Subdivision
Plat Review
Description:
The Municipal Code of Quincy, §13.701 requires all plats, plans,
subdivision, or re-subdivision of land within the corporate limits of
the city of Quincy and within the jurisdictional area 1 1/2 miles beyond
the corporate limits to be recorded in the Office of the Adams County
Recorder of Deeds. In order to assure plats are prepared in accordance
with the Municipal Code, the City Plan Commission and City Council shall
review all plats.
Requirements:
A
checklist
of information required on a plat is available from the City Engineering
Department. A plat (subdivision map) is required for any division of
property into two or more lots or parcels where any one lot will be five
acres or less in area; or for the dedication of a road, highway or
street through a tract of land, or any easement of access for any land
located within the limits of the city of Quincy or within the area 1 1/2
miles beyond the corporate limits.
Preliminary Plan Review:
This process begins by submitting the preliminary plans to the
Department of Planning and Development. A preliminary plan ensures that
lot division, easements, streets, right of way, public utilities, and
other required information (Section 13.703) complies with the
Subdivision and Zoning ordinance requirements.
Public Hearing and
Notice:
The Quincy Plan Commission will conduct a public hearing on each
preliminary plat. A public notice of the hearing will be published in
the newspaper at least 15 days before the hearing.
Final Plat:
In order for the final plat to be recorded in the Office of the Adams
County Recorder of Deeds, the plat must have both Plan Commission and
City Council approval and comply with the final plat provisions listed
in Section 13.704 of the Subdivision Ordinance.
Plat Review
Fee:
$200.00 plat review
fee, plus $15 per lot paid to the city at the time subdivision is
filed.
