Any owner or subdivider of any tract of land situated within the county who subdivides
such tract shall cause a plat of such subdivision, with reference to known or permanent
monuments, to be made and recorded in the office of the clerk of the circuit court.
All drawn plats proposed for recordation shall contain monuments sufficient in number
and location to establish all existing and new street and property lines. No such
plat shall be recorded unless and until it shall have been submitted, approved and
certified by the agent in accordance with the regulations set forth in this chapter.
No lot shall be sold in any such subdivision before the plat shall have been recorded.
If the agent disapproves a plat and the subdivider contends that the disapproval was
not properly based on the ordinance applicable thereto, or was arbitrary or capricious,
the subdivider may appeal to the circuit court having jurisdiction of such land and
the court shall hear and determine the case as soon as may be, provided that the subdivider's
appeal is filed with the circuit court within sixty (60) days of the written disapproval
by the agent.
