§ 89.380. Planning commission to approve improvements — commission disapproval, overruled, how.
Whenever the commission adopts the plan of the municipality or any part thereof, no street or other public facilities, or no public utility, whether publicly or privately owned, and, the location, extent and character thereof having been included in the recommendations and proposals of the plan or portions thereof, shall be constructed or authorized in the municipality until the location, extent and character thereof has been submitted to and approved by the planning commission. In case of disapproval the commission shall communicate its reasons to the council, and the council, by vote of not less than two-thirds of its entire membership, may overrule the disapproval and, upon the overruling, the council or the appropriate board or officer may proceed, except that if the public facility or utility is one the authorization or financing of which does not fall within the province of the council, then the submission to the planning commission shall be by the board having jurisdiction, and the planning commission's disapproval may be overruled by that board by a vote of not less than two-thirds of its entire membership. The acceptance, widening, removal, extension, relocation, narrowing, vacation, abandonment, change of use, acquisition of land for, sale or lease of any street or other public facility is subject to similar submission and approval, and the failure to approve may be similarly overruled. The failure of the commission to act within sixty days after the date of official submission to it shall be deemed approval.
