(A) Improvement plans. When improvements are required by the Commission for existing public streets or drainage, improvement plans shall be submitted to the Engineering Division for review and approval. Improvement plans, standards, and inspection fees shall conform to the requirements of this chapter, unless a specific exception is granted by the Council. Before a lot is sold, a parcel map filed, or a building permit issued, the improvements shall either be completed or an agreement shall be executed with the city to complete the improvements within one year. An agreement shall be secured by a bond in the amount of the estimated costs of the improvements. Improvement plans shall comply with the provisions of Articles 4, 6, and 7 of this chapter.
(B) Scope. The requirements and standards specified in this article shall apply to all improvements.
(C) Time limits for improvements. Required improvements shall be constructed within one year after the approval of the minor subdivision map. An additional period of one year may be granted by the City Engineer where extenuating circumstances exist that prevent the completion of the improvements. If the improvements are not completed within the time allowed, the city may, on approval of the Council, use the money from the cash deposit or enforce the surety bond to accomplish the completion of the improvements in accordance with the improvement plans on file.
(D) Requests for exceptions. Requests for exceptions may be made as provided in Article 8 of this chapter.
