§ 4.02. Plat data.  


Latest version.
  • All preliminary plats shall show the following:

    (A)

    Exact length and bearing of the exterior boundaries of the proposed subdivision referenced to a corner established in U.S. Public Land Survey and the total acreage encompassed thereby.

    (B)

    Existing and proposed contours at vertical intervals of not more than two feet where the slope of the ground surface is less than ten percent, and of not more than five feet where the slope of the ground surface is ten percent or more. Elevations shall be marked on such contours based on National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929 (mean sea level).

    (C)

    Water elevations of adjoining lakes and streams at the date of the survey and approximate high and low water elevations, all referred to mean sea level (1929) datum.

    (D)

    Floodplain limits and the contour line lying a vertical distance of two feet above the elevation of the 100-year recurrence interval flood, or [when] which such data is not available, five feet above the elevation of the maximum flood of record.

    (E)

    Location, right-of-way width and names of all existing streets, alleys or other public ways, easements, railroad and utility rights-of-way and all section and quarter section lines within the exterior boundaries of the plat or immediately adjacent thereto.

    (F)

    Type, width and elevation of any existing street pavements within the exterior boundaries of the plat or immediately adjacent thereto, together with any legally established centerline elevations, all to mean sea level (1929) datum.

    (G)

    Location and names of any adjacent subdivisions, parks and cemeteries, and owners of record of abutting unplatted lands.

    (H)

    Location, size and invert elevation of any existing sanitary or storm sewers, culverts and drain pipes, the locations of manholes, catch basins, hydrants, power and telephone poles, and the location and size of any existing water and gas mains within the exterior boundaries of the plat or immediately adjacent thereto. If no sanitary or storm sewers or water mains are located on or immediately adjacent to the lands being platted, the nearest such sewers or water mains which might be extended to serve such lands shall be indicated by their direction and distance from the nearest exterior boundary of the plat and their size, and invert elevations.

    (I)

    Locations of all existing property boundary lines, structures, drives, streams and watercourses, marshes, rock outcrops, wooded areas, railroad tracks, drainage easements, natural drainage areas, landfills and other similar significant natural or man-made features within the tract being subdivided or immediately adjacent thereto.

    (J)

    Location, width and names of all proposed streets and public rights-of-way such as alleys and easements.

    (K)

    Approximate dimensions of all lots, together with proposed lot and block numbers.

    (L)

    Location and approximate dimensions and size of any sites to be reserved or dedicated for parks, playgrounds, drainageways or other public use or which are to be used for group housing, shopping centers, church sites or other private uses not requiring platting.

    (M)

    Approximate radii of all curves.

    (N)

    Existing zoning on and adjacent to the proposed subdivision.

    (O)

    Any proposed lake and stream access with a small drawing clearly indicating the location of the proposed subdivision in relation to the access.

    (P)

    Any proposed lake and stream improvement or relocation.

    (Q)

    Soil type, slope, and boundaries as shown on the detailed operational soil survey maps prepared by the U.S. Soil Conservation Service.

    (R)

    Location of soil boring tests, where required by Wis. Admin. Code § H65.06(2) [COMM. § 85.06], made to a depth of six feet, unless bedrock is at a lesser depth. The number of such tests shall be adequate to portray the character of the soil and the depths of bedrock and groundwater from the natural undisturbed surface. To accomplish this purpose, a minimum of one test per three acres shall be made initially. The results of such tests shall be submitted along with the preliminary plat.

    (S)

    Location of soil percolation tests where required by Wis. Admin. Code § H65.06(3) [COMM. § 85.06], conducted in accordance with Wis. Admin. Code § H65.07(4) [Comm. § 85.06], taken at the location and depth in which soil absorption waste disposal systems are to be installed. The number of such tests initially made shall not be less than one test per three acres, or one test per lot, whichever is greater. The results of such tests shall be submitted along with the preliminary plat. Where mound systems are proposed, information required by the Wisconsin Administrative Code shall be submitted and may be required to be shown on the plat.

    (T)

    Additional information as requested by the plan commission or village board to verify ownership, clarify questions raised during the approval procedure, address concerns raised by neighbors or members of the plan commission or village board, and any other information the plan commission or village board deems necessary to reach a decision on the preliminary plat. Failure to provide the requested additional information may be grounds for denial of the preliminary plat.
