§ 8013 City Plan Filing Requirements

Key Takeaways

  • •The city must keep a copy of its big plans and cost guesses in the city clerk's office.
  • •Once the plans are approved, the city has to mostly follow them when doing stuff under this law.
  • •The plans can't be changed just because someone feels like it—they have to stick to what was decided.

Example

A city plans to build a new park and writes down where it will go and how much it will cost.

After the city approves the plan, they have to keep a copy in the city office and mostly follow it. They can't suddenly decide to build a parking lot instead unless they change the plan the right way.
