A person who subdivides property shall install sidewalks in a subdivision in accordance with state and federal accessibility standards and the Transportation Criteria Manual. A preliminary subdivision plan and a final plat must indicate the location of a proposed sidewalk.

(B)

The platting board may waive the requirement to install a sidewalk based on criteria in the Transportation Criteria Manual.

(C)

The platting official may approve the construction of a sidewalk on only one side of a street if the platting official determines that the limiting sidewalk construction to one side of the street is necessary to make the street buildable in compliance with state and federal standards for access by disabled persons.

(D)

A sidewalk that is indicated on a recorded plat or approved site plan shall be installed in conjunction with the installation of a type 1 or type 2 driveway approach.

(E)

Until a sidewalk required under this division is installed:

(1)

the single office may not issue a certificate of compliance; and

(2)

the city building official may not issue a certificate of occupancy, if required.

(F)

The construction of a sidewalk or driveway approach is not complete until all utility connections are complete and a cut required by the utility installation is restored.
