Chapter shall be inspected during the course of construction by the
City Engineer or a duly designated representative of the City as provided
by ordinance.
B. The
construction of all improvements required by these rules and regulations
shall be completed within two (2) years from the date of approval

[CC 1990 §405.330; Ord. No. 97.053 §1, 11-10-1997]
A. A departure
may be made to a provision of this Chapter when a subdivider can show
that it would cause unnecessary hardship if strictly adhered to and
the Board of Adjustment determines that because of topographical or
other conditions peculiar to the site the departure may be made without
destroying the intent of such provision. The subdivider shall apply
in writing for such variance. Any variance or modification authorized
by the Board of Adjustment shall be noted in minutes of the meeting
convened on that date a copy thereof shall be attached to and made
a part of the final plat.
B. An
exception may be made from the specifications and procedures in the
case of a minor subdivision. The City Administrator may waive without
a variance request the requirement of submission of all other plans
except the record subdivision plat for a minor subdivision. A plat
of the proposed minor subdivision shall be submitted to the Chairman
of the Planning and Zoning Commission at least two (2) weeks prior
to the Planning and Zoning Commission meeting at which consideration
is desired, with four (4) black or blue line prints of the proposed
minor subdivision, who in turn shall forward their recommendation
and the plat to the Board of Aldermen for action. Action by the Board
of Aldermen shall take place at its next regular meeting. Approval
of the Board of Aldermen shall be indicated on the original drawing
by the affixing of the signatures of the Mayor and City Clerk and
the plat shall be returned to the applicant to be filed for record
in the miscellaneous record of the County Clerk.
C. In
such cases it is deemed necessary by the City Administrator, additional
pertinent data shall be submitted for review by the Planning and Zoning
Commission.
D. Where
a minor subdivision is proposed that fronts on an existing City or
County maintained road that is proposed for widening improvements
as determined by the City Administrator after a report from the Street
Department, the developer shall convey the necessary right-of-way.
