No building, zoning or sanitary permits shall be issued for erection of a structure on any lot not of record until the final plat or certified survey map has been executed by the Village Clerk as required by § 274-20 of this chapter and sanitary sewers and water mains have been installed to serve the building.
Construction of the improvements shall be in
accordance with standard Village specifications as a minimum. The
following final plans and accompanying construction specifications,
sealed by a professional engineer and approved by the Village Engineer,
are required before the final plat is approved. Any required plans
must be submitted at least 20 days before the final plat is submitted:
A.
Street plans and profiles showing typical section,
pavement design, existing and proposed grades, elevations and cross
sections of required improvements.
B.
Sanitary sewer plans and profiles showing the locations,
grades, sizes, elevations and materials of required facilities.
C.
Storm sewer plans and profiles showing the locations, grades, sizes, cross sections, elevations and materials of required facilities, complete with drainage study or computations. The study shall determine runoff volumes from the subdivision or land division, both prior to development and after development. The study shall follow the procedures of Chapter 13 of the Wisconsin Department of Transportation Facilities Development Manual.
D.
Water main plans and profiles showing the locations,
sizes, elevations and materials of required facilities.
E.
Erosion and sedimentation control plans showing those
structures required to retard the rate of runoff water and those grading
and excavating practices that will prevent erosion and sedimentation.
Such plans shall generally follow the guidelines and standards set
forth in the publication "Minimizing Erosion in Urbanizing Areas,"
as prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture, Soil Conservation
Service, 1972.

that erosion, siltation, sedimentation and washing are prevented,
in accordance with the plans and specifications approved by the Village
Board. In addition:
A.
Sod shall be laid in strips at those intervals necessary
to prevent erosion and at right angles to the direction of drainage.
B.
Temporary vegetation and mulching shall be used to
protect critical areas, and permanent vegetation shall be installed
as soon as practical.
C.
Construction at any given time shall be confined to
the smallest practical area for the shortest practical period of time.
D.
Sediment basins shall be installed and maintained
at all drainageways to trap, remove and prevent sediment and debris
from being washed outside the area being developed.
A.
The subdivider or land divider shall make every effort
to protect and retain all existing trees, shrubbery, vines and grasses
not actually lying in public roadways, drainageways, building foundation
sites, private driveways, soil absorption waste disposal areas, paths

Such trees are to be protected and preserved during
construction in accordance with sound conservation practices, including
the preservation of trees by well islands or retaining walls whenever
abutting grades are altered.

any work within the subdivision or land division, shall make arrangements
with the Village Board to provide for adequate Village inspection.
The Village Board shall approve all completed work prior to release
