is surfaced to facilitate later installation of the necessary cable
to serve such subdivision or portions thereof. The installation of
conduit shall be in lieu of direct installation of the underground
cable. Plans indicating the proposed location of all gas, electrical
power and telephone distribution and transmission lines required to
service the plat shall be approved by the Director of Public Works.

all streets proposed to be dedicated a street sign of a design approved
by the Director of Public Works, and the cost of such signs and installation

final plat or certified survey or prior to the issuance of a certificate
of occupancy for a planned development project, install plantings
or provide for such plantings in the developer's agreement, guaranteed
by bond or letter of credit in an amount determined by the City Engineer,
in which the developer agrees to provide such plantings. The plantings
