§ 33-2.33. Plat corrections.

(a)

Purpose and applicability. The following short form approval process may be used to correct a plat error, including the correction of any other type of formal, non-substantive, clerical error, or omission by the parish council; such errors and omissions may include, but are not limited to: lot numbers, acreage, street names, and identification of adjacent recorded plats.

(b)

Application and procedure. This application, with the information required in the appendix of this UDC, shall be filed with the planning director, who shall review and forward the application to the LURTC for findings and recommendations. Lack of findings and recommendations from LURTC within five (5) days shall be construed as no objection to approval.

(c)

Review criteria. Each of the following criteria shall be satisfied prior to approval of the plat correction:

(1)

All resultant parcels shall comply with the minimum standards required by this UDC;

(2)

No reduction in street right-of-way width or reduction of servitude width shall occur; and

(3)

The action shall not adversely affect the character of the previously recorded plat or the character of the area.

(d)

Decision-maker . The planning director shall approve, conditionally approve, or deny all applications for plat corrections or adjustments after receiving and considering the LURTC findings and recommendations. The planning director shall be the final decision-maker except that the applicant may appeal the decision of the planning director to the parish council through the major subdivision process. If the plat correction is not recorded within six (6) months of application submittal, the application shall be deemed null and void.
