Engineer.
Streets, including the sidewalks, must be graded to a true grade
as established by a surveyor and approved by the Township Engineer.
The road bed of streets shall be paved the full distance between
curbs or between the curblines where curbs are not required. The pavement
shall consist of concrete or of not less than eight inches of stone
and asphalt known as the "penetration type," or of a substance and
quality recognized as equally serviceable and acceptable to the Township
Engineer and the Committee on Streets and Highways.
Curbs shall be constructed of concrete not less than 18 inches
high, 10 inches thick at the base and six inches at the top.
Plans and specifications of all improvements shall be subject
to the approval of the Township Engineer.
All public utilities shall be installed prior to the paving

Proper drainage facilities shall have been provided and included
and shall consist of catch basins and an underdrainage pipeline on
streets of such a grade as to require such protection.
A written approval as to all engineering details shall be furnished
the Township Council by the Township Engineer before they accept any

After the street is opened on the ground, a deed shall be properly
executed by all the owners of the land within it and delivered to
the Township Council conveying the land to the Township, in fee simple,
free of all encumbrances, including taxes and assessments, which deed
shall be accompanied by three maps, accurately delineating the street
and the recording fees for such deed. The Township Council may accept
the same, provided that the conditions set forth herein are complied
with, but the Township Council shall not be bound to accept any dedicated
street.
