A. Applicability. Construction plans must be submitted to the City Engineer for all existing or proposed streets, sidewalks, drainage and utility improvements, water quality controls, park improvements, and any other infrastructure or public improvements that are required or proposed to be constructed, reconstructed, improved, or modified to serve the development. Where the final plat is for property being developed in phases, the required construction plans must include the improvements specified in the general development plan or preliminary plat to serve the phase being platted. The construction plans are intended to provide for the detailed engineering drawings for all improvements required to serve the development. The construction plans must be kept as a permanent record of the City. The City Engineer as referenced in this Code is acting as agent for the City Manager, and shall have the powers specified in this Code only to the extent that the Engineer is expressly delegated those powers by the City Manager

The City assumes no project design or engineering responsibility. The subdivider’s professional engineer certifying the plans is responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the documents and the soundness of the designs as submitted for review and actual construction.
