Dead-end streets shall be avoided wherever possible. If their use is unavoidable, all such streets and roads serving several otherwise isolated lots, where necessary in the opinion of the Borough Engineer and the Joint Planning/Zoning Board of Adjustment, shall have a circular turning space at the end with a minimum radius of 50 feet at the curbline, and, if sidewalks need to be provided for, the overall minimum radius of the right-of-way shall be 60 feet.

All of the improvements listed in the within Article VIII shall be subject to inspection and approval by the Borough Engineer, who shall be notified by the subdivider or developer at least 48 hours prior to the start of construction. No underground installation shall be covered until inspected and approved by the Borough Engineer or those agencies having jurisdiction over the particular installation.
B. 
The standard specifications of the Borough, as now or hereafter adopted, shall govern the construction and installation of all the above improvements. Failure of the subdivider, developer, his contractor or agents to conform to said specifications will be just cause for the suspension of the work being performed, and no person, firm or corporation shall have the right to demand or claim damages from the Borough, its officers, agents or servants by reason of such suspension.
The subdivider or developer shall pay to the Borough, in addition to the application fee, a reasonable charge for the inspection by the Borough Engineer for the installation of all improvements required to be installed by said subdivider or developer, exclusive of the sanitary sewer. Payment of the inspection fees shall be made in the following manner: As a condition of final approval, the developer shall deposit with the Borough Clerk an amount to be determined by the Borough Engineer sufficient to cover a reasonable charge for inspections. The developer shall also deposit with said Borough Clerk such amount to be determined by the Construction Code Official as reasonable charge to cover its inspections. Payments for inspection charges by the Borough Engineer or his agents shall be paid out of this fund upon presentation of bills by the Borough Engineer to the Borough Treasurer for such inspections. When the subdivision has been completed and all engineering inspection fees have been paid to the Borough Engineer, any remaining balance in the account shall be returned to the subdivider by the resolution of the Borough Council. The same rule shall apply to the Construction Code Official's inspections.
