    Subdivision 1. Plats and surveys in counties. In any county in which there is a county
surveyor or other licensed land surveyor hired for this purpose by the county, the county board

or registered land survey plat or common interest community plat must be approved by the county
surveyor or other licensed land surveyor hired for this purpose by the county before recording.
The county board shall establish a schedule of fees charged to proprietors of plats for this service.
    Subd. 2. Common interest community plats. A county board may, by ordinance adopted in
accordance with section 375.51, require that each common interest community plat submitted
