A final plat prepared by a registered land surveyor shall be required for all subdivisions. It shall comply in all respects with the requirements of § 236.20 of the Wisconsin Statutes.
The plat shall show correctly on its face, in addition to the information required by § 236.20 of the Wisconsin Statutes, the following:
A. 
Exact length and bearing of the center line of all streets;
B. 
Exact street width along the line of any obliquely intersecting streets;
C. 
Railroad rights-of-way within and abutting the plat;
D. 
Setbacks or building lines required by the Village Plan Commission in accordance with the guidelines set forth in § 176-54 of this chapter;
E. 
Utility and/or drainage easements;
F. 
All lands reserved for future public acquisition or reserved for the common use of property owners within the plat; and
G. 
Special restrictions required by the Village Plan Commission relating to access control along public ways or to the provision of planting strips.
The Village Plan Commission may require that deed restrictions be filed with the final plat and shall be recorded with the approved plat.
The Village Engineer shall examine all final plats within the Village and may make, or cause to be made by a registered land surveyor under the supervision or direction of the Village Engineer, field checks for the accuracy and closure of survey, the proper kind and location of monuments and the legibility and completeness of the drawing. In addition:
A. 
Maximum error of closure before adjustment of the survey of the exterior boundaries of the subdivision shall not exceed, in horizontal distance or position, the ratio of one part in 10,000, nor in azimuth, of four seconds of arc per interior angle. If field measurements exceed this maximum, new field measurements shall be made until a satisfactory closure is obtained. When a satisfactory closure of the field measurements has been obtained, the survey of the exterior boundary shall be adjusted to form a closed geometric figure.
B. 
All street, block and lot dimensions shall be computed as closed geometric figures based upon the control provided by the closed exterior boundary survey. If field checks disclose an error for any interior line of the plat greater than the ratio of one part in 5,000 or an error in measured angle greater than one minute of arc for any angle where the shorter side forming the angle is 300 feet or longer, necessary corrections shall be made. Where the shorter side of a measured angle is less than 300 feet in length, the error shall not exceed the value of one minute multiplied by the quotient of 300 divided by the length of the shorter side; however, such error shall not in any case exceed five minutes of arc.
C. 
Where the plat is located within a U. S. Public Land Survey quarter-section, the corners of which have been relocated, monumented and coordinated by the Village of Saukville, Ozaukee County or the Southeastern Wisconsin Regional Planning Commission, the tie required by § 236.20(3)(b) of the Wisconsin Statutes shall be expressed in terms of grid bearing and distance; and the material and Wisconsin state plane coordinates of the monument marking the relocated section or quarter corner to which the plat is tied shall be indicated on the plat. The grid bearing and distance of the tie shall be determined by a closed survey meeting the error of closure herein specified for the survey of the exterior boundaries of the subdivision.
D. 
The Village Board shall receive the results of the Village Engineer’s examination prior to approving the final plat.
All final plats shall meet all the surveying and monumenting requirements of § 236.15 of the Wisconsin Statutes.
Where the plat is located within a U. S. Public Land Survey quarter-section, the corners of which have been relocated, monumented and coordinated by the Village of Saukville, Ozaukee County or the Southeastern Wisconsin Regional Planning Commission, the plat shall be tied directly to one of the section or quarter corners so relocated, monumented and coordinated. The exact grid bearing and distance of such tie shall be determined by field measurements, and the material and Wisconsin state plane coordinates of the monument marking the relocated section or quarter corner to which the plat is tied shall be indicated on the plat. All distances and bearings shall be referenced to the Wisconsin coordinate system, south zone, and adjusted to the Village’s control survey.
All final plats shall provide all the certificates required by § 236.21 of the Wisconsin Statutes; and, in addition, the surveyor shall certify that he has fully complied with all the provisions of this chapter.
The final plat shall only be recorded with the county Register of Deeds after the certificates of the Wisconsin Department of Administration, of the Village Board, of the surveyor, and those certificates required by § 236.21 of the Wisconsin Statutes are placed on the face of the plat. The plat shall be recorded by the Village Administrator within six months of its approval by the Village Board.
