Sec. 20.5-95. Construction standards.

(a) Unless otherwise specifically provided in this chapter, construction of all subdivision streets shall be in conformance with department of transportation requirements.

(b) Subdivision street cross-sections shall be based on the load bearing capacities of soils located within proposed street rights-of-way as detailed in a subsurface soils report, certified by a geotechnical engineer. The agent may, however, upon the recommendation of the department of transportation, waive or modify this requirement when there is sufficient cause to believe that such a report is unnecessary.

(c) Street construction plans shall be submitted to and approved by both the department of transportation and the county as a part of the review process required by this chapter.
