Purpose and intent. It is declared to be the policy of the Town Planning Board to consider land subdivisions as part of a plan for the orderly, efficient and economical development of the Town.

In order that land within the Town of Marion may be subdivided in accordance with this policy, these regulations are hereby adopted.
Should any of these regulations conflict or be inconsistent with any provision of the Town Law, such provision of the Town Law shall apply.
