A. 
Before filing of an application for the approval of a preliminary plat or certified survey map, the subdivider is encouraged to submit a concept plan and to consult with City staff for advice regarding general subdivision requirements. Information on meeting dates, agenda deadlines and filing requirements may be obtained from the City Clerk. The concept plan would show the relationship of the proposed subdivision or certified survey to traffic arteries and existing community facilities. This consultation is neither formal nor mandatory but is intended to inform the subdivider of the purpose and objectives of these regulations, the Comprehensive Plan, Comprehensive Plan components and plan implementation devices of the City and to otherwise assist the subdivider in planning his development. The subdivider will gain a better understanding of the subsequent required procedures.[1]

D. 
Environmental assessment.
(1) 
Filing requirement. An Environmental Assessment Checklist (Appendix A)[4] shall be completed by the subdivider for review by the Planning Commission with the preliminary plat, or preferably as part of the pre-application conference, for any subdivision or land division by certified survey which the City has authority to approve.
[4]
Editor's Note: Appendix A is included as an attachment to this chapter.
(2) 
Purpose. The purpose of this Environmental Assessment Checklist is to provide the basis for an orderly, systematic review of the effects of all new subdivisions upon the community environment in accordance with the principles and procedures of Wisconsin Statutes set for local subdivision regulation. The Planning Commission will use these procedures in determining land suitability. The goals of the community in requiring this checklist are to eliminate or reduce pollution and siltation to an acceptable standard, assume ample living space per capita, preserve open space and parks for recreation, provide adequately for stormwater control, maintain scenic beauty and aesthetic surroundings, administer to the economic and cultural needs of the citizens and provide for the effective and efficient flow of goods and services.
(3) 
Coverage. The Environmental Assessment Checklist shall apply to all reviewable subdivisions, and land divisions by certified survey. The Planning Commission may waive the requirement for the filing of an Environmental Assessment Checklist for land divisions by certified survey of less than five acres total area.
(4) 
Preliminary checklist for environmental assessment of plats, land divisions and community development plans. An Environmental Assessment Checklist form as required under this subsection is available from the City Engineer. The Planning Commission shall review the checklist annually.[5]

Where the subdivider owns property adjacent to that which is being proposed for the subdivision, the subdivider shall comply with the requirements of § 512-18A(5) for the remainder of the property so as to show the possible relationships between the proposed subdivision and future subdivision. In any event, all subdivisions must be shown to relate well with existing or potential adjacent subdivisions.
G. 
Street plans and profiles. The subdivider shall provide preliminary street profiles showing existing ground surface, including extensions for a reasonable distance beyond the limits of the proposed subdivision when requested.
H. 
Soil testing. The subdivider may be required to provide a preliminary soils report, listing the types of soil in the proposed subdivision, their effect on the subdivision and a proposed soil testing and investigation program. Pursuant to the public policy concerns prescribed in § 512-7, the City Engineer may, in addition, require that borings and soundings be made in specified areas to ascertain subsurface soil, rock and water conditions, including depth to bedrock and depth to groundwater table. A minimum of one boring per thousand feet of center-line street to a minimum depth of 15 feet is required.
I. 
Referral to other agencies and utilities.
(1) 
Utilities. The subdivider shall also forward a copy to the local electric, gas, cable television and telephone utilities.

The Department of Administration, the Department of Transportation and the Department of Safety and Professional Services shall be hereinafter referred to as "objecting agencies." The City Clerk shall also transmit a copy of the preliminary plat to other affected City boards, commissions or departments for their review and recommendations concerning matters within their jurisdiction.[6]

The City Clerk shall communicate to the subdivider the action of the Planning Commission. If the preliminary plat is approved, the City Clerk shall endorse it for the Planning Commission.
(2) 
Upon approval of the preliminary plat, the Planning Commission shall refer copies of the preliminary plat as approved to the City Clerk. An abstract of title or registered property report may be referred to the City Attorney for his examination and report.
