A. 
The arrangements, the character, the extent and location of all streets shall conform to any official thoroughfare plan for streets and highways and shall be considered in their relation to existing and planned streets, topographical conditions, public conveniences and safety, and to the proposed uses of the land to be served by such streets.
B. 
Where a subdivision abuts or contains an existing or proposed primary road or other major street, the Council may require marginal access streets, a reversed frontage with screen planting contained in a nonaccess reservation along the rear property line, deep lots with rear service alleys, or such other treatment, as may be necessary for adequate protection of residential properties and to afford separation of through and local traffic.
C. 
All road construction shall be at least to the applicable road specifications and shall comply with such additional specifications as are set forth in this chapter.
D. 
If adjoining property is not subdivided, provision shall be made for the projection of proposed roads by continuing the full widths of right-of-way with rough grading of the roads to the boundaries of the subdivision. This provision shall not prevent the establishment of culs-de-sac within the subdivision.
E. 
No street names shall be used which will duplicate or be confused with the names of existing streets.
F. 
Local streets shall have a sixty-six-foot right-of-way. Collector streets shall have an eighty-foot right-of-way. Major streets shall have a one-hundred-foot right-of-way. The Council may determine the necessity for declaring some streets in the plat to be collector or major streets.
G. 
Permanent cul-de-sac streets shall not be longer than 800 feet in length and shall be provided at the closed end with a paved circular turnaround area having an outside diameter of at least 80 feet and a street property line diameter of at least 100 feet in residential districts. The Council may require larger rights-of-way in industrial or commercial districts, depending upon anticipated uses. Temporary dead-end streets shall be provided at the closed end with a turnaround constructed to the full width of the right-of-way and in accordance with applicable specifications.
H. 
Street jogs with center-line offsets of less than 125 feet shall be avoided.
I. 
Streets shall be laid out so as to intersect as nearly as possible at right angles, and no street shall intersect any other street at less than 60°.
J. 
Minor streets shall be so laid out that their use by through traffic will be discouraged.
K. 
Half streets, except where it is essential to the reasonable development of the subdivision, are prohibited.
A. 
The maximum lengths of blocks shall be 1,500 feet, measured between the center lines of intersections, except as follows:
(1) 
In subdivisions where the width of lot at the building line is 200 feet or more, the block length may be up to 2,000 feet.
(2) 
Under extreme topographical conditions, the Council may approve blocks exceeding the one-thousand-five-hundred-foot maximum length, but in no case shall the length exceed 2,000 feet.
B. 
Where blocks exceed 900 feet in length, an easement for a crosswalk or pedestrianway of at least eight feet in width, and paved not less than five feet in width, may be required, extending entirely through the block, when necessary to obtain satisfactory pedestrian circulation, as determined by the Council.
A. 
Easements across lots or centered on rear or side lot lines shall be provided for utilities where considered necessary by the Council and shall have a minimum total width of 12 feet.
B. 
Where a subdivision is traversed by a watercourse, drainageway, channel or stream, there shall be provided a stormwater easement or drainage right-of-way conforming substantially with the lines of such watercourse and such further width or construction, or both, as will be adequate for the purpose. Parallel streets or parkways may be required in connection therewith.
A. 
The lot size, width, depth, shape and orientation, and the minimum building setback lines shall be appropriate for the location of the subdivision and for the type of development and use contemplated.
B. 
Lot dimensions shall conform to the requirements of Chapter 475, Zoning, of this Code, and the following:
(1) 
Residential lots, where not served by a public water system but served by public sanitary sewer service, shall not be less than 90 feet wide at the building line nor less than 12,000 square feet in area.
(2) 
Residential lots served by neither public water nor a public sewer system shall not be less than 100 feet wide nor less than 15,001 square feet in area.
(3) 
Depth and width of properties reserved or laid out for commercial and industrial purposes shall be adequate to provide for the off-street service and parking facilities required by the type of use and development contemplated.
C. 
Corner lots for residential use shall have sufficient width to permit appropriate building setback from and orientation to both streets.
D. 
The subdividing of the land shall be such as to provide, by means of a public street, each lot with satisfactory access to an existing public street.
E. 
Double frontage and reverse frontage lots should be avoided, except where essential to provide separation of residential development from traffic arteries or to overcome specific disadvantages of topography and orientation. A planting screen easement of at least 10 feet, and across which there shall be no right of vehicular access, shall be provided along the line of lots abutting such a traffic artery or other disadvantageous use.
F. 
Side lot lines shall be substantially at right angles or radial to street lines, except where conditions of topography or more efficient layout warrant otherwise.
G. 
If, by necessity, a lot is irregular in shape, such lot shall have frontage equal to not less than 1/2 of the minimum required lot width at the building line, on an existing or an approved dedicated public road.
H. 
A plat having waterfront lots should include a statement that the lot lines extend to the water's edge, regardless of the fluctuation in the water level.
