    3. None of the provisions of these regulations shall be construed to require replatting in any case in which subdivision plats have been made and legally recorded pursuant to any regulations previously in force; and all plats heretofore filed for record and not subsequently vacated are hereby declared valid, notwithstanding the fact that the procedures or the manner and form of acknowledgement may have been different than those prescribed by these regulations. However, if any such subdivision has never been or has partially been improved with paved streets, curb, gutter, sidewalks and proper utility lines, no building permit will be issued for those lots within such subdivision or part thereof that does not have direct access to said improvements until those public improvements have been installed according to the adopted City of Lander Engineering Standards and Specifications Manual - Most Recent Edition. The financial responsibility for installing those improvements rests with the owner(s) of record of that/those lot(s). The owner(s) that must have those public improvements installed shall make application to the City for the establishment of a Public Improvement District as provided under Chapter 15, Title 6, Wyoming State Statutes (1977), as amended, with said District being of sufficient size to encompass the entire subdivision or a portion thereof as determined by the City Engineer/Public Works Director.
