(1) When a developer or group of developers have in their control an area of land which they wish to plat, but of such a large size that the sale of a majority of the lots in the area would take more than a year, they may cause to be prepared a preliminary plat for the entire area of development;

(2) On such preliminary plat, development divisions may be designated;

(3) Upon approval of the preliminary plat, the developer may cause to be prepared a final plat for one or more development divisions, provided the order of development allows for the provision of utilities and streets with proper alignment with existing and future utilities and streets;

(4) Each development division shall be considered as a final plat and provisions of these regulations shall be complied with for such development division. [Ord. 4432 § 7, 2019; Ord. 3398 § 2, 1999; Code 1970 § 26.24.110. Formerly 21.25.110.]
