Developers shall pay cost at time of final platting for the installation of street name signs. For public improvements bordering between or paralleling two tracts of land under different ownership and there is participation required by both owners, the developer desiring to plat his land first must do the following: Obtain the necessary right-of-way or easement from the adjoining property owner or owners and must have adjoining property owner or owners to formally agree to pay for his portion of the improvements, or the first developer must make the improvements at his own expense. If the property owners being asked to participate in the improvements refuses to participate then the City may take the necessary steps to obtain the right-of-way or easement. Any developer desiring to plat his land first will pay to the City all costs involved in obtaining the right-of-way or easement. The City may then through a City-Developer Agreement with the first developer desiring to plat his land agree to recover from the owner or owners of the adjoining property an amount equal to their share plus six (6%) per cent interest 1-03 C. 1-04 C. 2-04 A(l) -- 2-04 A(2) 2-04 A(3) 2-05 B(7) & (4) per year. The City will recover this amount at such time the adjoining owners are ready to develop their property. The amount to be recovered for the first developer will be stated in a City-Developer Agreement. It will also state if six (6%) percent interest is to be recovered. Preliminary Plan Filing Fees shall be established as $25.00 per plan plus $0.60 per lot residential and $2.00 per acre for non-residential areas other than parks for which no fee is required. Final Plat Filing Fees shall be established as $25.00 per plat plus $0.60 per lot residential and $2.00 per acre for non-residential areas other than parks for which no fee is required. Inspection and Laboratory Fees shall be established as follows: The three (3%) percent inspection fee will be paid by the developer for all public improve- ments in all single family residential subdivisions. On other than single family residential subdivisions the fee shall be based on the following: Three (3%) percent on all public improvements of $9.00 per acre, whichever is the greater of the two. When any laboratory test shows a condition which does not meet specifications, the developer shall pay for all tests required by the City's Inspector to determine that the failing condition has been corrected. Where a street is designed as a collector of a thorough- fare by the City's Comprehensive Plan, the City will participate in single family residential areas only. The City will only participate on streets in excess of thirty six (361) foot width, to the extent of all costs in excess of those for a street width deemed as necessary for traffic patterns in area in question as determined by the City Engineer and City Manager. Where the land use dictates additional strength design or wider street section, no City participation is provided. Where the City requires additional width for esthetic value or other special conditions, the City will parti- cipate to the same extent as 2-04 A(l). Where this additional width for esthetic, or other special reasons, is at the request of the Developer, no participation is provided. The developer shall be required to install at his own expense all storm sewers and drainage structures. This policy is applicable to all drainage facilities other than the main channels of Mackey, Calloway, Walker, Fossil, Little Bear and Mesquite Branch Creeks. On these six water courses the developer shall be responsible for the excavation and improvement of the channel in an earthen condition in a manner approved by the City. After this improvement to proper section and slope in an earthen condition and a dedication of right-of-way to the City, the Developer shall be relieved from further maintenance responsibilities. 2-05 B(16) - Where bridges are required to be constructed on Collector Streets or Thoroughfares to conform with the Comprehensive Plan, the Developer shall be required to deposit with the City seventy five (75%) percent of the cost of the bridge. The City shall design and contract to construct the bridge. In the case of a bridge which connects two areas of different ownership, each owner shall be responsible for half of the sum stipulated as the Developer1s position above. The deposit of these bridge funds does not obligate the City to construct the facility at any certain time, but it does relieve the Developer of responsibility related to the funding of the project in question. PASSED AND ADOPTED by the City Council of the City of North Richland Hills, Texas, this 26th day of March, 1973. ATTEST: DONNA P~iE~ APPROVED : ~A~~
