LUDMO 6-11 Amendments And Vacations

A. A lot owner may file with the San Juan County Planning & Building Department an application for subdivision amendment with a plat meeting the requirements set forth in CLUDMA Chapter 6 and those sections of this LUDMO applicable to initial subdivision plat approvals. 1. A proposed subdivision amendment shall be named to correlate with the original subdivision and the sequentially numbered amendment. Each new amendment to the original approved subdivision plat shall increase by an increment of one. Below the subdivision name and number, in parenthesis, shall be listed the affected lots and the resultant lots or changes. 2. The amended plat shall include the following signature blocks: San Juan County Planning Administrator, San Juan County Health Department, San Juan County Recorder, San Juan County Attorney, San Juan County Surveyor, consents of private easement owners, and the subdivision property owner’s and mortgagee's certificate of dedication of public land, rights of way, and easements, with space for notarization in the same form as required above for all other final subdivision plats. 3. The amended plat shall include signature blocks for each property owner within the plat. B. The application petition shall also include proof of written notice to: 1. The owners of record of lots within the plat affected by the plat revision; 2. Adjoining owners; and 3. If the subdivision includes one, the owners’ association. C. Upon determining that the application is complete, including the payment of required fee, and does not seek to amend or vacate a public street or easement, the Planning Administrator shall: 1. Provide notice to affected entities, if required; and 2. Treat the application as one for an initial subdivision and follow that process. D. If the proposed amended plat seeks to amend or vacate a public street or easement, the process for that amendment or vacation shall be that provided in CLUDMA. E. The Board of County Commissioners may vacate all or a portion of a subdivision plat by passing and recording an ordinance. F. The amended plat shall become effective upon recording. The Planning Administrator shall follow the same procedure for recording as that for recording the initial plat and the same requirements and limitations apply.
