These requirements shall apply to all non-residential developments in the city:
(A) In instances where land is required for trail construction in accordance with the city’s Trails Master Plan, the city shall have the right to require the land dedication for approval on the final plat, or to refuse same.
(B) The city shall have the right to require construction of the trail in accordance with the city’s Trails Master Plan standards for trail construction. In instances where a sidewalk and hike/bike trail are in the same location, the hike/bike trail shall replace the sidewalk. If the applicant/developer constructs the hike and bike trail, the hike and bike trail layout and construction plans must be reviewed and approved by the Director prior to approval and release of the construction documents by the city. The hike and bike trail construction must be accepted by the Director and be completed in conjunction with all other public improvements/infrastructure approved by the city for release of the building permit. All improvements or construction on or within the dedicated land to be installed by the applicant/developer shall be completed in accordance with the approved construction plans. Where retaining walls are constructed adjacent to existing or future hike and bike trails and/or hike and bike trail rights-of-way, the developer/builder shall construct the retaining wall with a subdrain system behind the wall and under the trail and/or trail rights-of-way to prevent concentrated weep hole drainage. No concentrated run-off (swales or drainage structure outfalls) will be allowed to cross over the hike and bike trail rights-of-way. Finished projects shall be maintainable and acceptable as determined by the city.
