A preliminary plat shall be required for all subdivisions within the Village and the Village's extraterritorial jurisdiction and shall be based upon a survey by a registered land surveyor. The plat shall be prepared on tracing cloth, reproducible drafting film, or paper of good quality at a map scale of not more than 100 feet to the inch and shall show correctly on its face the following information:
A.
Title or name under which the proposed subdivision is to be recorded;
B.
Proper location of the proposed subdivision by government lot, quarter-section, section, township, range, county, and state;
C.
General location sketch at 2,000 feet to the inch showing the location of the subdivision within the United States Public Land Survey section;
D.
Date, graphic scale and north point;
E.
Names and addresses of the owners, developer, land surveyor, and any other professional staff involved in preparing the plat;
F.
The entire area contiguous to the proposed plat in which the developer has a legal or equitable interest if such area is less than 100 acres in size, even though only a portion of such area is proposed for immediate development. If the legal or equitable contiguous ownership is 100 acres or more in size, the preliminary plat may include only that area of such land which is proposed to be developed immediately, provided that area has been included in an approved pre-preliminary sketch plan; the land area is at least 65 acres in size; and the remnant unplatted parcel is not less than 40 acres in size. The Village Board may modify these requirements where it is determined unnecessary to fulfill the purposes and intent of this chapter and undue hardship would result from strict application thereof.
