The purpose of these regulations is to establish
a procedure for collecting inspection fees for certain improvements
that are ultimately to be dedicated to the City of North Tonawanda
and for improvements affecting said city's utilities. These inspection
fees are to be used to pay for the time spent in observing the installation
of these improvements and for accepting dedication to the city. These
regulations establish the process for making applications for public
improvements. An application must be made for any facility to be dedicated
to the city.
No person, firm, association or corporation
shall install or construct, or perform any work incident to the installation
and/or construction of any public improvement upon real property in
the City of North Tonawanda without first having obtained a permit
therefor, to be issued by the City Engineer after certification by
the City Engineer that the plans and specifications as submitted by
the applicant comply with the specifications and requirements of the
City of North Tonawanda. The fee for such permit shall be the sum
of $50.
In submitting the final installed improvements
to the City Engineer for dedication, the developer shall also submit
a maintenance bond to guarantee the maintenance and repair of the
improvements in the development for one year after construction thereof
has been accepted and dedicated to the City of North Tonawanda. Separate
bonds for each improvement shall be filed, and the bond shall be in
the amount of 25% of the value of the improvement and in a form acceptable
to the City Attorney.
The mere filing of a deed conveying property
to the City of North Tonawanda will not in any way obligate said City
of North Tonawanda to accept same for maintenance purposes.
This chapter shall take effect upon filing with
the Secretary of State.
