After the installation of all utility and stormwater drainage
improvements, the subdivider shall surface all roadways in streets
proposed to be dedicated to the widths prescribed by these regulations
and the Comprehensive Plan or the Comprehensive Plan components of
the Village. All roadways shall be surfaced with a three-and-one-half-inch
hot-mix bituminous concrete pavement, made up of a two-inch binder
course and a one-and-one-half-inch surface course, placed on an eight-inch-thick
gravel base. The bituminous pavement shall be constructed in stages,
the binder course being placed initially upon completion of the utilities,
and the surface course being placed at such time that 75% of the lots
within the subdivision have been developed, but not sooner than one
year after the date the binder course was placed. All failures in
the binder course shall be repaired and no bituminous surface shall
be laid later than October 1 of any given year. Said surfacing shall
be done in accordance with plans and standard specifications approved
by the Village Plan Commission upon the recommendation of the Village
Engineer.
In all subdivisions, the Village Board may require the subdivider
to construct concrete curb and gutters in accordance with plans and

375-0814 of this chapter.
In all subdivisions, the Village Board shall require the subdivider
to construct a concrete sidewalk on both sides of all streets within
the subdivision. The construction of all sidewalks shall be in accordance
with plans and standard specifications approved by the Village Plan
Commission, upon the recommendation of the Village Engineer. In addition,
wider-than-standard sidewalks may be required by the Village Board
in the vicinity of schools, commercial areas, and other places of
public assemblage, and the Village Board may require the construction
of sidewalks in locations other than required under the preceding
provisions of this chapter if such walks are necessary in its opinion
for safe and adequate pedestrian circulation.
When the proposed subdivision or certified survey map is located
within the adopted sanitary sewer service area of the Village of Williams
Bay, the subdivider shall construct sanitary sewerage facilities in
such a manner as to make adequate sanitary sewerage service available
to each lot within the subdivision. In addition:
A. The Village Board shall require the installation of sewer laterals
to the front or street side lot line for residential lots.
B. The size, type, and installation of all sanitary sewers and sanitary
laterals proposed to be constructed shall be in accordance with plans

by mechanical methods, meeting the approval of the Village Plan Commission,
upon the recommendation of the Village Engineer.
C. The subdivider shall assume the cost of installing all sanitary sewers,
sewer laterals, and sewer appurtenances within the proposed subdivision.
In addition, the subdivider shall pay to the Village a sanitary sewer
trunk line connection fee based on the added cost of installing larger
sewers in the total tributary drainage area, which shall be prorated
in proportion to the ratio which the total area of the proposed plat
is to the total drainage area to be served by such larger sewers.
The subdivider shall construct stormwater drainage facilities,
adequate to serve the subdivision which may include curbs and gutters,
catch basins and inlets, storm sewers, road ditches, open channels,
water retention structures and settling basins. All such facilities
shall be of adequate size and grade to hydraulically accommodate the
maximum potential volumes of flow and shall be so designed as to prevent
and control soil erosion and sedimentation and to present no hazards
to life or property. In addition:
A. Unpaved road ditches and street gutters shall be shaped and seeded
and/or sodded as grassed waterways. Where the velocity of flow is
in excess of four feet per second on soils having a severe or very
severe erosion hazard and in excess of six feet per second on soils
having moderate, slight, or very slight erosion hazard, the subdivider
shall install a paved invert or check dams, flumes, or other energy
dissipating devices.
B. Shoreland drainage facilities shall, if required, include water retention
structures and settling basins so as to prevent erosion and sedimentation
where such facilities discharge into streams or lakes. The design
criteria, the size, type, grades and installation of all stormwater
drains and sewers and other cross-section, invert and erosion control
paving check dams, flumes or other energy dissipating structures and
seeding and/or sodding of open channels and unpaved road ditches proposed
to be constructed shall be in accordance with the plans and standard
specifications approved by the Village Engineer.
C. The subdivider shall assume the cost of installing all storm sewers
within the proposed subdivision, except for the added cost of installing
storm sewers greater than those which are necessary to serve tributary
drainage areas lying outside of the proposed subdivision. In addition,
the subdivider shall pay to the Village, a storm sewer trunk line
connection fee based on the added cost of installing larger sewers
in the total tributary drainage area which shall be prorated in proportion
to the ratio which the total area of the proposed plat is to the total
drainage area to be served by such larger sewers.
When the proposed subdivision or certified survey map is located
within the adopted water service area of the Village of Williams Bay,
or when it is proposed to establish a private water supply and distribution
system to serve two or more lots, the subdivider shall cause such
water supply and distribution facilities to be installed in such a
manner as to make adequate water service available to each lot within
the subdivision. The subdivider shall make provision for adequate
private water systems as required by the Village in accordance with
the standards of the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources. In
addition:
A. The Village Board shall require the installation of water laterals
to the front or street side lot line.
B. The size, type, and installation of all public water mains proposed
to be constructed shall be in accordance with plans and standard specifications
approved by the Village Plan Commission, upon the recommendation of
the Village Engineer.
C. The subdivider shall assume the cost of installing all water mains,
water laterals, and water system appurtenances within the proposed
subdivision.
The subdivider shall cause gas, electrical power, cable TV,
and telephone facilities to be installed in such a manner as to make

Board shall, and in other subdivisions may, require the developer
to plant at least one tree of an approved species and of at least
1 1/2 inches in diameter at breast height (dbh) for each 50 feet
of frontage on all streets to be dedicated. The trees shall be planted
within the curb lawn. In addition:
A. In lieu of planting street trees, the subdivider may, at the time
of final plat approval or certified survey map approval, pay a tree
fee to the Village Treasurer in an amount provided in the Village
Fee Schedule for each tree to be planted. Monies collected for tree
planting shall be kept in a special tree planting fund for that purpose.
[Amended at time of adoption of Code (see Ch. 1, General
Provisions, Art. II)]
B. Tree plantings shall be completed by the subdivider or by the Village,
as determined by the Village Board, in accordance with plans and specifications
