A. 
The Commission may adopt the plan as a whole by a single resolution or, as the work of making the whole City plan progresses, may from time to time adopt a part or parts thereof, any part to correspond generally with one (1) or more of the functional subdivisions of the subject matter of the plan.
1. 
Before the adoption, amendment or extension of the plan or portion thereof, the Commission shall hold at least one (1) public hearing thereon. Fifteen (15) days' notice of the time and place of such hearing shall be published in at least one (1) newspaper having general circulation within the municipality. The hearing may be adjourned from time to time. The adoption of the plan requires a majority vote of the full membership of the Planning Commission.
2. 
The resolution shall refer expressly to the maps, descriptive matter and other matters intended by the Commission to form the whole or part of the plan and the action taken shall be recorded on the adopted plan or part thereof by the identifying signature of the secretary of the Commission and filed in the office of the Commission, identified properly by file number and a copy of the plan or part thereof shall be certified to the Board of Aldermen and the City Clerk, and a copy shall be available in the office of the County Recorder of Deeds and shall be available at the Municipal Clerk's office for public inspection during normal office hours.
[R.O. 2011 §30-24; Ord. No. 2623 §1, 2-3-1986]
After the adoption of a major street plan, no building permit shall be issued for and no building shall be erected on any lot within the territorial jurisdiction of the Commission unless the street giving access to the lot upon which the building is proposed to be placed conforms to the requirements in Section 400.130 of this Article.
[R.O. 2011 §30-30; Ord. No. 2623 §1, 2-3-1986]
A. 
Whenever the Commission adopts the plan for the City of Salem or any part thereof, no street, public way, or other public facilities, or no public utility, whether publicly or privately owned, and the location, extent and character thereof having been included in the recommendations and proposals of the plan or portions thereof, shall be constructed or authorized in the said City until the location, extent and character thereof has been submitted to and approved by the Planning Commission.
1. 
In case of disapproval the Commission shall communicate its reasons to the Board of Aldermen, and the Board, by vote of not less than two-thirds (2/3) of its entire membership, may overrule the disapproval and, upon the overruling, the Board may proceed, except that if the public facility or utility is one the authorization or financing of which does not fall within the province of the Board, then the submission to the Planning Commission shall be by the Board having jurisdiction, and the Planning Commission's disapproval may be overruled by that Board by a vote of not less than two-thirds (2/3) of its entire membership.
2. 
The acceptance, widening, removal, extension, relocation, narrowing, vacation, abandonment, change of use, acquisition of land for, sale or lease of any street or other public facility is subject to similar submission and approval, and the failure to approve may be similarly overruled. The failure of the Commission to act within sixty (60) days after the date of official submission to it shall be deemed approval.
B. 
Upon adoption of a major street plan and subdivision regulations, the said City of Salem shall not accept, lay out, open, improve, grade, pave or light any street, lay or authorize the laying of water mains, sewers, connections or other utilities in any street within such City unless the street has received the legal status of a public street prior to the adoption of a City plan; or unless the street corresponds in its location and lines with a street shown on a subdivision plat approved by the Board of Aldermen or City Planning Commission or on a street plan made by and adopted by the Commission.
1. 
The Board of Aldermen may locate and construct or may accept any other street if the ordinance or other measure for the location and construction or for the acceptance is first submitted to the Commission for its approval and is approved by the Commission or, if disapproved by the Commission, is passed by the affirmative vote of not less than two-thirds (2/3) of the entire membership of the Board of Aldermen.
[R.O. 2011 §30-31; Ord. No. 2623 §1, 2-3-1986]
A. 
Within sixty (60) days after the submission of a plat to the Commission, the Commission shall approve or disapprove the plat; otherwise the plat is deemed approved by the Commission, except that the Commission, with the consent of the applicant for the approval, may extend the sixty (60) day period. The grounds of disapproval of any plat by the Commission shall be made a matter of record.
B. 
The approval of a plat by the Commission does not constitute or effect an acceptance by the City of Salem or public of the dedication to public use of any street or other ground shown upon the plat.
[R.O. 2011 §30-32; Ord. No. 2623 §1, 2-3-1986]
