Whenever any subdivision of land is proposed,
before any offer or contract is made to sell any part or the entire
subdivision and before any permit for the erection of a structure
in a subdivision shall be granted, the subdivider shall apply, in
writing, for approval of the proposed subdivision in accordance with
the following procedure.
Before the subdivision of land, the owner or his representative who is authorized, in writing, by the owner shall meet with the Planning Board or its representative to express general intent to subdivide and to determine sketch plan requirements. The subdivider may request the Planning Board to accept the subdivision for consideration as a minor subdivision, as defined herein, and, if so accepted, the subdivider may make a final subdivision plat submission under §
131-8 without the need to submit a sketch plan and preliminary plan. The Planning Board shall accept the subdivision as a minor subdivision when the Board determines that sufficient information will be provided under final subdivision plat submission procedures to make a reasonable decision on the application.
For a resubdivision, the same procedure, rules
and regulations apply as for a subdivision.
