Proposed streets shall be shown by providing
a minimum right-of-way width of 50 feet. Where it is determined by
the Commission that a street should be designed in a subdivision to
carry traffic from other areas or adjacent subdivisions, whether existing
or potential, a minimum of 60 feet shall be shown. Where a subdivision
is created fronting on an existing Town-maintained road, front lot
lines of a subdivision shall be established 25 or 30 feet from the
center of the existing Town-maintained road. Culs-de-sac shall terminate
in a circular area with a minimum right-of-way diameter of 100 feet.
Where there is a discrepancy between minimum
standards or dimensions noted herein and other official regulations,
the highest standards shall apply.
Subdivisions shall be designed to protect environmental
resource areas in accordance with the Environmental Resource Areas
Guidelines as published in Appendix A to the Environmental Resources
Element of the Hampstead Comprehensive Plan and as modified from time
to time.
The developer shall provide a wellhead buffer
easement for any portion of the subdivision within the wellhead buffer.
This area shall be preserved with an ownership arrangement acceptable
to the Town. The total wellhead buffer for a community wellhead shall
be a circular area having a minimum one-hundred-foot radius which
extends around any existing or proposed community water supply well
or well site, as may be designated on the adopted Water and Sewer
Master Plan or the Comprehensive Plan, or identified during the development
process, unless this configuration and/or size is specifically modified
by the Commission in its approval of the preliminary subdivision plan.
The wellhead buffer shall be shown on the preliminary plan and included
