PURPOSE, AUTHORITY AND JURISDICTION
A.
Title
-
This document shall be known as the "Subdivision Regu-
lations of the Salina City Planning Commission of Salina,
I
Kansas", and may be cited as such,
I
Purpose
B.
The control of land subdivision is an integral part of
I
orderly community development.
Once land has been
I
divided into streets, lots, and blocks, and publicly
recorded, the correction of defects in this division
I
I
is difficult and costly.
The purpose of this document
is to set forth rules and regulations for the division
of real property so that each subdivision shall be
I
properly coordinated with the overall city street,
utility, and development plans.
These requirements
I
I
shall be considered to be minimum standards in their
interpretation and application.
They are designed to
provide for a permanently wholesome community environ-
I
ment, efficient and adequate municipal services, safe
streets, and a sound and balanced development of the
I
area.

SECTION VII
VARIAN::ES AND IMPLEMENTATION
A.
Where the City Planning Commission finds that extra-
ordinary hardships may result from strict compliance
with these regulations, it may vary the regulations so
that substantial justice may be done and the public
interest secured; provided that such variation will not
have the effect of nullifying the intent and purpose of
the City Plan or these regulations.
In granting variances
and modifications, the City Planning Commission may
require such conditions as will, in its judgement,
secure substantially the objectives of the standards or
requirements so varied or modified.
B.
These regulations shall become effective upon their
final approval by the City Commission of the City of
Salina, Kansas.
All plats under consideration for
approval by the City Planning Commission at the time
that these regulations become effective shall be required
to conform to these regulations to the extent as deter-
mined by the City Planning Commission.
All plats submitted
for approval after these regulations become effective
shall conform to all sections of these regulations.
