Notice - Approval by governing body - Modifications - Filing.
After it has adopted any part of a master plan for any part of the territory within its planning 
jurisdiction, the planning commission may make or cause to be made, from time to time, 
surveys for the exact location of the lines of a street or streets shown in any portion of such 
master plan and may make a map of the land thus surveyed showing precisely the land which it 
recommends to be reserved for future acquisition for public streets. Before adopting any such 
map, the planning commission shall hold a public hearing thereon. A notice of the time and 
place of the hearing, with a general description of the district or area covered by the map, shall 
be given not less than ten days previous to the time fixed for the hearing by one publication in 
the official newspaper of the municipality if the district or area affected is within the municipality, 
and in a newspaper of general circulation in the county if the district or area affected is outside 
of the municipality. After such hearing, the commission may transmit the map as originally 
made, or as modified by it, to the governing body together with the commission's estimate of the 
time or times within which the lands shown on the map as street locations should be acquired 
by the municipality. The governing body, by resolution, may approve and adopt or may reject 
such map, or it may modify the map with the approval of the planning commission, or in the 
event of the planning commission's disapproval, the governing body by a favorable vote of not 
less than two -thirds of its entire membership, may modify such map and adopt the modified 
map. In the resolution adopting the map, the governing body shall fix the period of time for 
which the street locations shown upon the map shall be deemed reserved for future taking or 
acquisition. The city auditor shall file for record an attested copy of the map with the recorder of 
each county in which the mapped land is located and shall retain one copy for examination by 
the public.
