Once the Final Plat has been approved by the Planning Commission, the following process must be followed by the Developer to be granted Final Plat approval by County Council:
The Developer must have furnished a Performance Bond or Bonds for the amount of the estimated construction cost of the ultimate installation of the improvements. (Refer to Section 1110.04(b)).
After all required approvals are secured, the required Bonds are posted, and the final Special Conditions Agreement is executed, the original Mylar or Paper Final Plat and the Agreement shall be taken by the Developer and/or Developer's Agent to the County Engineer for processing and signature on the Final Plat. If signatures have not yet been obtained from the Planning Commission on the Final Plat, Staff will obtain Planning Commission signatures and return the Final Plat to the County Engineer's Office. The County Engineer, after reviewing and approving the Bonds, shall submit the Final Plat and the proposed Agreement to the County Executive's Department of Law for preparation of legislation to approve the Final Plat. Upon approval by County Council and the County Executive, then the Final Plat is submitted to the County Fiscal Officer's Treasurer Division Real Estate/Appraisal for checking. The Developer and/or Developer's agent, then takes the Final Plat and the Special Conditions Agreement to the County Fiscal Officer for recording. No Final Plat of any Subdivision nor any Special Conditions Agreement shall be recorded in the Office of the County or have any validity until it has been approved and processed in the manner prescribed herein. In the event any such unapproved Final Plat and/or Special Conditions Agreement is recorded, it shall be considered invalid. All costs for recording of the Final Plat and the Special Conditions Agreement shall be borne by the Owner and/or Developer.
The approvals by County Council of a Final Plat and of a Special Conditions Agreement shall automatically expire one (1) year from the date of approval, unless the Final Plat and the Agreement are officially recorded in Summit County.
