SHARED IMPROVEMENT COSTS
The utilities, pavement and other land improvements required for the proposed subdivision shall be designed of over-size and/or with extensions provided to serve nearby land which is an integral part of the neighborhood service or drainage area, as determined by the City Council and the City Engineer.
(Prior Code, § 10.1)
Minimum street pavement widths shall conform to the standards set by the City Council. Where pavement widths greater than the standards are deemed necessary by the City Engineer and approved by the City Council, the city shall bear the extra cost of providing a greater than minimum pavement width required by the standards. The subdivider shall be required to pay for only that part of the construction costs for the arterial streets, trunk sewers or water lines which are serving the proposed subdivision as determined by the city and the City Engineer. The city shall pay the difference between the cost of required improvements for the proposed subdivision and improvements required to service the surrounding areas, as specified herein.
(Prior Code, § 10.2)
If street or utilities are not available at the boundary of a proposed subdivision, and if the Council finds the extensions across undeveloped areas would not be warranted as a special assessment to the intervening properties or as a city expense until some future time, the subdivider may be required, prior to the approval of the final plat, to obtain necessary easements or right-of-way and construct and pay for the extensions. The improvements shall be available for connections by subdividers of adjoining land.
(Prior Code, § 10.4)
