natural surface drainage is inadequate, the developer shall install a stormwater
sewer system in accordance with approved plans and profiles. The system shall

The developer shall submit his engineer's calculations upon which the size
of conduits, culverts and other portions of the proposed storm sewer system

Whenever the lot width is less than 150 feet at the building line, the
developer shall install curbs in accordance with the municipality's specifications.
The governing body shall require curbs in any subdivision or land development
where necessary for proper drainage. Gutters and stabilized shoulders must
be provided in all areas where curbs are not used.
Whenever the lot width is less than 150 feet at the building line, or
when multifamily dwellings are provided, sidewalks shall be installed in accordance
with the municipality's specifications. The governing body may require the
installation of sidewalks or pedestrian walkways in any subdivision or land
development when deemed necessary for the public safety or convenience.
The subdivision or land development shall be provided with street name
signs at all intersections. Such signs shall conform to the municipality's
specifications and shall be installed by the developer in a manner specified
by the municipality.
All electric and telephone service, including streetlighting, shall
be placed underground in compliance with the Public Utility Commission's regulations.
In cases where any of the foregoing requirements are not deemed appropriate
by the governing body to serve in the public interest, the governing body
reserves the right to increase, change, alter or substitute materials, manner
