All roads, whether maintained by the City, County, a homeowners’
association or a group of property owners, shall be constructed in
accordance with these Regulations and shall be classified as one of
the three following types of roads (referred to collectively as “Permitted
Roads”):
7.01.A
Publicly dedicated, paved and to be maintained by City of Ingram and constructed pursuant to Section 7.06 or by the County if in the ETJ of the City.
7.01.B
Private, paved and to be maintained by Homeowners’ Association or property owners in perpetuity (or until constructed to then-applicable City or County standards for acceptance of maintenance, and accepted for maintenance by resolution of the City Council) and constructed pursuant to Section 7.07; or
7.01.C
Private, not paved and to be maintained by a Homeowners’ Association or property owners in perpetuity (or until construction to then-applicable City or County standards for acceptance of maintenance, and accepted for maintenance by resolution of City Council) and constructed pursuant to Section 7.08.
(Ordinance 1219062 adopted 12/19/06)
Any dedication to the public shall be accomplished either by
deed conveying a fee simple interest, by a dedication on the plat
conveying a perpetual right-of-way easement in the property to the
City for public use, or by right-of-way easement. No dedication shall
be effective until the Final Plat is recorded. In no event shall any
private lot extend into a dedicated roadway.
(Ordinance 1219062 adopted 12/19/06)
All improvements shall be designed and installed so as to provide,
to the maximum extent feasible, a logical system of utilities, drainage
and roads and to permit continuity of improvements to adjacent properties.
(Ordinance 1219062 adopted 12/19/06)
Tracts shall have the minimum direct frontage onto a permitted
road set forth below, depending on the classification of road onto
which the resulting tract has frontage.

the minimum intervals as determined at discretion of the City Council.
(Ordinance 1219062 adopted 12/19/06)
Paved Roads dedicated to the public shall be required in all
Subdivisions except those satisfying the criteria for unpaved roads
or private roads, as set forth below. All such paved roads shall be
designed and constructed in accordance with the specifications set
forth in the
City of Ingram Road Design and Construction Specifications.

hundred (100) year frequency.
7.06.G
Overflow
Sections:
The City Council will consider allowing the

potential and the nature of the tributary area. The following conditions
are considered suitable for the installation of overflow sections:
7.06.G.1
Drainage Courses:
Drainage courses having no defined
channel where channel construction would develop liability for diversion
or concentration of runoff.
7.06.G.2
Streams:
Streams having a defined channel for normal
flow and usual runoff with a wide floodplain covered by infrequent
storms.
7.06.G.3
Stream Crossings:
Stream crossings where traffic potential
does not economically warrant bridge construction.
7.06.G.4
Construction:
Overflow
sections shall be of reinforced concrete, not less than five (5) inches
in thickness and containing five (5) sacks of Portland cement per
cubic yard of finished concrete; shall extend horizontally between
high water elevation calculated for a design storm frequency; and
perimeter footing shall extend downward to stable foundation.
7.06.G.4.1
Reinforcement:
Reinforcement shall be not less than
No. 4 bars placed twelve (12") inches on centers, both longitudinally
and transversely. Laps, if required, shall be not less than twenty
(20) inches and shall be staggered in position. Laps shall be forty
(40) times bar diameter.
7.06.G.4.2
Crown Width:
The crown width of overflow sections shall
be not less than two (2) feet wider than the approach pavement or
surface.
7.06.H
Base
or Base Courses:
7.06.H.1
Material:
Material for
base courses shall be in accordance with Texas Department of Transportation
(TxDOT) Standard Specification as specified for each of the following
type of roadways. (See Appendix J [Appendix K])
7.06.H.2
Construction Methods:
Base on all streets and roads
shall have a compacted base depth of not less than six (6") inches
and shall be constructed in two approximately equal courses. The material
shall be dumped, spread, mixed, wind rowed, watered and other operations
necessary to produce a uniformly blended mixture of the desired course
thickness, moisture condition land [and] gradation. Shaping of the
blended mixture to the required grade and line shall follow the mixing
procedure and precede the compaction. Compaction of each course of
material shall be accomplished by suitable equipment to obtain a minimum
density of 95% of AASHTO T180-61 (Standard Proctor). Moisture content
shall be maintained near optimum during compaction. Soft spots that
develop during compaction will be removed and replaced to the required
density. Areas that show evidence of segregation shall be replaced
before the compaction of the course is complete. The same procedures
shall be used in the construction of each course.
7.06.H.3
Variances:
The City Council may permit minor variances
from soil constant requirements stated in the above listed specifications
when the minimum compacted depth of course is increased from the minimum
stated.
7.06.H.4
Testing Material:
Prior to delivery of base material
to the road or street, the results of physical tests of the material
proposed for use shall be submitted to the City for approval. These
test results shall be certified as conforming to the requirements
by an approved commercial laboratory. The certification shall define
the area and column represented by the tabulated results.
7.06.I
Prime
Coat:
After final finishing, curing and correction of
any irregularities developed during the curing period have been corrected,
the area of the base which is to receive surfacing may be primed with
an application of approximately two-tenths (0.2) gallons of AEP or
SSI cutback asphalt, or equivalent, per square yard of surface covered.
Generally traffic shall be diverted from the primed area until placement
of the surface. Should diversion of traffic not be feasible, the prime
coat shall be blanket rolled with a pneumatic roller immediately following
application. Prime coat shall be permitted to cure following application
and before application of surface courses of pavement.

whatsoever to repair or accept maintenance of the roads shown in this
subdivision until and unless ___________ (Owner) and/or the ___________Homeowners’
Association has improved the roadways to the then current standards
required by City of Ingram and the roads have been accepted for maintenance
by formal, written action of the City of Ingram City Council and the
roadway has been dedicated by the owners thereof, and accepted by

All
private roads shall be signed in accordance with these regulations.
(See Section 5.02.I.3)
(Ordinance 1219062 adopted 12/19/06)
Unpaved roads shall be designed and constructed in accordance
with City of Ingram Road Design and Construction Specifications except
