of Elma authorizes the Planning Board of the Town of Elma to review
each plat for land subdivision within the Town and to recommend to

In accordance with Article 9 of the Real Property Law, this amendment
provides for endorsement of the approved subdivision plat by the Town
Board prior to filing with the County Clerk.
