The developer may be required to submit to the approving authority, prior to the granting of final approval, a written instrument from each serving utility which shall evidence full compliance or intended full compliance with the provisions of this section; provided, however, lots which abut existing streets where overhead electric or telephone distribution supply lines and service connections have heretofore been installed may be supplied with electric and telephone service utilities overhead. In the case of existing overhead utilities, should a road widening, or an extension of service, or other such condition occur as a result of the development and necessitate the placement, relocation or extension of overhead lines, such new facilities shall be installed underground.
