(a) Where the proprietor/subdivider elects to provide greenbelts and/or constructs decorative or other improved entranceways, financial or other guarantees shall be made to the City Council to ensure continued upkeep and maintenance of all improvements. Such guarantees may consist of a deed restriction or covenant which requires all future purchasers of lots in the subdivision or condominium to belong to a homeowners association and to pay an annual fee adequate to maintain and upkeep the improvements to their original condition. Failure to provide adequate funds to accomplish this to the satisfaction of the City Council shall empower the city to carry out the improvements and upkeep and to make such assessments as are required to pay the costs incurred to the city against the owner of the lots contained within the subdivision or condominium.
(b) Each entranceway to any newly developed condominium or subdivision development shall have no less than two street lights installed, which meet the theme, standards and style of those installed along the South Saginaw Street (downtown) Streetscape Project. All costs for the initial installation shall be the responsibility of the developer. After the installation, all maintenance costs shall be the responsibility of the city.
