Certified Survey Map
Description: A Certified Survey Map (CSM) prepared by a registered land surveyor and application form and fee shall be submitted for requests to divide a piece of property into four (4) or fewer lots. A CSM may also be used to combine two or more parcels into one. Procedures and requirements are found in Chapter 18.06 of the zoning code.

Decision-maker(s): The Plan Commission makes a recommendation to the Village Board. The Village Board makes the final decision

Review process:
  1. Pre-submittal meeting. Before submitting an application, the applicant or the applicant's agent may meet with the Zoning Administrator to review applicable regulations and procedures, applicable sections of the Village’s comprehensive plan, and the proposed project.
  2. Submittal of application materials. The applicant submits an application and other required materials to the Zoning Administrator along with the application fee as established by the Village Board.
  3. Determination of completeness. The Zoning Administrator reviews the submitted materials to determine if the application is complete. If the application is not complete, the Zoning Administrator will notify the applicant of incomplete or missing requirements.
  4. Notice to DNR. The Zoning Administrator sends a notice to the regional office of the DNR if the amendment relates to floodplain regulations (at least 10 days before the hearing).
  5. Staff report. The Zoning Administrator prepares a staff report and provides a copy to each member of the Plan Commission and Village Board, the applicant, and posts a copy on the Village website.
  6. Plan Commission recommendation. The Plan Commission makes a recommendation to the Village Board within 60 days of the date the application is deemed complete. If the Plan Commission does not make a recommendation within the above-mentioned 60-day period, the Village Board shall then hold a period within 30 days after the expiration of the 60-day period.
  7. Village Board decision. The Village Board makes a decision based on the decision criteria to (1) approve the CSM, (2) approve the CSM with conditions, or (3) deny the CSM.
  8. Final decision document. The Zoning Administrator prepares a decision document as approved by the Village Board.
  9. Written decision sent to applicant. The Zoning Administrator sends a copy of the decision to the applicant.
