Section 8.08. REGULATION OF DIVISIONS OF LAND OTHER THAN SUBDIVISIONS.
(1) Approval Required. All divisions of land within the Village of River Hills which do not constitute ‘subdivisions’ shall be approved by the Village Board. All such divisions shall be in the form of a certified survey map which shall be referred by the Village Clerk immediately upon filing to the Village Plan Commission for review and recommendation as to whether dedications of lands to the Village are necessary for the laying out and improvement of public streets and/or the installation of sanitary and storm sewers, drainage ditches, and public utility facilities, as well as whether approval of such division of land should require compliance with subsection 8.05 (6) of this Chapter relating to the subdivision of lands. The Plan Commission shall submit its report and recommendations to the Village Board within sixty (60) days, and in the event the Plan Commission’s report and recommendations are not received within said time period, the Village Board may take action without the report.
