(vi) Identification of all contiguous properties or waterways.

(vii) In the case of expandable condominium projects, all land on which the balance of the project may be located shall be shown, complete with distances, bearings, and curve data, identified as proposed future development. This land shall be shown in relationship to the phase being currently submitted.

(viii) A location map of the project with its relationship to the surrounding area.

(c) A floodplain plan when the condominium lies within or abuts a floodplain area, showing all the following:

(i) The location of all condominium buildings and improvements.

(ii) The floodplain shall be shown within a contour line as established by the department of natural resources.

(iii) The floodplain contour line shall be shown to the point where it intersects with the boundaries of the condominium project or to its limits, whichever is greater, and be dimensioned to the nearest whole foot from the street or traverse line.

(iv) The contours over the entire project shown at 2-foot intervals.

(v) The floodplain area shall be clearly labeled with words "floodplain area." A common element or a condominium unit, other than a campsite or a marina unit, shall not be constructed where it may be reasonably anticipated that the structures will be damaged by flooding. Where the proposed condominium project is within a floodplain, the administrator may require a statement from a registered engineer that the subject property is not in apparent present or future danger of flooding, including herewith an explanation of the factors leading to that conclusion.

(d) A site plan showing all of the following:

(i) Specific locations of all property corners, condominium buildings or units, and improvements by a coordinate system established in the form of latitudes and departures in north-south and east-west directions from an established point, preferably a property corner.

(ii) All coordinate values referenced to either the Michigan coordinate system, prescribed by Act No. 9 of the Public Acts of 1964, being SS 54.231 to 54.239 of the Michigan Compiled Laws, or to a city coordinate system, if one exists, or to a monument set during the survey, if such coordinate systems have not been established.

(iii) The relationship of the condominium units to the condominium property boundaries by either showing 2 coordinates on the same line, as prescribed in (ii) above, on 2 corners of the building or unit, or by 1 coordinate on the building or unit corner, and by a bearing related to the true meridian or a previously established meridian.

(iv) All general and limited common elements and approximate size.

(e) A utility plan showing all of the following:

(i) All utility lines for gas, electricity, water, steam, telephones, storm sewer, sanitary sewer, or services of a similar nature.

(v) A number assigned to each unit.
