A. Typical cross-section drawing(s) for all proposed streets with construction details of streets, curbs and sidewalks. Cross-section drawings may be shown on either the preliminary plan or on separate profile sheets. Tentative profiles along the top of cartway (pavement) edge or along the top of curb for both sides of each proposed street shall be shown. Such profiles shall show existing and proposed grades at one of the following sets of scales:
(1) One inch equals 10 feet horizontal and one inch equals one foot vertical.

J. Where a preliminary plan shows the proposed subdivision of only a part of the subdivider's total property, the plan shall include a drawing showing the entire contiguous land holdings of the subdivider and indicating the area of ultimate proposed subdivision.

In the case of extremely large properties the Borough may delimit the area for which a prospective street system on adjacent property must be shown. The subdivider shall also include a statement indicating proposed future land use for the unsubmitted portion of his property.
