A. Submission of plan. The developer of any subdivision, whether residential or nonresidential in character, shall submit a plan for a system of pedestrian ways or walkways to the Planning Commission at the time of preliminary plat submission.
B. Delineation of system and provision for focal point approaches and circulation. Such pedestrian way plan shall delineate the provision of adequate pedestrian ways within any subdivision or portion thereof, with consideration given to walkway connections in areas adjacent to or outside of the subdivision. Pedestrian approaches to such focal points as school sites, recreation areas, and parks shall be provided for in addition to pedestrian ways for normal circulation.
C. Provision for future connections. The Planning Commission, after reviewing the plan, may require that any or all of the pedestrian ways indicated in the plan be constructed and suitably surfaced to connect with existing or future walkways in the area and provide for adequate pedestrian circulation.
D. Design and location. Pedestrian ways shall be designed and located in accordance with the provisions in Section 94-176 and the following provisions:
1. Minimum paving section, where sidewalks are required, shall be four (4) feet in width;
2. Pedestrian ways shall be located within the dedicated, non-pavement right-of-way of all roads;
3. Concrete curbs shall be required for all roads where pedestrian ways are required by the Planning Commission; and

The following provisions apply to bikeways within subdivisions regulated by this chapter:
A. Bikeways shall be classified as follows:
1. Class I is a completely separated right-of-way designated for the exclusive use of bicycles;
2. Class II is a restricted right-of-way designated for the exclusive or semi-exclusive use of bicycles with through travel by motor vehicles not allowed; or
3. Class III is a shared right-of-way designated as such by signs placed in posts or on the pavement.
B. The Planning Commission may require, at the time of submission of the sketch plat, that the developer prepare a plan for the design and construction of a system of bikeways within the proposed subdivision.
C. In requiring such a system, the Planning Commission shall not allow the use of Class III bikeways.
D. A proposed bikeway plan may be required by the Planning Commission when there are existing natural or manmade features which would effectively complement or provide linkage or routes for such bikeways, in particular park areas and school sites.
E. Minimum design width for Class I bikeways shall depend on the number of lanes, with each line requiring a minimum of four (4) feet of bikeway width.
F. Where Class I bikeways are required, bikeway surfaces shall be of asphalt.
G. Additional considerations for bikeway construction shall include:
1. Physical barriers between automobile traffic and bicycle lanes are safer than painted lines;
2. Bicycle lanes at major intersections should shift away from the roadway rather than merge directly onto the road, whenever possible; and
3. Adequate provisions should be made for drainage without creating safety hazards for bicyclists due to drainage grates.
H. Additional specific criteria, as may be established by the Planning Commission, shall be considered when bikeways are required or proposed.
(Code 1991, § 12-480)
A. Preservation of features generally. Existing natural features which would add value to residential development, such as trees, watercourses, etc., shall be considered for preservation in the design of the subdivision. No trees shall be removed from any proposed subdivision nor any change of grade of the land made until the Planning Commission and the City Council have both approved the preliminary plat.
B. Preserved trees noted on sketch plan. All trees, etc., to be preserved shall be shown on the preliminary sketch plan.
C. Protection of trees. All trees, where required, shall be welled and protected against change of grade.
D. Review and approval of new trees. New trees or landscaping to be provided by the developer shall be subject to review and approval by the Planning Commission, in accordance with the City's beautification policies and plans.
E. Park, open space, and natural feature applications. Applicable provisions of Chapter 122 of the City's Code of Ordinances, as well as Section 94-179, shall be considered.

A. Installation in accordance with standards and specifications. The developer shall install water lines and fire hydrants in accordance with the standards and specifications of these and other applicable regulations. In no case shall the use of flexible PVC pipe be permitted.
B. Provision of adequate supply. Action shall be taken by the developer to extend or create a water supply district for the purpose of providing a water supply system capable of providing domestic water use and fire protection. This system shall provide an adequate supply of potable water to every lot in the subdivision.
C. Fire hydrant installation. Fire hydrants shall be required for all subdivisions except those approved for low-density zoning districts in which individual wells are to be used. Fire hydrants shall be located no more than six hundred (600) feet apart and within five hundred (500) feet of any structure and shall be approved by the City Manager. To eliminate future street openings, all underground utilities for fire hydrants, together with the fire hydrants themselves, and all other supply improvements shall be installed before any final paving of a street shown on the subdivision plat.
D. Installation where public water already accessible. Where a public water main is accessible, the developer shall install adequate water facilities, including fire hydrants, subject to the specifications of State or City requirements. All water mains shall be at least six (6) inches in diameter.
E. Approval of extensions. Water main extensions shall be approved by the appropriate government agencies.
F. Inclusion of location on preliminary plat and cost in bond. To facilitate the above, the location of all fire hydrants, all water supply improvements, and the boundary lines of proposed districts, indicating all improvements proposed to be served, shall be shown on the preliminary plat and the cost of installing the same shall be included in the performance bond to be furnished by the developer.
G. Water systems for low-density districts. In subdivisions approved by the Planning Commission for low-density zoning districts, if a public water system is not available, individual wells may be used or a central water system provided in such a manner that an adequate supply of potable water will be available to every lot in the subdivision. Water samples shall be submitted to the State Health Department for its approval, and individual wells and central water systems shall be approved by the State Health Department.
H. Arrangement for public water connections. If the Planning Commission requires that a connection to a public water main be eventually provided as a condition to approval of an individual well or central water system, the applicant shall make arrangements including the provision of necessary easements for future water service at the time the plat receives final approval. Performance or cash bonds may be required to ensure compliance.
