The utilities, pavements, and other improvements required for the proposed subdivision shall, as determined by the Planning Commission, be designed over-size and with extensions provided to serve nearby land which is an integral part of the neighborhood service or drainage areas.
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 serve the proposed subdivision as determined by the Director with the approval of City Council. The City shall pay the difference between the cost of required improvements for the proposed subdivision and improvements required to service the surrounding areas.
If streets or utilities are not available at the boundary of the proposed subdivision, and if the Planning Commission finds that the extension across undeveloped areas would not be warranted as a special assessment to the intervening properties or as a municipal expense until some future time, the subdivider may be required, prior to approval of the final plat, to obtain necessary assessments or rights-of-way and to construct and pay for such extensions. Such improvements shall be available for connections by subdividers of adjoining land.
