II. Procedure for Subdivision Plat Approval. (Opening paragraph)
Two steps are involved in approval by the Planning Commission of a new subdivision proposal: (1)
preparation and approval of thel'Pre3dmdnary Plat; and (2) preparation and approval of the final plat.
(Application forms for plat approvals are available in the offices of the Planning Commission or the
Building Inspector.)
ont. If a division of land results in a determination that it is not a subdivision (under Artidle I, D-141
rd. No. Definitions, and under Article V, A., Variances) so that formal plat approval procedure provided in
1340 this Article is not necessary, the Planning Commission may require the property owner to file withthe
County Recorder an informal plat of the area, on the face of which the Planning Commission Chairman
and/or S6cretary'shall sign the following statement: "Informal plat approved thid (date)
in accordance with Article V, A., Variance, of Fayetteville City Ordinance No. 1245, as amended."
(Signature of Chairman or Secretary)

b. Existing conditions
3) Names of adjacent subdivisionsand owners of adjacent parcels of unsubdivided land, aAd evidence that

Within ten(10) days after review by the Planning Commission, the sub -divider shall'be notified in
writing whether the Preliminary Plat is approved. In case the Plat is not approved, the reasons for
disapproval shall be given in writing. Failure of the Planning Commission to act on the Preliminary
Plat within sixty (60) days from the date of application submission shall be deemed approval of the
Preliminary Plat. Approval of the Preliminary Plat, however, does not constitute acceptance of the
subdivision. Rather, it is authorization for the subdivider to proceed with the installation of
improvements as specified in Article IV, Improvements.
If the subdivider desires to presently develop only a portion of the total area intended'.for development
the Planning Commission shall require preliminary plat approval for the entire area intended for
development to insure that the purpose and intent of these regulations are complied with, and a
final plat shall be required only for the portion of the total area intended for present development,
with additional Final Plat or Plats to be required for other portions or the rest of the area as
developed.
However, upon the approval of the preliminary plat, and pending approval of the Final Plat even for the
areas being presently developed, the Planning Commission may authorize the issuance of building
permits for such lots (to be determined by the Planning Commission) shown on the approved streets meet
the minimum street width requirements of the City, or provided the subdivider will give written
assurance to the Planning Commission that he will proceed with due diligence with the submission of
his Final Plat. (See Article II, B-6, and Article IV, G)

Pursuant to Section 5c, Arkansas Planning Law, Act 186 of 1957, "the County Recorder shall not accept
any plat for record without the approval of the Planning Commission". Following approval by the Plan
Co*nission, and acceptance by the City Council, if the f3roperty is located within the City, the

County Recorder by the City Clerk, at the subdivider's expense.
