in any road within the Regional District unless such road (1) shall
have been accepted or opened as or shall otherwise have received
the legal status of a public road prior to May 24, 1939, or (2) ex-
actly corresponds in its location with a road shown on a Master
Plan of Highways heretofore or hereafter made and adopted by
the Commission or with a road on a sub-division plat heretofore or
hereafter approved by the Commission or with a road on a road
plat heretofore or hereafter made and adopted by the Commission.
Any such municipal council, County Council, County Commissioners
or other State, county, district, or local board or officer authorized
by law to accept or construct roads however, may construct or accept
a road not shown on or corresponding with such approved plan or
plats, provided the ordinance or other measure accepting or pro-
viding for the acceptance or construction of such road be first sub-
mitted to the Commission for its approval; and, if disapproved by
the Commission, be enacted or passed by not less than a majority
of the entire membership of such council or board. A road ap-
proved by the Commission upon such submission to it shall there-
upon have the status of an approved road as fully as though it had
been shown on a plat or plan originally made by the Commission
or on a sub-division plat approved by the Commission.

70. Plats of Sub-divisions of Land.

(a)  Approval of Commission required.No plat of any sub-di-
vision of land within the Regional District shall be admitted to the
land records of either Montgomery or Prince George's County, or
received or recorded by the Clerks of the courts of said counties,
until the plat shall have been submitted to and approved by the Com-
mission and such approval be indorsed in writing on the plat by its
chairman and secretary. The filing or recordation of a plat of a
sub-division without the approval of the Commission is void.

(b)  Fees for Commission's sub-division work.On the basis of
the estimated cost of the services to be rendered by it in connection
with the consideration of sub-divison plats and the work incidental
thereto, the Commission may fix the scale of fees to be paid to it
for its sub-division work and may from time to time amend such
scale. In the case of each sub-division plat submitted to the Com-
mission the fee thus fixed shall be paid before the plat is approved
or disapproved and carried into the administrative fund of the Com-
mission provided for in Section 93.

(c)  Recordation; clerk's fee.After such approval and upon re-
ceipt of the plat by the Clerk of the Circuit Court, every such plat
shall be firmly fixed in a well-bound book to be kept by the Clerk
of the Court for the purpose of recording plats and for the recording
of which the Clerk shall receive such fee as he shall determine to be
fair and reasonable.

(d)  Manner of preparing plats.Every plat of any sub-division
shall be prepared upon paper or cloth of such size and character,
with such notations, information, and markings as the Commission
may prescribe by regulation. Every approved sub-division of land
shall have permanent markers, bound stones, or stations as the
Commission shall prescribe, which shall be shown and designated
