A. 
The arrangement, character, extent, width, grade and location of all streets shall conform to all official maps, and may be required to conform to Master Plans, and shall be related to: existing and planned streets, topographic conditions; existing natural features including streams, lakes and tree growth; public convenience and safety; existing and proposed uses of land served by such streets, and to the most advantageous development of adjoining uses.
B. 
The arrangement of streets in a subdivision shall provide, where possible, for the continuation or appropriate projection of existing or proposed collector and arterial streets in the area.
C. 
Local streets shall be laid out so as to discourage their use by through traffic.
D. 
Where a subdivision abuts or contains an existing or proposed arterial street, the Village may require marginal access streets, reverse frontage lots with screen planting contained in a non-access reservation along the rear of the property line, or such other treatment as may be necessary for adequate protection of residential properties and to afford separation of through and local traffic.
E. 
The number of intersections along arterial streets shall be held to a minimum. Whenever practicable, the distance between such intersections shall be not less than 1,200 feet.
F. 
Where a subdivision borders on or contains a railroad right-of-way or limited access highway right-of-way, the Village may require a street approximately parallel to and on each side of such right-of-way, at a distance suitable for the appropriate use of the intervening land. Such distances shall also be determined with regard for the requirements of approach trades and future grade separation.
G. 
Street jogs with center line offsets of less than 150 feet shall be avoided.
H. 
A tangent at least 100 feet long shall be introduced between reverse curves on arterial and collector streets.
I. 
Streets shall be laid out so as to intersect at right angles. The side streets which approach at an angle shall intersect the through street with not less than 15 feet of tangent right-of-way between the end of curvature and the right-of-way of the street being intersected. The intersections of the right-of-way line at intersecting streets shall be made using curves with a minimum radius of 20 feet. Exceptions may be approved by the Village Engineer where severe physical limitations make compliance an extreme hardship.
J. 
Reserve strips controlling access to streets shall be prohibited except where their control is definitely placed in the Village under conditions approved by the Village.
K. 
All streets rights-of-way shall be the width specified on the Master Plan and Official Map, or if not specified therein, they shall not be less than the width specified herein. The minimum radius of curvature on the center line and the maximum street grade shall be as specified herein.

M. 
The design of the vertical alignment of the center line shall be based on the minimum safe stopping sight distance in accordance with the design standards of the American Association of State Highway Officials.
N. 
Culs-de-sac shall not exceed 1,000 feet in length and shall provide a turnaround with a minimum right-of-way radius of 50 feet.
O. 
Dead-end streets shall not be permitted without a suitable turnaround. Appropriate arrangements shall be made for those parts of temporary turnarounds outside of street right-of-way to revert to the abutting property owners at such time as streets shall be extended.
P. 
In commercial and industrial districts, alleys or other definite and assured provisions shall be made for off-street parking, loading and service access consistent with and adequate for the uses proposed. The width of alleys shall be not less than 24 feet. Alleys shall not be permitted in residential areas.
Q. 
Half streets shall be prohibited except where necessary for continuity of the street plan in the area.
R. 
Street names.
(1) 
The Village may disapprove the name of any street shown on the plat which has already been used elsewhere in the area, or because of similarity may cause confusion.
(2) 
Where a street maintains the same general direction except for curvilinear changes for short distances, the same name shall continue for the entire length of the street.
(3) 
A name which is assigned to a street which is not presently a through street, due to intervening land over which the street extension is planned, shall be continued for the separate portions of the planned through street.
(4) 
The below listed street designations shall be limited to the following conditions:
(a) 
Boulevard. A street with a divided pavement either existing or planned. If the divided pavement ends, but the street continues, the same street name and suffix shall continue.
(b) 
Lane. To be limited to a street, one block long, not ending in a cul-de-sac.
(c) 
Circle. To be limited to a cul-de-sac of nine lots or more.
(d) 
Court. To be limited to a cul-de-sac of eight lots or less.
(e) 
Parkway. To be limited to a street abutting a park on greenway or creek.
(5) 
The name of the projection of a street shall continue the same suffix as the street even if the projection terminates in a cul-de-sac.
(6) 
Access roads and highways served by them shall have the same street names and designation.
(7) 
Approval of street names on a preliminary plat will not reserve the street name nor shall it be mandatory for the Village to accept it at the time of final platting.
A. 
Easements across lots or along rear or side lot lines shall be provided for utilities where necessary and shall be at least 10 feet wide on each side of lot lines, and shall be designated as "utility easement" on the plat or certified survey map. The Village shall solicit the recommendations of the utility companies regarding utility easement needs to service the subdivision, as appropriate.
B. 
All lots shall be served by underground electric and telephone utility lines unless waived by the Village due to excessive cost and topographic limitations.
C. 
Where utility facilities are to be installed underground, the utility easements shall be graded to within six inches of the final grade by the subdivider prior to the installation of such facilities, and earthfill, piles or mounds of dirt shall not be stored on such easement.
D. 
All utility lines for electric power and telephone service when carried overhead on poles shall be placed in utility casements unless waived by the Village.
E. 
Utility facilities when installed on utility easements whether overhead or underground shall not be closer than one foot to a property line or three feet to any monument.
F. 
Where a subdivision is served by an existing overhead facility, such facility may be utilized and improved with the approval of the Village.
A. 
The subdivider shall be responsible for designing and installing drainage facilities that address all drainage, stormwater runoff and outflow water in accordance with generally accepted engineering standards. The Village Engineer may request, and the subdivider shall then be required to provide, drainage plans confirming that the land division and development will not increase peak flow to adjacent areas after storms of recurrence frequency and under predevelopment runoff conditions to be established by the Village Engineer.
B. 
Where required by the drainage plan or Village Engineer and/or where a subdivision is traversed by a watercourse, drainageway, channel or stream, the subdivider shall provide an adequate drainageway easement as required by the Village. The location, width, alignment and grading of such easements shall be of such a width and design to accommodate the anticipated discharge from the property being subdivided and also the anticipated runoff that will occur when property at a higher elevation in the drainage basin is developed.
C. 
Storm sewers shall be required so that runoff is conveyed in curb and gutter for no more than 800 feet, or less if so determined by the Village Engineer.
D. 
All runoff under one-hundred-year recurrence frequency storms shall be retained in public street rights-of-way or drainage easements.
A. 
The length, width, and shape of blocks shall be suited to the planned use of the land, zoning requirements, needs for convenient access, control and safety of street traffic, and the limitations and opportunities of topography. Block lengths in residential areas shall not, as a general rule, be less than 600 feet in length between street lines unless dictated by exceptional topography or other limiting factors of good design.
B. 
Blocks shall have sufficient widths to provide tiers of lots of appropriate depth except where otherwise required to separate residential development from through traffic.
C. 
Pedestrian ways or crosswalks, not less than 10 feet in width, shall be provided near the center and entirely across any block 900 feet or more in length where deemed essential to provide adequate pedestrian circulation or access to schools, shopping centers, churches, or transportation facilities.
A. 
The size, shape, and orientation of the lots shall be appropriate for the location of the subdivision and for the type of development and use contemplated. The lots should be designed to provide an aesthetically pleasing building site and a proper architectural setting for the building contemplated.
B. 
Every lot shall front or abut a public street.
C. 
Lot width as measured from the building setback line and lot area for residential development shall conform to the requirements of Ch. 520, Zoning, of the Code of the Village of Blanchardville, but shall be not less than 10,000 square feet with a minimum width of 90 feet.
D. 
Side lot lines shall be substantially at right angles or radial to street lines.
E. 
Corner lots shall have an extra width of 10 feet over the minimum requirement to permit adequate building setbacks from side streets.
F. 
In case a parcel is subdivided into smaller parcels, such parcels shall be arranged as to allow the resubdivision of any such parcels into normal lots in accordance with the provisions of this chapter.
G. 
Lot lines shall follow municipal boundary lines rather than cross them.
H. 
Double frontage or reverse frontage lots shall be avoided except where essential to provide separation of residential development from arterial streets, or to overcome specific disadvantages of topography and orientation. A planting screen easement of at least 10 feet shall be provided along the line of lots abutting such an arterial street or other disadvantageous use.
I. 
Depth and width of properties reserved or laid out for commercial or industrial use shall be adequate to provide for the off-street parking and service facilities required by the type of use and development contemplated.
