In cases where a builder or developer desires to install sewers, laterals and building sewers to every housing unit within a housing development prior to their industrial sale, he shall meet all conditions set forth in this section and in other sections of these rates, rules and regulations. Plot plans for such a development must be submitted to the Township, which must include a provision for a maintenance bond protecting the Township and the Authority against defects for two years subsequent to completion, in an amount not less than 20% of the cost of installation, and must also include a covenant to convey to the Authority the sewers so constructed, other than building sewers, when said sewers are connected to the sewer system. Said plans must be approved by the Township and the Authority prior to any construction. Sewer plans conforming to all original specifications established by the Township, as to type of pipe, location of mains, size of pipe, grades, methods of laying pipe and the type and construction of all necessary appurtenances, must be prepared, be approved by the Township and the Authority and have approval obtained from the necessary state agencies. The engineering fees and charges for permits will be paid by the builder or developer. In no case will lesser standards than exist in the sewer system, presently to be constructed and as outlined in these rates, rules and regulations, be permitted for any future extensions. Upon approval of such plans by the Township and the Authority, the extensions may be constructed by and at the expense of the builder or developer, but only with the inspection of an inspector designated by the Township. The cost of such inspection, including salaries and expenses, shall be borne by the builder or developer making the extensions.
