[Prior code § 18.08(1)]
The following policies shall govern the Village Plan Commission in approving division of land within the extraterritorial area in order to protect rural character and farming viability, if the Village elects to apply its extraterritorial land division authority through board resolution.
A. 
No subdivisions as defined in this title will be permitted within the 1 1/2 mile extraterritorial limits of the Village, without approval of the Village Board.
B. 
Minor subdivisions will be permitted for farm-related dwellings and for rural residential dwelling, not exceeding an overall density of one dwelling unit for 35 acres, exclusive of the farmstead. Lots for commercial use will be handled on a case-by-case basis. The standards used to review these land divisions will be the same as the standards contained in the Walworth County exclusive agricultural zoning district ordinances which are used for considering rezonings. The only exception to this policy is that lots resulting in the infill of existing subdivisions may be permitted.
C. 
The minimum lot size in the 1 1/2 mile extraterritorial area shall be one acre. A smaller lot size may be allowed if also approved by the respective town board.
D. 
The Village will attempt to seek consistency of locally adopted town plans. To the extent that the policies of the Village are more restrictive, the Village's policies shall prevail. All minor subdivisions within the extraterritorial area will be subject to the land reservation or dedication requirements of this title. This specifically means the following:
1. 
Any waterway or storm water management area identified on the Village master plan or official map shall be dedicated in conformance with requirements of this title;
2. 
Any lands falling within the limits of an environmental corridor, as mapped by the Village will be required to record a public open space easement specifying that the use shall be consistent with conservancy area zoning in the Village zoning ordinance.
E. 
Lands falling within the mile and a half of the extraterritorial area shall be required to meet all of the design standards contained in this title.
F. 
Minor subdivisions within the extraterritorial area will be required to follow erosion control plans in compliance with this title.
G. 
All land divisions within the extraterritorial area shall pay the required review fees contained in this title.
H. 
The Plan Commission may require placement of covenants or deed restrictions that are deemed necessary and appropriate by the Village Plan Commission to protect the purpose and intent of the Village's plans and ordinances. Any such restrictions shall be placed on the face of the certified survey map or on surrounding lands from which the lot or lots were created to verify the density standard established herein.
I. 
If a variance is granted to the above provision the resulting division of land shall conform to all of the pertinent regulations of this title.
[Prior code § 18.08(2)]
In all cases, the time period within which action is required shall not begin until the town board, the staff serving the Walworth County zoning committee, and the Village have received all maps, drawings and data required for plat approval.
A. 
No person, firm or corporation shall divide any land located within the 1 1/2 mile extraterritorial plat approval jurisdiction of the Village, without first filing an application and a certified survey map for approval by the Plan Commission.
B. 
Pre-application Procedure. Before filing an application for approval of a certified survey, the subdivider shall consult with the director of public works and shall prepare the following:
1. 
Prepare a preliminary sketch for review and approval;
2. 
Complete a concept plan (per Section 16.12.050) and a site assessment checklist (per Section 16.12.030), or when required, an expanded site assessment report (per Section 16.12.040) for review and approval. This procedure is intended to assist the developer in appraising the objectives of these regulations, the master plan, the official map and other pertinent Village ordinances. The pre-application information shall be submitted to the Plan Commission for review and approval.
[Prior code § 18.08(3)]
Submittal requirements for land divisions within the extraterritorial land division jurisdiction enacted by Village Board resolution shall be identical to those required for land divisions within the Village limits.
