(a) Requirements for Underground Wiring. The subdivider shall make arrangements for all lines for public utility services distributed by facilities such as wire or cable to be placed underground entirely throughout a newly subdivided area, except for major or secondary thoroughfare rights-of-way, and such conduits or cables shall be placed within private easements provided to such public utility service companies by the developer; provided, however, that overhead lines may be permitted within the limits of said newly subdivided area upon approval of the City Planning Commission and City Council at the time of final plat approval where it is determined that overhead lines will not constitute a detriment to the health, safety, general welfare, plat design and character of the subdivision. In the event that a public utility company foresees practical difficulties in complying with the requirements of this section, such company may petition the City Planning Commission and City Council for a variance. All such facilities placed in dedicated public ways shall be planned so as not to conflict with other underground utilities. All such facilities shall be constructed in accordance with standards of construction approved by the State. All drainage and underground public utility installations which traverse privately owned property shall be protected by easements granted by the subdivider.
(b) Street name signs shall be provided at all street intersections and shall be of a type approved by the City and shall be placed according to current specifications on file in the office of the City Engineer. Traffic regulations signs, as may be required, will be located as required by City Council.
(c) Street lighting of a type approved by the City shall be provided in all subdivisions.
(d) A street planting plan shall be submitted to the City for review by the City Tree Commission.
Upon receipt of the Tree Commission's recommendations, the City Planning Commission shall review the plan as part of the subdivision approval process. All trees planted shall be in accordance with the provisions of any applicable laws or regulations.
(e) Monuments consisting of steel pins one inch in diameter and not less than thirty inches in length shall be placed at all angle points, points of curves in streets and at intermediate points as required by the City, and at all lot corners.
(f) Permanent monuments consisting of a one-inch steel rod thirty inches in length with a surveyor's identification cap shall be placed at all block corners and at the intersections of all subdivision boundary lines.
(g) The subdivider shall enter into an agreement with the City containing a restriction upon the plat whereby the City's Zoning Inspector will not be permitted to issue a zoning certificate for any structure upon any lot within such subdivision until the improvements have been made with the City for the completion of such improvements. These plat restrictions shall be made a part of all deeds or contracts for any lot within the subdivision.
