All applications, maps, plans, data, specifications and documents pertaining to a proposed plan of subdivision or resubdivision shall be submitted to the Commission at the office of the Commission in the Orange Town Hall. These subdivision items are considered received on the day of the next regular meeting of the Commission immediately following the day of submission at the office of the Commission, or 35 days after such submission, whichever is sooner. (Note: While §
382-12 provides that applications may be submitted as late as the day before a regular meeting, the Commission strongly recommends that submission be made at least 10 days prior to a regular meeting. Early submission will allow advance review of the proposal and will help expedite the work of the Commission.) The Commission may at its discretion receive at a meeting any supplementary maps, plans, data, specifications or documents in support of an application previously received. [Sec. 8-26d(c), CGS] If the time parameters in this section shall be at variance with Connecticut General Statutes, as may be amended from time to time, the provisions of state statute shall be controlling.
In order to make application for Commission approval of a plan of subdivision
or resubdivision, the following shall be submitted to the Commission by the
applicant:
A. Application and notice to adjacent owners: Written application

or the applicant's lawful agent. Six copies of the application shall
be submitted. If the applicant is not the owner of the land to be subdivided,
the application form shall also be signed by the owner or the owner's
lawful agent. In addition, the application form shall also be signed by the
land surveyor for the plan of subdivision or resubdivision acknowledging the
submission. If the record title to land to be subdivided is held by a trustee
of an undisclosed trust, the applicant shall file with the application a sworn
statement disclosing the name of the equitable owner of the land or the beneficiary
of the trust. (Secs. 8-7c and 8-26, CGS) The applicant shall provide evidence

as follows:
A. Submission review: The Commission, in consultation with its agents, shall determine whether or not the application submitted under §
382-13 is complete. Failure to submit a complete application is cause for disapproval of the application under §

V of these Regulations, the applicant may request in writing a determination by the Commission that certain map and plan requirements of §
382-13 and Schedules A and B are not necessary in order to make a reasonable decision on the application and need not be submitted or may be deferred for subsequent submission and consideration.

the Commission may, in order to make a reasonable decision on the application,
require the submission of additional information by the applicant, such as
but not limited to the following:
(1) Grading plan: In the event that the special site grading

and so arranged and of such width as to provide an adequate and convenient
system for present prospective traffic needs;
(f) That, in developing the plan of subdivision, including
lots, streets and other features, consideration has been given to the use
on each lot of passive solar energy techniques; and

C. Review by others: Plans of subdivision or resubdivision
will be reviewed by other agencies as follows:
(1) Town Engineer/Director of Public Works: Each plan submission
shall be referred by the Commission or its agent to the Town Engineer/Director
of Public Works for review, and the Commission will expect a written report
concerning technical features of the plan and compliance with these Regulations

the plan is expected, within 30 days, to report to the Commission and the
applicant its findings on the intermunicipal aspects of the proposed subdivision,
including street layout, storm drainage, sewer and water matters and such
other matters as it deems appropriate. If such report is not submitted within
30 days after transmittal, it is presumed the agency does not disapprove of
the plan. The report of the agency is purely advisory. (Sec. 8-26b, CGS)
(3) Wetlands Commission: The Commission will expect a report or decision on the wetlands and water courses aspects of the plan of subdivision by the Orange Inland Wetlands and Water Courses Commission prior to action under §
382-15.

the purpose of reviewing the sufficiency, completeness and content of the
application and plan of subdivision or resubdivision.
(8) All maps circulated for municipal department review and
signatures shall be revised and dated to reflect the conditions of Inland
Wetland approvals. If revisions are made to any maps subsequent to the review
of municipal departments, signoffs must again be obtained for the revised
documents. In order to allow full review by Town staff, all maps to be considered
for the first time at a Commission meeting shall be submitted to the Zoning
Administrator at least seven days prior to the day of the meeting. Unless
waived by the Commission, revisions to maps to be considered at subsequent
meetings shall be submitted at least five days prior to the meeting.
[Added 2-17-2004]

If the Commission has requested the applicant to submit additional information, such as under §
