[Amended at time of adoption of Code (see Ch. 1, General Provisions, Art. II)]
A final plat prepared by a professional land surveyor shall be required for all subdivisions. It shall comply in all respects with the requirements of Chapter 236, Wisconsin Statutes.
The plat shall show correctly on its face, in addition to the information required by Chapter 236, Wisconsin Statutes, and §§ 288-24 and 288-25, and Articles VII and VIII of this chapter, the following:
A. 
Exact length and bearing of the center line of all streets.
B. 
Exact street width along the line of any obliquely intersecting street.
C. 
Railroad rights-of-way within and abutting the plat.
D. 
Setbacks or building lines greater than those required by the municipal ordinances, if deemed necessary by the Plan Commission or governing body.
E. 
Utility and/or drainage easements.
F. 
All lands reserved for future public acquisition or reserved for the common use of property owners within the plat.
G. 
Special restrictions required by the Plan Commission or governing body relating to access control along public ways, delineation of floodland limits or to the provision of planting strips.
H. 
Blocks, if designated, shall be consecutively numbered or lettered in alphabetical order. The blocks in numbered additions to subdivisions bearing the same name shall be numbered or lettered consecutively through the several additions. The exact length and bearing of the boundary lines of all blocks shall be shown.
I. 
Lots in each block shall be consecutively numbered. Outlots, if approved, shall be numbered within each block. The square footage of each lot and outlot shall be shown on the plat and in addition thereto the plat shall show the exact acreage for each lot or outlot to the nearest 1/100 acre, such indicator to be located within the boundary of each lot or outlot on the plat.
J. 
Meander lines by distance and bearings shall be shown with the distance between the point of intersection of such meander lines with lot lines and ordinary high water mark also shown.
K. 
Septic systems and driveways with preplanned location shall be shown on the plat.
L. 
Lots to be served by joint wells, along with the easements providing for said service, shall be shown on the plat. A joint well agreement shall be recorded.
[Amended at time of adoption of Code (see Ch. 1, General Provisions, Art. II)]
The Municipal Engineer shall examine all final plats within the municipality and may make, or cause to be made by a professional land surveyor under the supervision or direction of the Municipal Engineer, field checks for the accuracy and closure of survey, the proper kind and location of monuments and the legibility and completeness of the drawing. In addition:
A. 
Maximum error of closure before adjustment of the survey of the exterior boundaries of the subdivision shall not exceed, in horizontal distance or position, the ratio of one part in 10,000, or in azimuth, four seconds of arc per interior angle. If field measurements exceed this maximum, new field measurements shall be made until a satisfactory closure is obtained. When a satisfactory closure of the field measurements has been obtained, the survey of the exterior boundary shall be adjusted to form a closed geometric figure.
B. 
All street, block and lot dimensions shall be computed as closed geometric figures based upon the control provided by the closed exterior boundary survey. If field checks disclose an error for any interior line of the plat greater than the ratio of one part in 5,000, or an error in measured angle greater than one minute of arc for any angle where the shorter side forming the angle is 300 feet or longer, necessary corrections shall be made. Where the shorter side of a measured angle is less than 300 feet in length, the error shall not exceed the value of one minute multiplied by the quotient of 300 divided by the length of the shorter side; however, such error shall not in any case exceed five minutes of arc.
C. 
The governing body shall receive the results of the Municipal Engineer's examination prior to approving the final plat.
Where the plat is located within a U.S. Public Land Survey quarter section, the corners of which have been relocated, monumented and coordinated by the municipality, Waukesha County or the Southeastern Wisconsin Regional Planning Commission, the plat shall be tied directly to one or more of the section or quarter corners so relocated, monumented and coordinated. The exact grid bearing and distance of such tie shall be determined by field measurements, and the material and Wisconsin state plane coordinates of the monument marking the relocated section or quarter corner to which the plat is tied shall be indicated on the plat. All distances and bearings shall be referenced to the Wisconsin Coordinate System, South Zone, and adjusted to the municipality's control survey.
All final plats shall provide all the certificates required by Chapter 236, Wisconsin Statutes, and, in addition, the surveyor shall certify that he has fully complied with all the provisions of this chapter.
[Amended at time of adoption of Code (see Ch. 1, General Provisions, Art. II)]
The final plat shall only be recorded with the County Register of Deeds after the certificates of the Wisconsin Department of Administration, of the governing body, of the surveyor, and those certificates required by Chapter 236, Wisconsin Statutes, are placed on the face of the plat. The plat shall be recorded within 12 months of its last approval by the governing body. Failure to record said final plat within 12 months of the date of the last required approval or within 36 months of the date of the first approval may require the subdivider to have to recommence the entire procedure in this chapter at the option of the governing body.
An identical reproducible copy (on stable drafting film at least four mils thick) along with the recording data shall be placed on file with the Municipal Engineer.
The Municipal Engineer shall place upon a copy of the final plat on each lot shown on said plat the correct legal house number assigned to that lot in conformity with the grid system in effect in Waukesha County and any local ordinances.
