§ A206-7. Preparation and submission of street plans.  


Latest version.
  • A. 
    A plan of the proposed street shall be prepared by a qualified professional engineer or qualified land surveyor licensed by the State of New York. The plan shall clearly define the limits of the proposed right-of-way by metes and bounds and shall include the location, widths, profiles and grades of the proposed roadway, including the length, radius, point of curve and point of tangency of all curves therein, storm drainage, including culverts and other drainage structures, and the location of all easements and utilities. The plans shall also indicate the owner of the property and the name of the developer if other than the owner. The map shall also have a location plan showing the road location in the Town. One copy each of the plans shall be submitted to the Town Superintendent of Highways and/or the Town Engineer at the time of application to make such road a Town road, and to the Ulster County Commissioner of Public Works when said proposed street drains toward, intersects or may otherwise affect a county highway. It will then be submitted to the Town Planning Board for review and approval under the applicable subdivision regulations of the Town. Such roadway must not be subject to any right or easement which will in any way interfere with its use as a road at all times. Such roadway must be granted to the Town by a full covenant and warranty deed containing the correct metes and bounds description as shown on the approved map, which deed must be in such form as may be required to entitle the same to be recorded in the office of the County Clerk of Ulster County, and the filing fees must be paid by the applicant.
    B. 
    Permanent and temporary easements must be furnished in said deed granting to the Town the right to maintain all outlets for surface water or natural stream drainage which will run from such roadway over private property to a point where a natural watercourse exists and to which such outlet and easement will carry such water. A minimum of 20 feet width of easement shall be required for the maintenance of said easements.
    C. 
    The proposed roadway must be constructed to conform to the minimum requirements and standards set forth below. The minimum width to be cleared shall include all scrub trees, rock formations, buildings, walls and any such things that would endanger those using such roadway. The removal of such obstructions shall be borne by the person or firm proposing such road.
