(a) The developer of a cluster area shall submit to the City Engineer for his approval, the detailed design of all improvements of a cluster area, to include the pavement, storm sewers, sanitary sewers, water mains, sidewalks and gas, electric, telephone, cable, or other utility lines. This submission shall conform to the requirements of the City Engineer and Council for plans and specifications with respect to the construction and material standards for all pavement and utility installations within the City.
(b) Utility improvements in a cluster area, if approved by the Planning Commission and City Engineer, need not be installed in a dedicated right of way. In all instances where such improvements are not installed in a dedicated right of way and the operation and maintenance of such utilities are to be performed by the City or other public utility, the owner shall grant permanent easements to the City and/or the appropriate public utility, in a form satisfactory to the Law Department and City Engineer, providing for access to the utilities by the City and/or other utility companies.
(c) All streets in the single-family detached portion of a development area must be offered for the dedication to the City. The Planning Commission may, however permit rights of way and pavement dimensions of less than the minimum requirements set forth in the City's Subdivision Regulations, if approved by the City Engineer and Council. The procedures and requirements for the dedication of streets in a single-family detached and cluster development shall meet all other standards set forth in the Subdivision Regulations.
