The Clerk shall also file copies of the plats and annexation ordinances as required by state statutes.
(3) Withdrawal of subdivision plat or annexation plat request. If the subdivider fails to submit to the Administrator a final plat conforming to the approved preliminary plat or any other requested document within 90 days after the advertised public hearing on the preliminary plat or annexation request, all official approvals of the Town Board or Planning Commission in regard thereto shall be deemed withdrawn.
(4) Administrative requirements.
(a) The Administrator may set reasonable deadlines for the filing of plans for consideration by the Technical Review Committee, the Planning Commission and the Town Board to allow adequate time for examination by its members.
