[CC 1983 §43.100]
In order to make the most of opportunities related to the subdivision and to conserve time, effort and expense, the owner or subdivider should consult with the Planning Commission, the City Engineer and other public officials prior to the preparation of the preliminary plat for the subdivision. The Comprehensive Plan of the City should be reviewed to determine how the preliminary plat will fit into the Comprehensive Plan. Requirements for major and minor streets; school and recreation sites; community facilities; shopping centers; sanitation, water supply and drainage; and the relationship to other developments, existing and proposed, in the vicinity should be determined in advance of the preparation of the preliminary plat.
