SUBDIVISION SUBMISSION CHECKLIST
(Must be completed when filing Preliminary, Combined, or Final Subdivision)
The subdivider of a major subdivision may choose between two review procedures. The subdivider may elect

a final plat containing all of the information required in both plats under the two-step procedure.
Plats submitted and approved under these regulations must have a continuous plat boundary. Plats which
have separated parts or lots, or plats having a distance separating lots of greater than two hundred (200) feet
