Where a lot or parcel has been previously created and a payment has been made, then if the lot or parcel is further divided, payment shall be required only for the additional parcels or residential lots created.
(6) 
Professional fees.

[Code 1992, § 18.04(5)]
Each condominium project shall be reviewed on the basis of a condominium plat prepared pursuant to W.S.A., § 703.11, and other applicable statutes, as well as these land division and subdivision regulations as a plat or certified survey map for the land development or subdivision elements of the project. Procedures outlined in section 66-36 shall apply to city review of condominium project plat.
[Code 1992, § 18.04(6)]
The city engineer or the city building inspector may require the owners of the adjoining property who have sold or exchanged parcels of land between themselves so as to effect a lot line adjustment to furnish evidence that the resulting lots have not been reduced below the minimum sizes required by this chapter, the city zoning ordinance or other applicable laws or ordinances. The evidence shall be in the form of either a plat of survey or a point of the area marked to show the new lot line stakes and the dimensions of the resulting lots, stamped by a registered land surveyor, and that the new lot line has been staked on the ground by the registered land surveyor. Such evidence shall be submitted no later than 30 days following the written request therefor made by the city engineer or city building inspector to the owners. No person shall sell or exchange parcels of land between adjoining property if additional lots are created without complying with this chapter or if the lots resulting are reduced below the minimum sizes required by this chapter, the city zoning ordinance or other applicable laws or ordinances.
