(2) 
Monuments. The subdivision shall be monumented (boundaries marked by iron pipes) in accordance with the requirements of Section 236.15, Wis. Stats. If the topography is such that grading is required, or when requested by the Village Engineer, the subdivider shall place the monuments after the grading is completed. The subdivider shall execute a surety acceptable to the Village, in an amount required by the Village Engineer, to ensure that the monuments will be placed within the required time.
(3) 
Improvements.
(a) 
Building permit issuance. Prior to the issuance of any building permits in a subdivision or a land division located within the corporate limits of the Village, the subdivider shall have completed the installation of all required street and utility improvements as hereinafter provided. A building permit may be issued prior to the completion of required improvements if the following conditions are met:
1. 
Direct access to the lot may be obtained from other improved streets not under construction.
2. 
The Village has received approval for required sewer and water main extensions from the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources.

All required deposits and fees have been paid by the subdivider.
5. 
The Village or the subdivider has awarded a contract for the installation of improvements.
6. 
The subdivider has executed a waiver of notice and protest of special assessments.
(b) 
Public water supply. Water mains and appurtenance shall be installed in accordance with plans and specifications prepared by the Village Engineer to provide service to each lot within the subdivision or land division. The subdivider shall assume the cost of installing all water mains.
(c) 
Sewage collection system. Sanitary sewer mains and appurtenances shall be installed in accordance with plans and specifications prepared by the Village Engineer to provide service to each lot within the subdivision or land division.

An exception for sidewalks on one side of a street may be granted by the Plan Commission in areas of lower density.
(f) 
Drainage system.
1. 
The subdivider shall install a drainage system, including storm sewers, necessary to manage all stormwater draining through the lands being developed in accordance with the design standards set forth in Section 15.058 and as approved by the Village Engineer.
2. 
The Village Engineer shall review the master site grading and drainage plan at the time it is submitted for Plan Commission review. At this time, the Village Engineer shall determine if it is necessary to increase the capacity of the proposed drainage system to enable said system to serve the entire basin or subbasin. Where the Village Engineer determines such increase in capacity is necessary, the Village Engineer shall also determine that portion of the estimated cost of constructing the required drainage system components which is attributable to such increase in capacity of the drainage system components.
3. 
The cost of constructing the drainage system components which serve the plat or planned development shall be borne solely by the developer. If the Village Engineer determines that the drainage system components must be oversized to accommodate flows originating off site, the Village shall be responsible for the difference between the costs to construct a drainage system serving the development and the costs to increase the capacity of the drainage system to accommodate off-site flows.
4. 
Final approval of the master site grading and drainage plan shall be made by the Village Engineer in writing.
(g) 
Streetlamps. The subdivider shall install streetlamps along all streets proposed to be dedicated of a design comparable with the neighborhood and type of development proposed. Such lamps shall be placed at each street intersection and at such interior block spacing as may be required by the Plan Commission.
(h) 
Street signs. The subdivider shall install, at the intersection of all streets proposed to be dedicated, a street sign of a design specified by the Village Engineer.
(i) 
Street trees. The subdivider shall install street trees in accordance with standards approved by the Parks, Recreation and Forestry Committee.
Additional improvements, reasonable in nature, may be required by the Village even though the same are not herein specified. Such improvements shall be installed in accordance with the plans and specifications prepared by the Village Engineer.
All improvements shall be installed by contractors approved by the Public Works and Properties Committee in accordance with the plans and specifications prepared by the Village Engineer.
The improvements specified shall be installed under the inspection of the Village Engineer at the expense of the subdivider. The required improvements shall be approved and accepted by the Village Board prior to the issuance of any building permits in the subdivision.

Cost reimbursement; agreements. Developers shall reimburse the Village for all administrative, engineering and legal service costs incurred in map or plat review and shall execute the agreements and file the securities required under the Village Fee Schedule.
(2) 
Preliminary development agreement. At the time of filing a preliminary application under Section 15.032, the developer shall execute for the benefit of the Village an agreement agreeing to pay and providing adequate security guaranteeing payment of the cost of review of the preliminary application and the final plat or map by the Plan Commission and Village Board, including, without limitation by enumeration, legal, engineering, and general administrative costs. No preliminary application shall be processed by the Village until a preliminary development agreement is executed and filed with the Village Clerk and the required security, approved by the Village Engineer, is provided. The Village Board may, from time to time, adopt a model preliminary development agreement. A copy of the model agreement shall be kept on file in the office of the Village Clerk.
(3) 
Final development agreement. At the time of submission of the final map or plat under Section 15.033, the developer shall execute a final developer's agreement agreeing to pay and providing adequate security guaranteeing payment to the Village of the costs of required public improvements described in Section 15.061, including, without limitation by enumeration, the legal, engineering, general administrative and construction costs. No final map or plat shall be reviewed or processed until the Village Clerk states on the face of the proposed final map or plat that the contract required by this subsection has been executed and the required security provided. The Village Board may, from time to time, adopt a model final development agreement. A copy of the model agreement shall be kept on file in the office of the Village Clerk.
(1) 
By private contract.
(a) 
All required improvements specified herein shall be installed at the sole expense of the subdivider, including construction staking and inspection provided by the Village Engineer and other indirect costs. The subdivider shall contract with one (1) general contractor for the installation of all required improvements. The general contractor and all subcontractors shall meet the qualifications under Section 15.064. Before the subdivider enters into a construction contract, the Village shall approve the completion terms called for by such contract. The subdivider shall also enter into an agreement with the Village setting forth the subdivider's obligation to the Village.
(b) 
To guarantee the satisfactory installation of the required improvements, and as a condition for approval of the final plat, the subdivider shall file with the Village a surety document acceptable to the Village that is no more than one hundred ten percent (110%), of the estimated direct and indirect costs of the required improvements. As work progresses, the Village may permit a reduction in the amount guaranteed by the surety document equal to the value of the improvements installed and approved by the Village. However, the surety amount shall not be less than fifteen percent (15%) of the original amount. The subdivider shall guarantee all improvements constructed against defects in material and workmanship for a period of one (1) year from the date of acceptance by the Village. During the guaranteed period, the subdivider shall promptly repair or replace any work determined to be defective by the Village Engineer. Upon completion of the guarantee period, and if all defects have been corrected, the Village shall release the remaining surety.
(2) 
By public contract.
(a) 
The Village Board may, upon written request of a subdivider, elect to contract on behalf of the Village for installation of the required improvements. Prior to the Village entering into such contract, the subdivider shall furnish an irrevocable letter of credit, with the Village as beneficiary, that is no more than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the estimated cost of all required improvements as determined by the Village Engineer.
(b) 
The cost of all required improvements shall be assessed by the Village against the property benefited thereby. As a condition for approval of the final plat, the subdivider shall waive, pursuant to Section 66.0703(7)(b), Wis. Stats., the notice and hearing otherwise required for the levy of a special assessment for the cost of the installed improvements.
(1) 
Special assessments levied for the cost of improvements provided by public contract may be paid in full within thirty (30) days' notice of the amount due or, at the subdivider's option, in equal annual installments as approved by the Village Board, the first such installment being due on the date the real estate taxes become due for the year in which the improvements were completed and the remaining installments being due on each anniversary thereafter.
(2) 
After each annual installment hereunder is paid, the letter of credit amount required under Section 15.067(2)(a) shall be reduced by twenty percent (20%).
(3) 
Any unpaid balance due hereunder shall bear interest in favor of the Village at an annual rate which is one and one-half percent (1.5)% greater than the interest rate at which the Village has borrowed funds for a particular project. Such interest shall accrue from the date the Village expenditures for such project first exceed the payment required by the Village Fee Schedule.
(4) 
Notwithstanding anything stated herein to the contrary, upon the sale of any parcel for which a special assessment has been levied under this section, the full balance of the special assessment, including accrued interest for such parcel, shall become due and payable, and if not immediately paid, in addition to any other available remedies, the Village may at its option withhold issuing a building permit for construction on such parcel.
If the Village Board elects not to defer the assessments, the subdivider shall pay the costs of all required improvements and shall be entitled to reimbursement therefor which benefits other undeveloped lands. The right to reimbursement shall, however, be delayed until such other lands are also improved or otherwise subdivided or developed. The Village may enter into an agreement with the subdivider requiring payment for the cost of public improvements which have benefitted undeveloped lands. The Village shall condition the approval of any future land divisions or subdivisions of the benefitted property upon such payment. Calculations of sums reimbursable hereunder shall be determined by the Village Engineer and be based upon original costs only, without accrued interest or introduction of inflationary factors. All rights to reimbursement shall expire twenty (20) years from the date of plat approval for the subdivision which necessitated the original improvements for which such reimbursement is sought.
