A. Map Established And Adopted: There is hereby established for the city and contiguous area an official map which is included herein by reference and adopted as part of these regulations.
B. Procedures: The official map may show sites for planned public facilities. Public facility sites which may be indicated on the official map may include, but are not limited to, sites for new trafficways or widening of existing trafficways, school and recreational sites, public building sites and sites for future storm drainage, electrical or other public service or utility easements.
1. Whenever the official map indicates the necessity for providing a site for a planned public facility, the city council may require that the site for the public use be designated on the subdivision plat before granting approval to such plat, and furthermore, that such site be held for that specific use for a period of one year from the date of final plat approval.
2. Whenever a site for public use shown on the official map has been required to be indicated on a subdivision plat, the responsible agency having jurisdiction of such use shall acquire the land so designated or commence proceedings to acquire such land by condemnation within one year from date of approval of such plat, and if it does not do so within such period of one year, the land so designated may then be used by the owners in any other manner consistent with this title and the appropriate zoning regulations 2 .
C. Amendments Or Additions To Map: Amendments to the official map, including the indication of additional public sites to be shown on the map, shall be considered amendments to this title and, therefore, shall be as specified in section 11-1-10 of this chapter. Any agency requesting the establishment on the official map of a future public site or easement which is not included in the comprehensive plan shall indicate to the plan commission the need for the site in the particular location specified. The plan commission, before making a favorable recommendation for the inclusion on the official map of such site by the city council, shall find that the public site location is consistent with the comprehensive plan of the community and shall so indicate in its minutes. (Ord. 2831, 3-3-1998)
