§ 5.03 Sidewalks and Trails<br />
(a) Applicability. This section is intended to ensure pedestrian access is available to serve uses<br />
that need and benefit from such access. Builders shall be required to construct sidewalks and trails<br />
in accordance with the Major Streets and Future <strong>Land</strong> <strong>Use</strong> Plan, on all streets adjacent to their<br />
building sites in all zoning districts. No Certificate <strong>of</strong> Occupancy shall be issued until the<br />
requirements <strong>of</strong> this section are met.<br />
If a builder or property owner has reason to believe a proposed use does not need or benefit from<br />
pedestrian access, a written request for interpretation per Section 2.03 <strong>of</strong> this Chapter may be<br />
submitted to the <strong>Town</strong> Planner describing the use and explaining why pedestrian access should not<br />
be required as a condition <strong>of</strong> the building permit for the proposed use.<br />
(b) Sidewalk construction standards. Sidewalks shall be five feet (5') in width in the B-1,<br />
Business District; or eight feet (8') in width if installed adjacent to a curb. Sidewalks shall be four<br />
feet (4') in width in the all other districts. The construction specification <strong>of</strong> sidewalks will conform<br />
with <strong>Town</strong> specifications for streets on file with the <strong>Town</strong> Engineer and <strong>Town</strong> Clerk.<br />
(c) Trails construction standards. Trails in the <strong>Town</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Norwood</strong> may be designed<br />
specifically as for horseback riding, hiking, mountain biking, nordic skiing or any combination<br />
