[Amended 6-15-1988 by Ord. No. 1-1988]
The provisions of this article shall apply only upon a finding of the Planning Board that the proposed development qualifies as a minor subdivision, as that term is defined in § 163-15 of this chapter, and that no useful purpose would be served by requiring the filing of a preliminary plan or plat and the holding of a public hearing thereon.
[Amended 6-15-1988 by Ord. No. 1-1988]
Applications for minor subdivision approval shall be submitted to the Land Use Administrator in such number of duplicate copies as he may from time to time require and shall be accompanied by a nonrefundable application fee, as established pursuant to Part 1, Article III, of this chapter, to help defray administrative costs. The application shall be in the form required by Article XXIII of this chapter for final site plan/subdivision plat approval.
An application for minor subdivision approval shall be processed in the same manner as provided for final plans and plats in Article XXIII of this chapter, except that, with respect to § 163-120, approval of a minor subdivision shall expire 190 days from the date of final approval unless within such period a plat in conformity with such approval and the provisions of the Map Filing Law, P.L. 1960, c. 141 (N.J.S.A. 46:23-9.9 et seq.), is filed by the applicant with the Atlantic County Recording Officer, the City Engineer and the Municipal Tax Assessor. Any such plat accepted for such filing shall have been signed by the Chairman and Secretary of the Atlantic City Planning Board and referred to the Atlantic County Planning Board pursuant to § 163-199B of this chapter. Filing and recording of minor subdivisions by deed shall not be permitted.
A. 
Approval of a minor subdivision plat shall be deemed to be final approval of the subdivision, subject to any condition imposed pursuant to § 163-125 above.
B. 
Unless an applicant shall fail to file an approved minor subdivision plan as required by § 163-125 above or shall in any other manner fail to comply with any condition or provision of this chapter or any approval granted pursuant to it, an approved minor subdivision plat shall not be changed or modified without the consent of the applicant for a period of two years following such approval.
