Effect of Such Platting.

   Section 101.   No streets or alleys, except those laid down on such plat and bearing the approval of the platting commissioners, as hereinbefore provided, shall subsequently in any way be accepted as public streets, or alleys, nor shall any public funds be expended in the repair or improvement of streets and alleys subsequently laid out and not on such plat. This restriction shall not apply to a street or alley laid out by the city, nor to streets, alleys, or public grounds laid out on a plat by the platting commissioners, when the owners of the grounds so platted shall have accepted the same, either by endorsing their acceptance upon such plat, or by selling lots with reference to the streets or alleys laid out thereon.
