If the DRC determines that the final plat is not in conformity with this title or other applicable ordinances, it may disapprove the final plat specifying the reasons for such disapproval. No final plat shall have any force or effect unless the same has been approved by the DRC, and signed by the city engineer, the city attorney, and the mayor. C. The receipt of a signed copy of the approved preliminary plat shall authorize the applicant to proceed with the preparation of the final plat and construction documents. 1. Upon the approval of the DRC, with or without modification, the final plat may then be recorded in the office of the county recorder. 2. The plat shall be recorded no more than one year after the date of approval unless an extension is granted by the city council. 3.
