11-3-8. County commissioners' approval required for plats outside municipalities--Resolution and auditor's certificate--Appeal of denial. If any person wishes to plat any lands lying outside the boundaries of a municipality, the person shall be governed by this chapter. Before recording the person's plat in accordance with § 11-3-6, the person shall submit the plat to the board of county commissioners of the county wherein such lands are situated. The approval of the board of county commissioners pursuant to this section may not be required for a plat as specified in § 11-6-26. The board of county commissioners shall examine the same. The board of county commissioners shall by resolution, approve the plat, and the auditor shall endorse on the plat a copy of the resolution and certify to the same if it appears that the system of streets conforms to the system of streets of existing plats and section lines of the county, that adequate provision is made for access to adjacent unplatted lands by public dedication or section line when physically accessible, that all provisions of any subdivision regulations of the county have been complied with, that all taxes and special assessments upon the tract or subdivision have been fully paid and that the plat and the survey of the land have been lawfully executed. The board of county commissioners may by resolution designate an administrative official of the county to approve plats in lieu of approval by the board of county commissioners. No plat of any addition or subdivision, so situated, is entitled to record or may be recorded unless the plat bears a copy of the resolution or approval and certificate of the auditor. If the designated administrative official denies the plat request, the person requesting the plat may appeal to the board of county commissioners.
