§ 7. APPROVAL OF RECORD SUBDIVISION PLAN  


Latest version.
  • (a)

    Upon the submission of the Record Subdivision Plan to the Board for final approval, said Board shall determine whether such plan corresponds substantially with the approved Preliminary Plan and meets all the requirements of these regulations. If the Board shall approve such Record Subdivision Plan, the act of such approval and the date thereof shall be noted on said Plan over the signature of the City Clerk. Said Record Subdivision Plan shall within thirty (30) days thereafter be filed for record in the office of the Town Clerk of Shelton. The fee for the filing of said map shall be paid by the applicant.

    (b)

    No plan of a subdivision of land laid out wholly or partly within the limits of the City of Shelton shall be filed or recorded in the office of the Town Clerk of Shelton until the Board except as otherwise provided by statute shall have approved such plan and the fact of such approval is endorsed thereon as provided in the foregoing.

    The provision of this section shall not apply to maps made by a licensed land surveyor for sole purpose of establishing boundaries of property already of record or where the same is merely intended as an outline survey showing only the exterior boundaries of such unmapped land as has not been divided.

    The approval of filing for record of any Record Subdivision Plan shall not be deemed to constitute or to be evidenced by any acceptance by the public of any street or other open public space shown on such plan or map. Such acceptance shall be by formal resolution adopted by the Board, which resolution shall set forth the fact of such acceptance for public purposes, the width and approximate length of the streets, accepted together with the designation of the names by which such street shall thereafter be known.

    (c)

    If the application and plan are disapproved, the Board shall return without endorsement the original plan as submitted by the applicant together with a statement of its reasons for such disapproval. One (1) print of said plan shall be retained for the records of the city.
