[Amended 12-12-1988 by Ord. No. 1491]
Before approving any subdivision plan, Council shall require
a written agreement between the City of Warren and the subdivider
that the necessary grading, paving and street improvements, sidewalks,
monuments, streetlights, fire hydrants, water mains, sanitary sewers
and storm sewers, as may be required by the City, shall be constructed
and installed by the subdivider in strict accordance with the standards
and specifications within a specified time period not to exceed two
years. At the time of the execution of the written agreement, the
subdivider shall give to the Borough a performance bond with adequate
surety to guarantee to the City that the subdivider will construct,
or cause to be constructed, the required improvements that were an
integral part of his approved final plan. The amount of the bond shall
be determined by the City Engineer, and the amount of the bond shall
be in sufficient amount to cover the cost of said improvement. The
performance bond of the subdivider shall be approved by the City Solicitor
as to form, and the President of the Council and the City Secretary
shall not sign the approved map until certification from the City
Solicitor that the bond in is proper form. As public improvements
are installed by the subdivider, the amount of this performance bond
may be reduced by Council upon recommendation of the City Engineer.
The time for performance under said agreement and under the accompanying
bond may be extended beyond the two-year approval upon mutual agreement
between Council and the subdivider. The failure to complete the work
required under this agreement within a specified time or the failure
to perform the work under said agreement in accordance with the plans
and specifications shall be cause for proceeding against the subdivider
on his bond.
