A.
Within six months after classification of the sketch plan as a minor subdivision by the Planning Board, the subdivider shall submit an application for approval of a subdivision plat. Failure to do so unless waived by the Planning Board shall require resubmission of the sketch plan to the Planning Board for reclassification. The plat shall conform to the layout shown on the sketch plan plus any recommendations made by the Planning Board. Said application shall also conform to the requirements listed in § 174-72.
B.
All applicants for plat approval for minor subdivisions shall be
accompanied by a fee of $25 per lot for each lot in the proposed subdivision.
Three Mylar prints and two paper prints of the subdivision plat
shall be presented to the Clerk of the Planning Board at the time
of submission of the subdivision plat.
The subdivider or his duly authorized representative shall attend
the meeting of the Planning Board to discuss the subdivision plat.
The time of submission of the subdivision plat shall be considered to be the date on which the application for plat approval, complete and accompanied by the required fee and all data required by § 174-72 of these regulations, has been filed with the Clerk of the Planning Board.
A public hearing shall be held by the Planning Board within
45 days from the time of submission of the subdivision plat for approval.
Said hearing shall be advertised in a newspaper of general circulation
in the Town at least five days before such hearing.
The Planning Board shall, within 45 days from the date of the
public hearing, act to conditionally approve, conditionally approve
with modification, disapprove or grant final approval and authorize
the signing of the subdivision plat. This time may be extended by
mutual consent of the subdivider and the Planning Board. Failure of
the Planning Board to act within such time shall constitute approval
of the plat. Upon granting conditional approval with or without modification
to the plat, the Planning Board shall empower a duly authorized officer
to sign the plat upon compliance with such conditions and requirements
as may be stated in its resolution of conditional approval. Within
five days of the resolution granting conditional approval, the plat
shall be certified by the Clerk of the Planning Board as conditionally
approved and a copy filed in his office and a certified copy mailed
to the subdivider. The copy mailed to the subdivider shall include
a certified statement of such requirements which, when completed,
will authorize the signing of the conditionally approved plat. Upon
completion of such requirements, the plat shall be signed by the duly
designated officer of the Planning Board. Conditional approval of
a plat shall expire 180 days after the date of the resolution granting
such approval unless the requirements have been certified as completed
within that time. The Planning Board may, however, extend the time
within which a conditionally approved plat may be submitted for signature
if, in its opinion, such extension is warranted in the circumstances,
for not to exceed two additional periods of 90 days each.
