additional information and analysis beyond the minimum requirements
of these standards and criteria will be required.
D.
The
City of St. Robert is not responsible for the accuracy and the adequacy
of the design or dimensions and elevations as depicted on the plans
(which shall be confirmed and correlated at the site of the work).
The City of St. Robert, through the approval of the plans and/or report,
assumes no responsibility for the completeness and/or accuracy of
the public improvement plan or report.
E.
All
developers and engineering consultants submitting plans for infrastructure
improvement projects to the City for review are required to follow
