It is recommended that, prior to the filing of an application
for the approval of a certified survey or preliminary plat, the subdivider
consult with the City Zoning Administrator in order to obtain his
advice and assistance. This consultation is neither formal nor mandatory
but is intended to inform the subdivider of duly adopted ordinances,
rules, regulations and plans of the City and to otherwise assist the
subdivider in planning the development.

two copies to Grant County and two copies to each of the state agencies

of copies to the City Plan Commission and Common Council.

of approval or the reasons for rejection shall accompany the plat.
One copy each of the plat and letter shall be placed in the City Plan
Commission's and Common Council's permanent files.

Failure of the Common Council to act within 90 days shall constitute
an approval.

constitute automatic approval of the final plat, except that if the
final plat is submitted within 36 months of preliminary plat approval
and conforms substantially to the preliminary plat layout as indicated
in § 236.11(1)(b), Wis. Stats., the final plat shall be
entitled to approval with respect to such layout. The preliminary
plat shall be deemed an expression of approval or conditional approval
of the layout submitted as a guide to the preparation of the final
plat, which will be subject to further consideration by the City Plan
Commission and Common Council at the time of its submission.
