trees be planted inside the property lines where they
are less subject to injury, decrease the chance of motor

to be used are to be submitted for review and approval
by the Commission and City Council.

MEMORANDUM
October 12, 1979
TO: City Council
FROM: Planning Departmen
RE:
Subdivision Regulations Ordinance Amendment
Tuesday, October 16th, is the scheduled public hearing for the
proposed amendment to the Subdivision Regulations, requiring ad-
ditional information to be submitted with final plats. The amend-
ment will require the plattor to submit the square footage and co-
ordinates for each lot in the plat. This information is used by
the Public Works and Planning Departments in the processing of
building permits and variance applications. The Planning Com-
mission recommended (4 -- 0) this amendment to correct an omission
in the current Subdivision Regulations. This amendment merely
makes formal the provision of information that plattors have al-
ready been doing for some time.
A copy of the Planning Commission minutes pertaining to this
recommendation is attached for your information.
(If the Council decides to approve this amendment, it could cite
the Planning Commission reasons as its findings of fact.)

Pt-9-26-79 SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS AMENDMENT. Amendment to
the Subdivision Regulations (Ordinance No..1631)
requiring additional data for approval of final .
plats.
Mr. Carr noted that this proposed amendment was to correct
an item inadvertantly omitted last year; it is strictly a
bookkeeping measure and not a substantive change. The
public hearing was opened.
Upon the request of Florence Casady, Mr. Carr read the
pertinent paragraph including the proposed language to
be incorporated into the Subdivision Regulations. No
further comments were received, and the public hearing
was closed.
Mr. Downie moved to recommend amendment of the Subdivision
Regulations to have the first paragraph of the Required
Data for Approval of Final Plat division of Section 6,
Page 14, to read as follows:
The final plat shall be an eighteen (18) inch by
twenty -two (22) inch permanent reproducible, and
shall be at a scale of not less than two hundred
(200) feet to one (1) inch. For large subdivisions,
the plat may be on several sheets,.accompanied by
an index sheet showing the entire subdivision.
The final plat shall be accompanied by a report
containing accurate square footage and dimensions
of each lot and block and the co- ordinates of each
monument; a title report; and shall include a war-
ranty that all assessments in favor of the City
have been paid.
As reasons for the recommendation, Mr. Downie cited that
it is in the best interests of the community, the informa-
tion is necessary for complete processing of subdivisions,
and the information is needed in the processing of build-
ing permits and variance applications. Mr. Bennett seconded
the motion, which passed, 4 -0.
