§ 36-121. General provisions.

(a)

The design standards contained herein shall be considered minimum standards and subject to the provisions of variances granted within these regulations.

(b)

Any well-designed subdivision or land development means little to a prospective lot buyer until they can see actual physical transformation of raw land into lots with all necessary improvements provided. Likewise, a well-designed subdivision or land development is not an asset to any community until the necessary improvements have been installed. In order that prospective lot purchasers may obtain usable products and new subdivisions may be an asset rather than a liability to the community, the subdivider or developer shall install and/or pay for the improvements required by these regulations necessary to serve the subdivision or development prior to the approval of the final as-built plat.
