§ 32-9. Outlots.  


Latest version.
  • (a)

    It is the policy of the city to allow outlots on plats and subdivisions presented to the city for approval pursuant to this chapter, but only for the purpose of simplifying the descriptions of parcels of land that:

    (1)

    Would otherwise be excepted from the platted area; or

    (2)

    Are to be conveyed or dedicated to the city or other public body.

    (b)

    Therefore, any outlots shown on a plat or subdivision approved by the council shall not be, nor deemed to be, lots or parcels, as defined in chapter 36, nor shall any outlots be developed by the erection or placing of improvements on the outlots, unless first replatted into lots and blocks pursuant to this chapter and the applicable provisions of state law. Except, however, improvements may be erected or placed by the city or other public body upon outlots conveyed or dedicated to it.
