[Ord. No. 976 §2.1, 11-25-1997]
A.
Classification Of Subdivisions. Whenever any subdivision
of land is proposed, before any contract is made for the sale of any
part thereof and before any permit for the erection of a structure
in such proposed subdivision shall be granted, the subdividing owner
or his authorized agent shall apply for and secure approval of such
proposed subdivision in accordance with the following procedures outlined
in this Article for either a minor subdivision, lot split or major
subdivision.
B.
Minor Subdivisions. If the plat does not include more than
three (3) lots, each of which have frontage on existing streets, does
not require any new streets, the extension of City facilities, the
creation of any public improvements or the vacation of any streets,
alleys or easements, it is classified as a minor subdivision and the
subdivider may proceed in accordance with the requirements of these
regulations pertaining to minor subdivisions.
C.
Lot Splits (Resubdivisions). Whenever a resubdivision of
an established and legally approved or recorded subdivision lot is
proposed, i.e, a lot split, the subdivider shall file an application
for a lot split and comply with the provisions of these regulations
pertaining to lot splits.
D.
Major Subdivisions.
1.
If the
plat includes four (4) or more lots or requires new streets, the extension
of City facilities or creation of any public improvements, it shall
be classified as a major subdivision.
2.
The
designation of either a major or minor subdivision will be established
at the pre-filing review meeting between the applicant and the Enforcement
Officer.
E.
Reclassification Of Minor Subdivisions. The development
of successive minor subdivisions by the same owner or developer or
by a person in privity with the owner or developer, so as to circumvent
the requirements of these regulations with respect to major subdivisions
shall be prohibited. Whenever a minor subdivision is developed from
the same general tract of land as a previously developed minor subdivision
or where successive minor subdivisions are developed so as to constitute
a major subdivision within the meaning of these regulations, the Planning
Commission shall treat the entire development as a major subdivision
and require adherence to the provisions of these regulations pertaining
to major subdivisions.
F.
Official Submission Dates. For the purpose of these regulations,
the date of the regular meeting of the Planning Commission at which
the public hearing on final approval of the subdivision plat, including
any adjourned date thereof, is closed, shall constitute the official
submittal date of the plat at which the sixty (60) day period required
by Section 89.420, RSMo., for formal approval or disapproval of the
plat will commence.
[Ord. No. 976 §2.2, 11-25-1997]
A.
Prior
to the filing of an application for the approval of a major or minor
subdivision plat or lot split, the subdivider shall discuss with the
Enforcement Officer the procedure for adoption of a major or minor
subdivision plat or lot split and the requirements as to the general
layout of streets and for reservations and dedications of land, street
improvements, drainage, sewerage, water supply and similar matters.
The Enforcement Officer shall also advise the applicant, where appropriate,
to discuss the proposed subdivision with those officials who must
eventually approve aspects of the subdivision plat coming within their
jurisdiction.
B.
Classification. Classification of the proposed subdivision shall be made by the Enforcement Officer at the pre-filing conference. The subdivider shall proceed in accordance with Section 410.190 of these regulations if the subdivision is classified as a minor subdivision, or if classified as a major subdivision, the subdivider must file an application for approval of a preliminary plat before filing for final subdivision plat approval.
[Ord. No. 976 §2.3, 11-25-1997; Ord. No. 1151 §1, 2-9-2000]

conference between the subdivider and the Enforcement Officer, the
subdivider shall submit five (5) copies of a final subdivision plat
under seal of a licensed land surveyor, registered in the State of
Missouri and accompanied by a fee in accordance with the current fees
schedule included in these regulations. The subdivision plat shall

all residential developments which anticipate the selling of structures
and land for individual ownership, (i.e., condominiums, single-family
dwellings, town homes, duplexes), a schedule of market values of the
proposed units, including the land value, shall be set out per lot.
The number of units proposed in each of the following value ranges
shall be identified:
(1)

The lot numbers indicated on the preliminary plat shall be used
to indicate which lots fall into each price range. This schedule will
be referenced by the building department as building permits are issued
to insure a balance of dwelling values is maintained.
|
|
|
The Planning Commission shall consider housing market indicators
for Platte County in determining an appropriate mix of values for
the preliminary plat being considered. The Commission shall also consider
current, residential property value concentrations in Platte City
as presented annually through County property value assessments
|
|
|
The intent of this requirement is to provide the Planning Commission
information necessary to insure a variety of home values will be available
within Platte City in the future. A range of housing values encourages
a diversified citizenry which in turn makes the community less vulnerable
to fluctuations in the economy and thereby promotes stability within
the City on a whole.

The intent
of this Section is to provide for the issuance of building permits
in lots divided into not more than two (2) tracts without having to
replat said lot, provided that the resulting lots shall not again
be divided without replatting. The Planning Commission may approve
or disapprove lot splits in accordance with the following regulations:
1.
Application procedure. Requests for lot split approval shall
be made by the owner of the land to the City Clerk on forms available

of the lots involved and the location of any structure(s) thereon
together with the precise nature, location and dimensions of the proposed
lot split shall accompany the application.
2.
Approval guidelines. Approval or disapproval of lot splits
shall be made based on the following guidelines:

No
lot split shall be approved if:
(1)
A new street or alley is needed or proposed.
(2)
A vacation of streets, alleys, setback lines, access control or easements
is required or proposed.
(3)
Such action will result in significant increases in service requirements,
(e.g., utilities, schools, traffic control, streets, etc.) or will
interfere with maintaining existing service levels (e.g., additional
curb cuts, repaving, etc.).
(4)
There is less street right-of-way than required by these regulations
or the Comprehensive Plan unless such dedication can be made by separate
instrument.
(5)
All easement requirements have not been satisfied.
(6)
Such split will result in a tract without direct access to a street.
(7)
A substandard size lot or parcel will be created.
(8)
The lot has been previously split in accordance with these regulations.
(9)
The lot split will create a lot with structures not meeting zoning
requirements.
b.
The
Planning Commission may make such additional recommendations as deemed
necessary to carry out the intent and purpose of existing land development
regulations and Governing Body policy. Requirements may include, but
not be limited to, installation of public facilities, dedication of
rights-of-way and easements and submission of covenants for the protection
of other landowners in the original subdivision.

Sectionalizing Major Subdivision Plats.

The Planning Commission shall require that the performance bond be in such amount as is commensurate with the section or sections of the plat to be filed and may defer the remaining required performance bond principal amount until the remaining sections of the plat are offered for filing. The developer may also file irrevocable offers to dedicate streets and public improvements in the sections offered to be filed and defer filing offers of dedication for the remaining sections until such sections, subject to any conditions imposed by the Planning Commission, shall be granted concurrently with the final approval of the plat. In the event of approval of sectionalizing the entire approved subdivision plat including all sections shall be filed within ninety (90) days after date of final approval with the City Clerk's office and such sections as have been authorized by the Planning Commission shall be filed with the Platte County Recorder of Deeds. Such section must contain at least ten percent (10%) of the total number of lots contained in the approved plat. The approval of all remaining sections not filed with the Platte County Recorder of Deeds shall automatically expire unless such sections have been approved for filing by the Planning Commission, all fees paid, all instruments and offers of dedication submitted and performance bonds approved and actually filed with the Platte County Recorder of Deeds within three (3) years of the date of final approval of the subdivision plat. (See Section 410.210 of these Regulations.)
