§ 36-7-3-4 — Survey and plat; order; adoption; resolutions; requisites

(a) A municipality that does not have a sufficient
survey and plat of its corporate territory may, by a resolution of its
legislative body passed by a two-thirds (2/3) vote, order a survey and
plat of the municipality. When the survey and plat have been made, the
legislative body may adopt them by a resolution passed by three-fourths
(3/4) vote (as described in IC 36-1-8-14). If a survey and plat of the
municipality have already been made, without the order of the
legislative body, it may adopt them by a resolution passed by a
three-fourths (3/4) vote.
(b) The survey and plat are considered adopted by the municipality
for all purposes if a certified copy of the resolution adopting the survey
and plat is:
(1) signed by the municipal executive and clerk;
(2) attested by the seal of the municipality; and
(3) recorded with the survey and plat in the office of the recorder
of the county in which the municipality is located.
The copy of the resolution must include a statement of the names of the
persons voting for and against it.
