It is the intent of the Town of Wallkill that all site plan and subdivision projects utilize the Town of Wallkill's permanent survey monuments. In furtherance of this objective, the Town of Wallkill has had permanent survey monuments installed at various locations throughout the town incorporating latitude, longitude and elevations based upon the North American Datum (NAD) and the corresponding New York State Plane Coordinate (NYSPC) System. This survey monumentation provides a proper and sound data base for the planning of future development in the town and for the engineering, construction and as-built drawings of site improvements, sanitary sewer lines, waterlines, storm drainage systems, road improvements and related.
All site development plans within the Town of Wallkill shall utilize the permanent town survey monuments for the site plan maps prepared in accordance with § 249-40E of the Town Code. Any reference in the Town Code to United States Geological Survey Datum shall now mean the North American Datum (NAD) and the New York State Plane Coordinate (NYSPC) System as established by the permanent town survey monuments. A developer must comply with the requirement of utilizing the town survey monuments in the development of site plan and subdivision maps, topography and proposed elevations of road, water, sewer, drainage and related improvements. All as-built drawings of on-site and off-site improvements must be based upon the town survey monuments.
