When the developer has completed the required public improvements in a plan the developer shall notify the Township, in writing, by certified or registered mail. Within 10 days of the receipt of such notification, the Board of Supervisors shall authorize the Township Engineer to conduct a final inspection of the public improvements in the plan to determine compliance with the design standards specified in Article
VIII of this chapter and the Township Construction Standards.
Upon completion of the public improvements in a plan, "as-built"
plans and profiles of the public improvements, as constructed, shall
be filed with the Township by the developer within 10 days of the
mailing of the notice of completion. A mylar and print of each as-built
drawing shall be submitted. As-built plans and profiles shall be marked
"as-built" and shall contain the final grade of all sanitary and storm
sewers and appurtenances. Horizontal angles between sanitary sewer
manholes shall be shown.
In the event that the public improvements required to be installed
by the provisions of this chapter are not installed in accordance
with the requirements of this chapter or the approved final plat prior
to the expiration of the performance bond, the Board of Supervisors
shall have the power to enforce the performance bond by appropriate
legal and equitable remedies provided by the laws of the Commonwealth
of Pennsylvania. If proceeds from the performance bond are insufficient
to pay the cost of installing or making repairs or corrections to
all the improvements guaranteed by such performance bond, the Board
of Supervisors may, at its option, install part of such improvements
in all or part of the subdivision or land development and may institute
appropriate legal or equitable action to recover the monies necessary
to complete the remainder of the improvements. All of the proceeds,
whether resulting from the performance bond or from any legal or equitable
action brought against the developer, or both, shall be used solely
for the installation of the improvements guaranteed by such performance
bond and not for any other municipal purpose.
Approval of private improvements for which an amenities bond
has been posted and final release of the amenities bond shall only
indicate compliance with the specifications shown on the approved
plan. Such approval and release of the amenities bond shall not imply
approval by the Township of the method of construction or the structural
integrity of the private improvements, nor shall there be any liability
associated with or responsibility for maintenance of those private
improvements by the Township. A maintenance bond shall not be required
to be posted for private improvements as a condition of release of
the amenities bond.
