The cost of all road construction including the upgrading of a private way for public acceptance shall be paid by the applicant.

Sec. B.3. - Brunswick Landing Street Standards.

All private streets in the Brunswick Landing area shall conform to the provisions of the Subsection 4.8.1.A. and Appendix B.2 (Private Street Standards) except as provided for in this Subsection.

All streets proposed for public dedication shall be designed and constructed in accordance with Article VI of the Brunswick Code of Ordinances, Street Acceptance and Standards Ordinance, as amended.

B.3.1. Existing Streets.

The Planning Board may approve a subdivision or development proposal that includes a private street that existed as of the date of adoption of this subsection even if the existing private street does not conform to the requirements of Subsection 4.8.1.A, Appendix 2, and this subsection including, but not limited to, the standards for minimum right-of-way width, minimum pavement width, and minimum distance between intersections, if the Planning Board finds that the layout and design of the private street conforms to the standards to the maximum extent practical and will provide for safe traffic movement and emergency access given the anticipated use of the private street.

B.3.2. On-Street Parking.

The design of public and private streets in the GM7 district located on the former BNAS lands must provide for on-street parking where such parking is practical and consistent with the overall street network. In other zoning districts, the provision of on-street parking is encouraged where appropriate.
