vii. Provide for adequate control of storm water runoff to prevent soil erosion, such as silt fences.
This includes applying for a Notice of Intent (NOI) for storm water discharges associated with
construction activity under the National Discharge Elimination System. A copy of the NOI
along with the Storm water Pollution Prevention Plan must be filed with the Zoning
Administrator.
viii. Provide for adequate disposal of construction refuse. No construction refuse will be allowed to
be stored, maintained or kept in the open on any lot, tract or parcel.
ix. Three copies of a properly executed written agreement by the developer to undertake and
complete, to the satisfaction of the City, all public improvements required as a condition for
approval of the plat. The agreement shall also set out the time limit for the completion of the
specified work, the amount of surety bond to be posted as security for satisfactory completion
of the work, and the right of the City, in the event the required work is not completed in a
proper or timely manner, to perform or complete the work and recover the actual cost thereof
from the developer or the developer's sureties. (Ord. 2002-31)
The developer's agreement for public improvements will set out the public improvements
required and also set out or incorporate by appropriate references, the plans and specifications
for said improvements. The developer's agreement and bond for required public improvements
shall be reviewed and approved as to the form and content by the City Engineer and the City
Attorney.
x. Assurance of construction of public improvements to be dedicated to the City shall be made in
the form of performance and maintenance bonds or by the creation of a benefit district.
Prior to the issuance of the building permit for the first lot in the subdivision, the developer
shall submit a performance and maintenance bond, in an amount to be determined by the
Public Works Director, to ensure that public improvements, streetlights, sidewalks and trails,
street trees, neighborhood amenities, and landscaping identified within the master landscape
fence / screening plan will be installed, approved, and maintained after completion of the
development. The developer may submit separate bonds from contractors for applicable public
improvements, including streets, storm sewers and drainage systems, sanitary sewers, water
distribution systems and landscaping. Said bond(s) shall be to the favor of the City and shall be
furnished at the time construction plans are submitted for approval. The amount of the bond(s)
shall be for the full cost of the improvements and shall remain in effect for two (2) years from
the date of completion and acceptance by the Governing Body of the City. Separate bonds
may be presented for separate improvements as defined by the Public Works Director. Said
bonds shall be properly executed prior to any grading or construction and shall be released
upon written approval of the Public Works Director. No building permit shall be issued for a
lot or tract in a subdivision which abuts a public improvement for which a bond has not been
furnished. No occupancy permit shall be issued for any such building in a subdivision until a
project completion certificate is issued by the Public Works Director.
As an alternative to providing performance and maintenance bonds to assure the construction
of public improvements, the developer may present a petition to the Governing Body for
creation of a benefit district as a means of guaranteeing the installation of public improvements.
This alternative may be utilized only if the following conditions are met:
• The petition is presented on forms secured from the City Benefit District Coordinator or on
