Before beginning any construction of the improvements authorized
in this article on proposed roadways, public utilities, or drainage
facilities, or structures pertaining to any subdivision coming under
the provisions of this article and within the city limits, complete

completely approved by the city engineer or his designated engineer
as meeting the city’s standards in connection with the approval
of a final plat of the proposed subdivision by the city council.
