The preliminary plat shall be clearly and legibly drawn or reproduced at a scale of not less than one inch equals 100 feet. Preliminary plats shall be designed and drawn by a licensed New Jersey land surveyor or by a planner holding full or associate membership in the American Institute of Planners. All engineering features involving design must be by an approved professional engineer. The plat shall be designed in compliance with the provisions of Article V of this chapter and shall show or be accompanied by the following information:
A.
A key map showing the entire subdivision and its relation
to surrounding areas.
B.
The tract name, Tax Map sheet, block and lot number
data, reference meridian, graphic scale and exterior boundary lines
of the property for which subdivision approval is being sought, delineated
by courses and distances, and the following names and addresses:
C.
In addition, the plat shall bear the following legend:
"The property for which subdivision is being sought extends to the
outer perimeters of the lines shown on this plat, and there are no
strips, gores or openings of any kind between the property herein
sought to be subdivided and the remaining property owned by the subdivider."
D.
The acreage of the tract to be subdivided to the nearest
1/10 of an acre.
E.

arise in the future. When an individual water supply and/or sewer
disposal system is proposed, the plan for such system must be approved
by the appropriate local, county or state health agency. When a public
sewage disposal system is not available, the subdivider shall have
one percolation test pit made for every building lot contemplated
by the subdivision at a place therein where a septic system shall
be installed and shall submit the results with the preliminary plat.
Any subdivision or part thereof which does not meet with the established
requirements shall not be approved. Any remedy proposed to overcome
such a situation shall first be approved by the appropriate local,
county or state health agency.

A copy of any protective covenants or deed restrictions
applying to the land being subdivided shall be submitted with the
preliminary plat.

Existing elevations or contours, based upon mean sea
level (United States Coast and Geodetic Survey), shall be shown at
five-foot intervals.
