Full text
If any person, his agent or attorney, shall cause a map or plat of any such city, town, village or addition thereto to be recorded, which does not set forth and describe all parcels of ground which have been or shall be promised or set apart for public uses, such persons shall forfeit double the value of the ground so promised or pretended to have been set apart for public uses, and not set forth on the plat. The forfeitures arising under this chapter may be recovered by civil action, with costs, in the name of the county to the use of the school fund of the incorporated city, town or village in which the land lies, or the county, as the case may be.
