Land that lies within the one hundred-year floodplain may be subdivided only if all proposed developments are in compliance with Article III, §10-27 (Flood Damage Prevention) of the 1999 Montgomery County Zoning Ordinance. A note describing the flood hazard must be included on the final plat.
(a) Every final plat shall contain the following statements
No change, erasure or revision shall be made on any final plat or on accompanying data sheets after approval of the agent has been endorsed in writing on the plat or sheets, unless authorization for such changes has been granted in writing by the agent.
There shall be a charge for the examination and approval or disapproval of every plat reviewed. At the time of filing the preliminary plat, the subdivider shall deposit with the agent checks payable to the treasurer of the county in the amount set from time to time by resolution of the board of supervisors.
The agent may approve the relocation or vacation of boundary lines of any lot or parcel of land in a properly recorded plat of subdivision or resubdivision, provided such action does not involve the relocation or alteration of streets, alley, easements for public passage or other public areas, and provided further that no easement or utility rights-of-way shall be relocated or altered without the express consent of all persons holding any interest therein.
The agent shall not use this provision to increase the total number of lots in the subdivision or resubdivision above the number originally approved under the regulations and standards of this article.
