Whenever reasonably possible, all Planned Residential Developments shall provide for underground installation of utilities (including electricity and telephone) in both public ways and private extensions thereof.

Utilities and maintenance of facilities shall be in accordance with the requirements and regulations of the appropriate municipal authority having jurisdiction thereof. A development application shall not be approved unless adequate assurance is given that public or quasi-public water and sanitary sewer service will be available, except that upon application by the developer, and good cause shown, the plan commission with approval of the city council may modify or waive this requirement, provided that such action is consistent with the spirit and intent of this section.
      (C)   Pedestrian circulation.
