The purpose of these regulations is to regulate
the construction of connections to Town roads, taking into consideration
storm drainage, future expansion and safe access.
It shall be unlawful for any person, firm, corporation
or municipality to make any type of connection with any Town road
without a permit, in writing, from the Town Superintendent of Highways.
To obtain a permit, an application must be made
in writing on the form provided and signed by the applicant undertaking
the work. If the application is made by a municipality, the application
shall be executed by its proper officers. In lieu of such execution,
the municipality may, by resolution, a certified copy of which shall
be filed with the town, designate an agent or officer to execute applications
for permits.
Wherever the word "Town" is used in these regulations,
it shall also mean the Town of Stony Point and/or the Town Superintendent
of Highways or his representatives.
Before construction of a driveway connection
may begin, the permittee shall arrange a field conference with the
Town at the site for the purpose of determining grades, drainage,
line, sight distance, etc., acceptable to the Town. The Town will,
at no expense to the permittee, install proper storm drainage facilities,
grade and pave, if necessary, the connection from the existing edge
of the pavement right-of-way line. Beyond this point the permittee
shall entirely construct the driveway, meeting the part constructed
by the Town as to line and grade.
The charge to be made by the Town for inspection
of any openings, pavement restoration and maintenance is $25 for each
inspection.
