“Dedication” means the deliberate appropriation of land or improvements by the owner for any general and public use, reserving to himself no other rights than are compatible with the full exercise and enjoyment of the public uses to which the property has been devoted. The dedication shall be evidenced by the owner on the final recorded documents, and the acceptance by the public shall be evidenced by the approval of such plat for filing by the city council.
