(1) Unless a division of land is exempt from the plat requirements of this chapter, whenever any land
is subdivided, the owner of that land shall provide an accurate plat that sets forth and describes: (a) all the parcels divided, by their boundaries, course, and extent, and whether they are intended
for streets or other public uses; and (b) the lot or unit reference, the block or building reference, the road or site address, the road
name or coordinate address, the acreage or square footage for all parcels, units, or lots, and the length and width of the blocks and lots intended for sale. (2) The owner of the land shall acknowledge the plat before an officer authorized by law to acknowledge conveyances of real estate. (3) The surveyor making the plat shall certify the plat.
(4) The Community Development Department may approve the plat as provided in this chapter. Before the Community Development Department may approve a plat, the owner shall submit a tax clearance indicating that all taxes, interest, and penalties on the land have been paid.
