Section V (New)--Specifications for Plat Drawings The Planning $oard recommended approval of the text amendments as presented at the November 28, 1988 public hearing. The Administration recommends approval of the proposed amendments per the Planning $oard's recommendation with one exception, the change in the method of approval of "minor" subdivisions as proposed in the revision to Section III-C. The Administration recommends that the minor subdivision approval process remain as is until the Subdivision Regulations are amended to provide consistency in the design standards applicable to major and minor subdivisions. Such consistency would insure that the minor subdivision process is not used to avoid compliance with design standards. It would also provide equity in the approval process. Geoffrey Gledhill asked that Section V be revised to state that the applicant be responsible for recording in the presence of and with the advice and consent of the Planning Staff. Motion was made by Commissioner Willhoit, seconded by Commissioner Marshall to approve the Administration's recommendation as amended by the County Attorney.
