Such an acceptance must be recorded in the office of the county recorder and be so noted by the recorder on the subdivision plat, if the county recorder does not maintain a cumulative index for such plats and amendments. If such an index is maintained, the county recorder shall direct an appropriate entry for the acceptance or amendment.
