slopes more than approximately 2%, either contours at an interval
of not more than five feet if ground slope is regular and such information
is sufficient for planning purposes or contours at an interval of
not more than two feet if necessary because of irregular land or need
for more detailed data for preparing plans and construction drawings
shall be shown.
F.

bore locations are to be submitted to the Town Engineer for approval
prior to the borings being performed.

and gradient of ground slope, including any embankments or retaining
walls, character and location of buildings, railroads, power lines,

shall refer to the subdivision plat by name, recordation date and

photographs shall be labeled with camera locations, directions of
view, and key numbers.
