three years from the date of the reaffirmation, the preliminary plan shall expire. In the event a preliminary plan expires, a subdivider wishing to proceed with subdivision of the land involved must resubmit a location and sketch map for review and proceed as in the case of an original submittal.
