All improvements in a subdivision shall conform
with these standards and specifications, and other requirements which
may be adopted by the Town or Frederick County, or by such other governmental
agencies which may have jurisdiction over each facility, as stipulated
below. Nothing, however, shall be construed as prohibiting a subdivider
from installing improvements of a higher type than the minimum required
herein.
Plans for the foregoing improvements shall be prepared by a registered professional engineer for review by the appropriate public authorities, as provided in §
130-13, prior to final plat approval. Such plans shall be sufficient to show the proposed location, sizes, type, grades, and design features of each facility, including the following:
A. Profiles: profile of each street center line, with
grades (including projections beyond the subdivision boundaries where
significant), and showing water and sewer lines, manholes, culverts,
streams, etc. at a scale of one inch to 50 feet horizontal, one inch
to five feet vertical.
B. Cross sections: typical street cross-sections for
all streets, at a scale not smaller than one inch to five feet, showing
width of roadway, type of paving, locations and widths of curbs, sidewalks,
trees, utilities, etc. Where considerable cuts or fills are required,
special cross-sections shall be shown on the plan. A grading plan
showing existing and proposed contours may be furnished in lieu of
special cross-sections.
C. Sanitary and storm drains: location plans and profiles
for proposed sanitary and storm sewers or drains, with grades and
pipe sizes indicated.
D. Water system: location plan of proposed water distribution
system showing pipe sizes and locations for valves and fire hydrants.
All construction work on improvements required
herein shall be subject to inspection during and upon completion of
construction by an authorized engineering representative of the Town
and to approval and acceptance by such representative on behalf of
the Town, if found to be in accordance with the approved plan.
