(1) For the purposes of long-term planning for the city's overall transportation and utility network, Tipp City has established the requirements of this section related to the sizing and future expansion of such public improvements.
(2) All public improvements shall be installed to satisfy the service requirements for the service or drainage area in which the subdivision is located, and the public improvements shall be of sufficient capacity to handle the expected development of the overall service or drainage area involved, based on an evaluation by the City Engineer and/or City Utilities Director.
(3) The subdivider may be required to install oversized public improvements or public off-site improvements based on plans and policies of the city. See Chapter 50 of the Tipp City Codified Ordinances to determine applicability.
(4) In cases in which a proposed street or right-of-way, as shown on the Tipp City Thoroughfare Plan, abuts or crosses the proposed subdivision, the subdivider shall be responsible for all required public improvements, including the construction of the right-of-way as delineated on the Tipp City Thoroughfare Plan. Certain public improvements may be waived on review and approval by the Planning Board; however, right-of-way dedication shall be required in all cases.
(5) When developing along 1 side of an existing street or right-of-way which requires improvement as recommended in the Tipp City Thoroughfare Plan, the subdivider shall be responsible for 1 sidewalk, 1 curb, pavement widening to the recommended standard width of the applicable subdivision's side, all necessary adjustments to existing pavement, and storm drainage for the street, based on recommendations by the City Engineer and as approved by the Planning Board. Where sight distance or other engineering requirements make it imperative, the pavement adjustment responsibility shall include the replacement of up to the entire existing pavement.
