A. 
Application. The subdivider shall, within six months after the preliminary approval of the preliminary plan, file with the Planning Board an application for approval of the final subdivision plan in the form described herein. If the final plan is not submitted to the Planning Board within six months after the approval of the preliminary plan, the Planning Board may refuse without prejudice to act on the final plan and require resubmission of the preliminary plan. All applications for final plan approval for the subdivision shall be accompanied by a fee set by the Town of Frye Island, payable by check to the Town of Frye Island.
B. 
Department of Environmental Protection review and approval, where required. If the proposed subdivision is in any way subject to review by the State of Maine Department of Environmental Protection, then the approval of the State of Maine Department of Environmental Protection shall be secured in writing before official submission of the final plan.
C. 
Sewage disposal. Sewage disposal systems shall conform to the State Plumbing Code. The Planning Board shall require on-site soils investigation reports on each lot prior to final approval.
D. 
Public hearing. A public hearing may be held by the Planning Board within 30 days after the time of submission of the final plan for approval. A hearing shall be advertised twice in the Frye Island News Service newspaper at least seven days before such hearing, and notice of said hearing shall be posted in at least three prominent places at least seven days prior to the hearing.
A. 
Submittal of performance guarantee. The final plan shall be accompanied by a performance guaranty tendered in the form of either a certified check payable to the Town of Frye Island, a savings account passbook issued in the name of the Town, or a faithful performance bond running to the Town of Frye Island and issued by a surety company acceptable to the Planning Board. It shall be in an amount of money to be determined by the Planning Board, with the advice of various Town departments and agencies, to be sufficient to cover the cost of at least furnishing, installing, connecting, and completing all of the street grading, paving, storm drainage, utilities, and other improvements for public benefit or use specified in the final plan. It shall be conditioned upon the completion of all such improvements within two years from the date of such check or bond. Completion shall be determined by the municipal officers to their satisfaction, who shall receive written certification signed by the Code Enforcement Officer, the Planning Board, and the Road Commissioner that all improvements assured by the performance guaranty have been constructed in conformance with the final plan and all applicable codes and ordinances. In addition, the developer shall furnish at his own expense the signed certification by a registered surveyor or civil engineer that all permanent bounds or monuments have been installed and are accurately in place in the locations designated in the final plan.
B. 
Inspection of required improvements.
(1) 
If the Code Enforcement Officer shall find, upon inspection of the improvements performed before the expiration date of the performance bond, that any of the required improvements have not been constructed in accordance with plans and specifications filed by the subdivider, he shall so report to the Planning Board. The municipal officers shall then notify the subdivider and, if necessary, the bonding company and take all necessary steps to preserve the Town's rights under the bond. No plan shall be approved by the Planning Board as long as the subdivider is in default on a previously approved plan.
(2) 
If at any time before or during the construction of the required improvements the subdivider demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Code Enforcement Officer that unforeseen conditions make it necessary or preferable to modify the location or design of such required improvements, the Code Enforcement Officer may, upon approval of the Planning Board, authorize modifications, provided that these modifications are within the spirit and intent of the Planning Board's approval and do not extend to the waiver or substantial alteration of the function of any improvements required by the Planning Board. The Code Enforcement Officer shall issue any authorization under this section in writing and shall transmit a copy of such authorization to the Planning Board at its next regular meeting.
C. 
Maintenance prior to acceptance of improvements. The applicant shall be required to maintain all improvements until acceptance of said improvements by the Town Meeting.
A. 
Final plan contents. The final plan shall consist of 10 copies of one or more maps or drawings, which shall be printed or reproduced in the same manner as the preliminary plan. Space shall be reserved for endorsement by all appropriate agencies. The final plan shall show:
(1) 
All of the information presented on the preliminary plan and location map and any amendments thereto suggested or required by the Planning Board.
(2) 
The name, registration number, and seal of the land surveyor, architect, or planning consultant who prepared the plan.
(3) 
Street names and lines, pedestrian ways, lanes, easements, and areas to be reserved for or dedicated to public use.
(4) 
An actual field survey of the boundary lines of the tract, giving complete descriptive data by bearings and distances, made and certified by a licensed land surveyor. The corners of the tract shall be located on the ground and marked by monuments as herein required and shall be referenced as shown on the plan.
(5) 
Sufficient data to determine readily the location, bearing, and length of every lot line and boundary line and to reproduce such lines upon the ground. Where practical, these should be tied to reference points previously established.
(6) 
The survey of the outside boundaries of the tract and the computation of the lot lines, to be performed to an accuracy of one foot in 5,000 feet. If requested by the Planning Board, the surveyor shall furnish copies of outside boundaries showing:
(a) 
Sketch of traverse lines.
(b) 
Closures.
(c) 
Adjustments.
(d) 
Coordinates.
(e) 
Computation of outside boundaries.
(7) 
Contour lines at intervals of five feet or at such intervals as the Planning Board may require, based on United States Geological Survey datum.
(8) 
Granite monuments, to be set at all outside corners of the proposed subdivision tract and checked by the Code Enforcement Officer prior to final approval.
(9) 
By proper designation, all public open space for which offers of cession are made by the subdivider and those spaces to which title is reserved by the subdivider.
(10) 
Lots and blocks within the subdivision, numbered in accordance with local practice.
B. 
Attachments to final plan. There shall be submitted to the Planning Board with the final plan:
(1) 
Written offers of cession to the Town of all public open space shown on the plan, and copies of agreements or other documents showing the manner in which spaces, title to which is reserved by the subdivider, are to be maintained.
(2) 
Written evidence that the municipal officers are satisfied with the legal sufficiency of the documents referred to in Subsection A above. Such written evidence shall not constitute an acceptance by the Town of any public open space referred to in Subsection B(1) immediately above.
(3) 
A performance bond to secure completion of all improvements required by the Planning Board and written evidence that the municipal officers are satisfied with the sufficiency of such bond.
A. 
Upon completion of the requirements stated above and notation to that effect upon the plan, it shall be deemed to have final approval and shall be properly signed by a majority of the members of the Planning Board and shall be filed by the applicant with the Planning Board Administrator, along with a filing fee as set forth from time to time by resolution of the Board of Selectmen, payable to the Town of Frye Island. The plan shall then be filed with the Cumberland County Registry of Deeds by the Planning Board Administrator or a designated representative within 15 days after receipt by the Planning Board Administrator. Any subdivision plan not so filed with the Planning Board Administrator within 90 days of the date upon which such plan is approved and signed by the Planning Board as herein provided shall become null and void, unless the particular circumstances of said applicant warrant the Planning Board to grant an extension, which shall not exceed two additional periods of 90 days.
B. 
At the time the Planning Board grants final plan approval, it may permit the plan to be divided into two or more sections, subject to any conditions the Planning Board deems necessary in order to ensure the orderly development of the plan. The applicant may file a section of the approved plan with the municipal officers and the Registry of Deeds if said section constitutes at least 10% of the total number of lots contained in the approved plan. In these circumstances, plan approval of the remaining sections of the plan shall remain in effect for three years or a period of time mutually agreed to by the municipal officers, Planning Board and the subdivider.
No changes, erasures, modifications, or revisions shall be made in any final plan after approval has been given by the Planning Board and endorsed in writing on the plan, unless the plan is first resubmitted and the Planning Board approves any modifications. In the event that a final plan is recorded without complying with this requirement, the same shall be considered null and void, and the Planning Board shall institute proceedings to have the plan stricken from the records of the municipal officers and the Registry of Deeds.
The approval by the Planning Board of a subdivision plan shall not be deemed to constitute or be evidence of any acceptance by the Town of any street, easement, or other open space shown on such plan. When a park, playground or other recreation area shall have been shown on the plan, approval of the plan shall not constitute any acceptance by the Town of such area. The Planning Board shall require the plan to be endorsed with appropriate notes to this effect. The Planning Board may also require the filing of a written agreement between the applicant and the municipal officers covering future deed and title, dedication, and provisions for the cost of grading, development, equipment, and maintenance of any such street, easement or other open space shown on such plan.
