The subdivider shall be responsible for the
maintenance of the subdivision in good order from the time of granting
of preliminary approval to a time two years after acceptance of improvements
by the Borough. The site shall be kept free of all debris, including
rocks, boulders and dead trees. All areas affected by erosion and
landslides shall be repaired. All performance and maintenance bonds
required by this chapter shall be calculated to include these items.
Prior to release of the performance bond called for in §§ 530-40 through 530-45, the subdivider shall file with the Borough Engineer as-built drawings, in ink, on tracing cloth, to such scale as required by the Borough Engineer, accurately showing the location, profile, size and appurtenances of all storm drains, catch basins, sanitary sewers and water mains and all utilities, including service connections, constructed within the subdivision. Upon submission of the as-built tracings to the Borough Engineer and upon the improvements being completed, installed and accepted by the Borough, the performance bond shall be released when a maintenance bond, in a form acceptable to the Borough Attorney, in the amount of 10% of a minimum of $1,000 of the performance bond is posted. The bond shall run for two years from the date of posting.
The subdivider shall be responsible for snow
removal on streets within the subdivision until acceptance by the
Borough of the streets. All performance and maintenance bonds required
by this chapter shall be calculated to include this item.
The subdivider shall, prior to the issuance
of a certificate of occupancy, have permanent stakes implanted at
the corners of each lot within each subdivision by a licensed land
surveyor.
If the subdivider in extraordinary circumstances
can clearly demonstrate that, because of peculiar conditions pertaining
to his/her land, the literal enforcement of one or more of these rules,
regulations and standards would not promote the public health, safety,
convenience and general welfare, then the Planning Board may relax
such rules, regulations and standards as shall be reasonable under
the circumstances without violating the general purpose and intent
of this chapter.
In the event of any conflict in this chapter
with any provisions of any state statute, the provisions of the state
statute shall prevail.
