(A) Requirements for underground wiring. The proprietor shall make arrangements for all lines for telephone, electric, television and other similar services distributed by wire or cable to be placed underground entirely throughout a subdivided area, except for major thoroughfare right-of-way, and such conduits or cables shall be placed within private easements provided to such service companies by the developer or within dedicated public ways, provided only that overhead lines may be permitted upon written recommendation of the Engineer, Planner, Planning Commission, and the approval of the City Commission 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. 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’s Public Service Commission. All drainage and underground utility installations which traverse privately owned property shall be protected by easements granted by the proprietor.
(B) Sewage disposal. A sanitary sewer system including all appurtenances shall be required in all subdivisions which shall connect and outlet into a city sanitary sewer system.
(C) Water supply. A water supply system including appurtenances shall be required in all subdivisions which shall be connected to a city water supply system.
(D) Storm drainage system. An adequate storm drainage system including necessary storm sewers, catch basins, manholes, culverts, bridges, and other appurtenances shall be required in all subdivisions. Adequate provision shall be made for proper drainage of storm water run-off from residential rear yards. Each yard shall be self-contained and shall be drained from rear to front except where topography or other natural features require otherwise.
