Whenever a copy of such plan, plot or description is filed with said Village Planning Commission as provided in § 56-4 of this chapter, said Commission shall, within 30 days, report to the Board of Trustees its recommendations in relation thereto, and the Board of Trustees shall then consider the same and direct the Village Planning Commission either to certify its approval thereof or to refuse to approve of the same, and said Commission shall act at once in accordance with such directions of the Board of Trustees.
