and restrictive covenants - Reversion of fee.

A. The owner of any lot in a plat which has been vacated by

decree or written instrument may cause the same and a proportionate

part of adjacent public ways and public grounds to be replatted and

numbered by a registered land surveyor. The owner of any platted

lot or lots may replat the lot or lots without necessity of vacating

the initial plat or applicable portion thereof if such action is not

prohibited by any restrictive covenants encumbering the lots. A

replat shall not be deemed a vacation of the initial plat nor affect

any preexisting public ways, utility easements or rights-of-way. A

replat or a vacation of a plat shall not be deemed a termination of

any restrictive covenants which are otherwise enforceable. When a

replat is acknowledged by the owner and bears the approval of the

municipality in which the plat is situated and is recorded in the

office of the county clerk of the county in which the plat is

located, the lots may be conveyed and assessed by the numbers given

them on the plat.

B. When any part of a plat has been vacated by decree or

written instrument, the owners of the lots so vacated may enclose

the public ways and public grounds adjoining the lots in equal

proportion.

C. Nothing contained in this article shall operate to preclude

a fee from reverting to its owner when a public right-of-way is

vacated in law or in fact.
