Final plat approval and recordation process

A. Upon final approval of improvements according to or upon entry into an agreement according to section 18.20.180 , subdivider may apply for approval of the final plat for recordation. B. If the director disapproves the plat, the grounds for disapproval shall be filed in the records of the department, and a copy forwarded to the subdivider. Upon final approval, the director shall stamp three copies of the final plat, as follows: "Subdivision Number _______ Approved For Recordation with the Bureau of Conveyances and Department of Taxation, State of Hawaii." C. Such approval shall bear the signature of the director. The approval of the final plat by the director shall not be deemed to constitute or effect an acceptance by the County of the dedication of any street or other easement or way shown on the plat. D. No change in a subdivision, or in the plan of a subdivision, already approved, shall be made without the approval of the director. E. The approval for recordation of the final plat by the director shall not relieve the subdivider of the responsibility for any error or errors in the dimensions or other discrepancies. Such errors or discrepancies shall be revised or corrected upon request to the satisfaction of the director. (Ord. No. 4053, § 20, 2013; Ord. 789 § 1 (part), 1974: prior code § 11-1.16(b))
