Subdivision - Preliminary Plat
Description A subdivision plat is used to create more than six parcels. Subdivision plats are reviewed in two steps: preliminary and final. A preliminary subdivision plat shows the proposed layout of the lots and any roads. If a preliminary plat is approved, the final plat is prepared consistent with all requirements in the City's land division regulations and state law.

Decisionmakers Plan Commission makes a recommendation and the Common Council makes the final decision

Appeals The Common Council's decision can be appealed to the circuit court.

Notes

1. In order for an application to be heard on a given meeting date, the application (including forms, fees, plans, reports, etc.) must be submitted AND deemed complete by City staff on or before the corresponding submittal date. Because of that, you may want to submit your application before the submittal date. That way, we may be able to let you know if anything is missing and you'll have some time to perhaps get it done before the deadline.

2. Meeting dates and their corresponding submittal dates are subject to change.

About Reviewers
The following are involved in the review of this type of application.

The Common Council is the governing body of the City of Hartford and is responsible for making decisions on local policies, budgets, and ordinances. The council also reviews certain types of development projects. The council consists of 7 members who are elected to two-year, overlapping terms.

The Plan Commission is a 7-member body established by the Common Council to review certain development projects and act on other matters. Depending on the type of the development proposal, the commission may be advisory to the Common Council or have the authority to make the final decision.

Planning staff provides technical support to the Common Council, Plan Commission, Zoning Board of Appeals, developers, neighbors, and other interested parties to facilitate the development review process.
