L. Other required streets. Where a subdivision borders on or
contains a railroad right-of-way or a major street right-of-
way, the Planning Board may require a street ap-
proximately parallel to and on each side of such right-of-
way, at a distance suitable for the appropriate use of the
intervening land (as for park purposes in residential dis-
tricts, or for commercial or industrial purposes in ap-
propriate districts). Such distances shall also be deter-
mined with due regard for the requirements of approach
grades and future grade separations.

and location of fire hydrants and/or firewells shall be de-
termined by the Planning Board. In making such deter-
mination, the Planning Board may seek the recom-
mendation of the Commissioners of the Fire District in
which the proposed subdivision is located. Notwith-
standing the foregoing, upon request, the Planning Board,
upon written approval of the Superintendent of Highways
and the Town Board Highway Committee, may waive,
subject to appropriate conditions, such improvements as it
considers may be omitted without jeopardy to the public
health, safety and general welfare. Pedestrian easements
shall be improved as required by the Planning Board. Such
grading and improvements shall be approved as to design
and specifications by the Town Superintendent of High-
ways and the Town Board Highway Committee. [Amended

nections to the property line of each lot within the sub-
division for such required utilities before the street is
paved. Such underground utilities shall be located within
the sidewalk area. [Amended 5-8-73]

impractical the inclusion of utilities within the street
rights-of-way, perpetual unobstructed easements at least
• twenty (20) feet in width shall be otherwise provided with
satisfactory access to the street. Wherever possible
easements shall be continuous from block to block and
shall present as few irregularities as possible. Such
