It is the purpose of this article to impose upon developers the costs incurred by the City of Burlington in updating the municipal tax map/CAD database as a result of the approval of various subdivisions or the creation of any new lots within the City of Burlington. Said costs are directly related to the development procedure, and thereby the City of Burlington determines that they should be borne by the developer/applicant for all said subdivisions.
Each applicant and/or developer, for any approval which results in the creation of any new lots, revision of any existing lots and/or other alterations to the tax map/CAD database, shall be responsible for paying all reasonable charges incurred by the City's Engineer in updating said tax map/CAD database. These costs shall include, but not be limited to, update to the CAD database, revisions to existing tax map plates, creation/addition of new tax map plates, appropriate revisions to the Key Map(s), reprographic services for applicable City, county and state submission copies, as well as any reasonable shipping and handling fees involved.
Once final subdivision and/or new lot approval has been received, an escrow account shall be established by the applicant and maintained by the City of Burlington for the express purpose of maintaining the tax map/CAD database. No construction permit shall be issued until said costs are posted in accordance with the applicable fees detailed in the fee schedule located at § 146-17 of the Code of the City of Burlington.
A. 
If any portion of the escrow account remains unused following the appropriate revisions to the tax map/CAD database, it shall be refunded to the applicant.
B. 
In the event that any application for development is denied and the application is no longer pending before the respective board, then any portion of the aforementioned fee which has not been expended by the engineer responsible for maintaining the tax map/CAD database shall be refunded to the applicant.
In addition to the maintenance fees noted, each approved applicant must supply a map of the new subdivision or new lot in a scale suitable for inclusion on the City of Burlington's tax map/CAD database. Said map must be submitted in both electronic and hard copy formats and must be compliant with current New Jersey law regarding title recordation (N.J.S.A. 46:26B and N.J.A.C. 18:23A). All electronic file submissions must also conform to the City of Burlington's electronic files submission ordinance.
A. 
In addition to any/all hard copy submissions already required of all map and plan materials currently being submitted to the City of Burlington, a digital graphics file containing the data outlined in § 136-7 shall also be submitted with each project. All files must be submitted in a .dwg or .dxf file format.
B. 
All electronic files must be created in New Jersey State Plane Coordinate System North American Datum 1983 (NAD 83), in US Survey Feet.
C. 
All linework shall connect at line end points. Overlaps, gaps or dangles are not acceptable. Polygon objects, such as parcels or other boundaries, shall be created from line segments, connecting to adjacent linework at intersections. Single, closed polygons are not to be used where coincidental boundaries may occur. All text shall be clearly legible and not obscured by polygon boundaries/line work.
All digital files for proposed property upgrades/changes/improvements shall be submitted to the City of Burlington within 45 days of recordation of the final plat or parcel map. Upon acceptance of the improvements by the Land Development Board, the digital files for all public, private and site development, upgrades, changes and/or improvements shall be submitted by the originating party. These digital files shall contain all information as shown on the approved, hard copy plans, as well as any approved changes or revision, and any/all as-built information. Any proposed deviation from these guidelines shall be considered by the Land Development Board on a case-by-case basis only.
