B. The final plat and any other maps shall conform to one of the following sheet sizes: 18 inches by 24 inches; 24 inches by 36 inches; 36 inches by 48 inches. Where necessary to avoid sheets larger than the maximum, the final plat shall be shown on two or more sheets of uniform size and include a key diagram showing the relative location of the sections.
C. The final plat shall be at a scale of 50 feet to one inch or larger and shall contain the following data:
(1) Subdivision name or identifying title.
(2) North point, scale and date.
(3) Tract boundary lines, right-of-way lines of streets, easements and other right-of-way lines, property and lot lines with accurate dimensions, bearings, deflection angles, and radii, lengths or arcs and central angles of all curves, satisfactory to the Borough Engineer and sufficient to reproduce such lines upon the ground.
(4) Primary control points, approved by the Borough Engineer, or descriptions and ties to such points, to which all dimensions, angles, bearings and similar data on the plat shall be referred, and the location of all existing and proposed monuments.
(5) The boundary lines of a subdivision shall be determined by actual ground survey only, said survey to be traversed, balanced and closed; the total error of closure shall not exceed the linear ratio of 1:5,000 and the allowable angular error of closure shall not exceed 30 seconds times the square root of the number of angles.
(6) Names of record owners of adjoining unplatted land, and record name, date, index number, street and lot lines of adjacent subdivisions to a minimum distance of 100 feet beyond the proposed subdivision boundary.
(7) The proposed building setback line for each street or the proposed placement of each building and sight triangle lines.
(8) Names of streets within and adjacent to the subdivision and numbers of all lots.
(9) Affidavit and certificates inscribed on the plat in black waterproof ink in the form approved by the Planning Commission.
D. The final plat shall be accompanied by a topographic map at a scale of 50 feet to one inch or larger, which shall contain the following data:
(1) Boundary lines: bearings and distances.
(2) Easements: location, width and purpose.
(3) Streets on and adjacent to the tract: name and right-of-way width and location; type, width and elevation of surfacing; and legally established center-line elevations, walks, curbs, gutters, culverts, etc.
(4) Utilities on and adjacent to the tract: location, size and invert elevation of sanitary and storm sewers; location and size of water mains; location of gaslines, fire hydrants, electric and telephone poles, and streetlights; if water mains and sewers are not in or adjacent to the tract, indicate the direction and distance to and size of nearest ones, showing invert elevation of sewers.
(5) Ground elevations on the tract, based on Sandy Hook data; for land that slopes less than approximately 2%, show spot elevations at all breaks in grade, along all drainage channels or swales, and at selected points not more than 100 feet apart in all directions; for land that slopes more than approximately 2%, either show contours with an interval of not more than five feet if ground shape is regular and such information is sufficient for planning purposes, or show contours with an interval of not more than two feet if necessary because of irregular land or need for more detailed data for preparing plans and construction drawings.
(6) Subsurface conditions on the tract, if required by the Planning Commission: location and results of tests made to ascertain subsurface soil, rock and groundwater conditions; depth to groundwater unless test pits are dry at a depth of five feet.
(7) Other conditions on the tract; watercourse, marshes, rock outcrop, wooded areas, isolated preservable trees one foot or more in diameter, houses, barns, shacks and other significant features.
(8) Other conditions on adjacent land extending 100 feet beyond tract boundaries: approximate direction and gradient of ground slope, including any embankments or retaining walls, character and location of buildings, railroads, power lines, towers and other nearby nonresidential land uses or adverse influences; owners of adjacent unplatted land; for adjacent platted land, refer to subdivision plat by name, recording date, and number and show approximately the percent of buildup, typical lot size, and dwelling type.
(9) Zoning on and adjacent to the tract.
(10) Proposed public improvements: highways or other major improvements planned by public authorities for future construction on or near the tract.
(11) Key plan showing location of the tract at some legible scale.
(12) Title and certificates: present tract designated according to official records in office of appropriate recorder; title under which proposed subdivision is to be recorded, with names and addresses of owners, notation stating acreage, scale, North arrow, datum, bench marks, certification of registered civil engineer or surveyor.
E. The final plat shall include thereon or be accompanied by the following:
(1) Grading plan, which may be shown on the topographic map, existing and proposed elevations and contours in accordance with the standards for the topographic map; existing contours shall be shown as dotted lines and proposed contours shall be shown as solid lines.
(2) Location, size and invert elevation of all sewers and drainage structures, which may be shown on the grading plan.
(3) Profiles and typical cross section for all streets; profiles shall show the existing and proposed grades along the center line and ditch inverts or tops of curbs of proposed streets, sewer lines and drainage structures.
(4) A copy of all restrictions and covenants, if any, the subdivider intends to place in the deeds to the lots in the subdivision.
(5) Written application for final approval on an approved form.
(6) Although not required at the time of application for final approval, the subdivider shall file a completion guarantee before the plat will be approved by the Borough Council.
