(2) When more than one sheet is used for any plat, each sheet shall be numbered consecutively and shall contain a notation giving the total number of sheets in the plat, and showing the relation of that sheet to the other sheets.
(B) In addition to the requirements found in Title 865 IAC Rule 12, the secondary plat shall show clearly on its face the following map and engineering information:

(3) Name, address, seal, and certification of the registered land surveyor preparing or certifying the subdivision;
(4) Scale, graphic bar, date, and north point;

Easements shall be shown by centerline and width when lines are parallel to a boundary; otherwise, boundary bearings and distances shall be shown;
(9) Any areas, other than public rights-of-way, to be dedicated or reserved for public use or semi-public, or areas to be reserved for the common use of all property owners, shall be shown on the drawing and labeled as to its use and shall have a separate legal description on the drawing with accurate dimensions in feet and hundredths thereof; and bearings expressed in degrees, minutes, and seconds;
(10) Regulatory flood boundary and elevation, shown and labeled, for any plat having land in a floodplain;

(17) The number of degrees and minutes (to the second) in all exterior boundary and block angles. When these angles are between a curve and its tangent, the angle shown shall be that between the tangent and the main chord of the curve. When between curves of different radii, the angle between the main chords shall be shown;

A Typical Lot Detail diagram shall be included on the plat. This shall include details on building setback lines, public utility and drainage easements for a typical interior lot and a typical corner lot. For subdivision developments with multiple housing types, the same details must be provided for lots of each type. An example of this notation is below;

(20) House numbers shall be designated on each lot. In order to prevent confusion in the permitting process, multi-unit structures shall identify and assign a house number for each specific unit on the plat, rather than simply providing a list of addresses;
