[HISTORY: Adopted by the Township Committee of the Township of River
Vale 1-9-1969 (Ch. 80 of the 1967 Code). Amendments noted
where applicable.]
For all major subdivisions, the applicant shall arrange with the serving
utility for the underground installation of the utilities' distribution
supply lines and service connections and streetlighting facilities, in accordance
with the provisions of the applicable standard terms and conditions incorporated
as a part of its tariff as the same are then on file with the State of New
Jersey Board of Public Utility Commissioners and shall submit to the Planning
Board, prior to the granting of final approval, a written instrument from
each serving utility which shall evidence full compliance with the provisions
of this section; provided, however, that in such subdivisions, lots which
abut existing streets where overhead electric or telephone distribution supply
lines have theretofore been installed on any portion of the streets involved
may be supplied with electric and telephone service from such overhead lines
or extensions thereof, but the service connections from the utilities'
overhead lines shall be installed underground. Streetlighting facilities shall
be of a style and design compatible to the nature and design of the subdivision
and shall be approved by the Planning Board.
The Township Council may waive the aforesaid requirements upon recommendation
of the Board.
