[Ord. 686, 8/12/2015]
When requested by the developer, in order to facilitate financing,
the Township Board of Commissioners shall furnish the developer with
a signed copy of a resolution indicating approval of the final plat
contingent upon the developer executing the development agreement
and posting any required performance bond. The final plat shall not
be signed nor recorded until the performance bond is posted and the
development agreement is executed. The resolution shall expire and
be deemed to be revoked if the performance bond is not posted and
the development agreement is not executed within 90 days, unless a
written extension is granted by the Township Board of Commissioners.
Such extension shall not be unreasonably withheld and shall be placed
in writing at the request of the developer.
[Ord. 686, 8/12/2015]
In all subdivisions or land developments where private improvements are required by this chapter or are voluntarily provided by the developer, an amenities bond shall be required. The procedure for posting the amenities bond shall be the same as that required by §
22-411 of this chapter for posting a performance bond, except that the estimate of the cost of completion of the required private improvements shall be prepared by the applicant's or developer's engineer and shall be certified by such engineer to be a fair and reasonable estimate of such costs. The Township, upon the recommendation of the Township Engineer, may refuse to accept such estimate for good cause shown. Disputes shall be resolved in accordance with the procedure specified in §
22-411.
