Upon receiving the recommendations of the City Engineer on a proposed subdivision, the Planning Commission shall approve or disapprove the proposal. The chairman of the Planning Commission shall show the action of the Commission in regard to approval or disapproval on the preliminary plat as submitted, and will inform the developer and other public agencies involved of the Commission's action on the proposed plat. In the case of disapproval, the reason for the disapproval shall be clearly indicated on the plat.
The Planning Commission's approval of a preliminary plat for a proposed subdivision is only preliminary or tentative in nature and shall become void if the final plat for the proposed subdivision is not submitted for approval within one year after preliminary approval has been granted. In the subdivision of a large tract of land, the developer may obtain final approval for a portion of the plat, and the Planning Commission, upon written request, may grant an extension of time for the submission of the remainder of the subdivision for approval, providing no changes are made in the plat for the remaining portion.
