1. Approval of a preliminary subdivision plat shall not be granted until such time as the applicant has provided information, to the satisfaction of the City Engineer, to establish that adequate public facilities exist in the areas affected by the development to accommodate the development. 2. The public facilities to which the preceding paragraph applies shall include the following: a. The City culinary water system, including quantity, quality, treatment, storage capacity, transmission capacity, and distribution capacity. b. The electric power system, including generation, transformation, transmission, and distribution. c. Streets and roads, which may include sidewalks, curb and gutter. 3. If the City Engineer determines that adequate public facilities are not available and will not be available by the time of final plat recordation, so as to assure that adequate public services are available at the time of occupancy, the developer will be advised that they shall either complete the improvements before the plat is recorded or post a performance guarantee. 4. The applicant shall follow the procedures set forth in Utah Code Ann. §73-1-15.5, as it may be amended from time to time, in contacting any applicable irrigation company whose facilities will be affected by the development. The applicant is to follow the requirements of said section in piping, improving, or relocating any irrigation facilities. Construction plans, in compliance with said section, shall be submitted with the application. The applicant is to provide a certificate of compliance that satisfies the City Engineer that it is compliant with the law. Existing irrigation ditches located on the site or adjacent to a property boundary, within ten feet, shall be treated in accordance with this section. Ditches shall be piped with a sufficient size pipe to handle the irrigation need or, if approved by the Development Review Committee, an opaque fence or wall shall be constructed to screen the ditch from lots within the plat. Fences and walls shall be placed on a lot line or parcel line, which shall be two feet from the tow of the ditch embankment. Any land between the fence or wall and the ditch may not be included within lots. Such land shall be maintained by the owner or may be dedicated to the City. Piping shall be coordinated with the City Engineer and the irrigation company or ditch owner by following the provisions of Utah Code Ann. §73-1-15.5, unless otherwise approved by the City Engineer.

The City Engineer may waive this requirement for areas zoned commercial or industrial. Applicant is responsible for the protection of irrigation ditches and facilities from damage resulting from the development work.
