§ 184-69. Developer's agreements; restoration guarantees.

A developer's agreement shall be required for all applications involving infrastructure as set forth in § 184-70, off-tract improvements as set forth in § 184-71, or site grading in accordance with the following provisions:

A. 

Prior to any construction and coincident with the furnishing of the performance guarantee by the developer, the developer shall enter into a developer's agreement with the Borough incorporating all of the terms and conditions of approval as required by the Board.

B. 

At the discretion of the Borough, the developer may be required to provide a restoration guarantee as part of the agreement that can be used by the Borough to restore the property to a safe condition in the event that the developer abandons the development project. The intent of such guarantee is to ensure that the property in its unfinished development state does not adversely affect the public safety or adversely impact the environment.

No cutting of trees or vegetation, with the exception of routine property maintenance as prescribed by Chapter 224, Property Maintenance, and no excavation, earth moving or installation of infrastructure shall be permitted until said developer's agreement is executed between the Borough and the developer.

D. 

No Borough official shall sign the plan of an approved subdivision, site plan or variance plan until any required developer's agreement has been executed, the form and amount of any performance guarantee has been approved and received, the required deposit for inspection fees has been received, and until all conditions precedent to approval have been satisfied, and any other special terms and conditions have been met.
