When the owner/developer has constructed and
installed all required improvements in accordance with Township regulations,
standards and specifications and approved plans, the developer shall,
in writing, addressed to the Township Secretary, request an engineering
inspection of the said private or public improvements.
If the Engineer shall find that the required
improvements have been constructed in accordance with Township regulations,
standards, specifications, plans, and the construction detail shown
on the plans, and shall be satisfied that the owner/developer has
complied fully with the provisions of this article, the Township Secretary
shall notify the owner to the effect and the owner shall thereupon
furnish the Township with:
A. Where the governing body accepts dedication of all
or some of the required improvements following completion, the governing
body shall require the posting of financial security to secure structural
integrity of said improvements as well as the functioning of said
improvements in accordance with the design and specifications as depicted
on the final plat for a term not to exceed 18 months from the date
of acceptance of dedication. Said financial security shall be of the
same type as otherwise required in this section with regard to installation
of such improvements, and the amount of the financial security shall
not exceed 15% of the actual cost of installation of said improvements.
B. If water mains or sanitary sewer lines, or both, along
with apparatus or facilities related thereto, are to be installed
under the jurisdiction and pursuant to the rules and regulations of
a public utility or municipal authority separate and distinct from
the municipality, financial security to assure proper completion and
maintenance thereof shall be posted in accordance with the regulations
of the controlling public utility or Township authority and shall
not be included within the financial security as otherwise required
by this section.
C. If financial security has been provided in lieu of
the completion of improvements required as a condition for the final
approval of a plat as set forth in this section, the Township shall
not condition the issuance of building, grading, or other permits
relating to the erection or placement of improvements, including buildings,
upon the lots or land as depicted upon the final plat, upon actual
completion of the improvements depicted upon approved final plat.
Moreover, if said financial security has been provided, occupancy
permits for any building or buildings to be erected shall not be withheld
following: the improvement of the streets providing access to and
from existing public roads to such building or buildings to a mud-free
or otherwise permanently passable condition, as well as the completion
of all other improvements as depicted upon the approved plat, either
upon the lot or lots or beyond the lot or lots in question if such
improvements are necessary for the reasonable use of or occupancy
of the building or buildings. Any ordinance or statute inconsistent
herewith is hereby expressly repealed.
D. Three complete sets of all plans of subdivision which
will be titled "as-built drawings" including but not limited to drainage
and profile plans, showing thereon all approvals required by this
chapter and specifically approvals of as-built plans, and also three
like sets of plans on paper. Sheets which would duplicate in every
respect those submitted as the final plan may not be required.
E. A deed to all public property.
F. The fees or charges of the Clerk of the Court of Monroe
County on the petition and resolution of the Board of Supervisors
to the said court for its approval of its acceptance of the streets.
Upon receipt of the above six requirements,
and upon performance of all obligations by the owner to be performed
under the improvements agreement, the Board of Supervisors may proceed
to accept said street, drainage facilities and other improvements
in the manner provided with the Municipal Planning Code. The final profile plan drawings hereinabove referred to
shall show the centerline profile grades of the streets within the
subdivision as originally computed and designed and shown on the plans
referred to in and required by these regulations, and also the final
profile grades of said street after the construction thereof.
