A.
Compliance with statutes. In laying out a subdivision the owner shall
conform to the provisions of Ch. 236, Wis. Stats., and all applicable
Village regulations. In all cases where the requirements of this chapter
are different from the requirements of Ch. 236, the more restrictive
provision shall apply.
B.
Dedication. The subdivider shall dedicate land and improve streets as provided in this chapter and § 500-29. Streets shall be located with due regard for topographical conditions, natural features, existing and proposed streets, utilities and land uses and public convenience and safety. Streets shall conform to Official Maps adopted by the Village Board. The subdivision, certified survey parcel or land division shall be so designed as to provide each lot with satisfactory access to a public street or road.
C.
Compliance with Comprehensive Plan. The arrangement, character, extent,
width, grade and location of all streets shall conform to any Village
Comprehensive Plan and to this chapter and shall be considered in
their relation to existing and planned streets, to reasonable circulation
of traffic, to topographical conditions, to runoff of stormwater,
to public convenience and safety, and in their appropriate relation
to the proposed uses of the land to be served by such streets. The
arrangement of streets in new subdivisions shall make provision for
the appropriate continuation at the same width of the existing streets
in adjoining areas.
D.
Areas not covered by Official Map. Unless waived, in any new subdivision,
the street layout shall conform to the arrangement, width and location
indicated on the Official Map, county jurisdictional highway system
plan, Comprehensive Plan or plan component, or precise neighborhood
unit development plan of the Village of Fredonia, Wisconsin. In areas
for which such plans have not been completed, the street layout shall
recognize the functional classification of the various types of streets
and shall be developed and located in proper relation to existing
and proposed streets, to the topography, to such natural features
as streams and tree growth, to public convenience and safety, to the
proposed use of the land to be served by such streets, and to the
most advantageous development of adjoining areas. The subdivision
shall be designed so as to provide each lot with satisfactory access
to a public street.
E.
Street classifications. Streets shall be classified as indicated
below:
(1)
Arterial streets. Arterial streets as hereafter defined shall be
arranged so as to provide ready access to centers of employment, centers
of governmental activity, community shopping areas, community recreation,
and points beyond the boundaries of the community. They shall also
be properly integrated with and related to the existing and proposed
system of major streets and highways and shall be, insofar as practicable,
continuous and in alignment with existing or planned streets with
which they are to connect.
(2)
Collector streets. Collector streets shall be arranged so as to provide
ready collection of traffic from commercial and residential areas
and conveyance of this traffic to the major street and highway system
and shall be properly related to special traffic generators such as
schools, churches and shopping centers and other concentrations of
population and to the major street into which they connect.
(3)
Minor streets. Minor streets shall be arranged to conform to the
topography, to discourage use by through traffic, to permit the design
of efficient storm and sanitary sewerage systems and to require the
minimum street area necessary to provide safe and convenient access
to abutting property.
(4)
Proposed streets. Proposed streets shall extend to the boundary lines
of the tract being subdivided unless prevented by topography or other
physical conditions or unless, in the opinion of the Village Board,
such extension is not necessary or desirable for the coordination
of the layout of the subdivision or land division or for the advantageous
development of the adjacent tracts.
(5)
Private street. A street owned and maintained by a private individual,
organization or company rather than by the Village of Fredonia, Ozaukee
County, State of Wisconsin or the United States of America. Consequently,
unauthorized use of the street may be considered trespassing, and
some of the usual rules of the streets may not apply. The most common
type of private streets are residential streets maintained by a homeowners'
association, housing co-op, or other group of individual homeowners.
F.
Reserve strips. Reserve strips shall not be provided on any plat
to control access to streets or alleys, except where control of such
strips is placed with the Village under conditions approved by the
Village Board.
G.
Alleys.
(1)
Commercial and industrial. Alleys shall be provided in all commercial
and industrial districts for off-street loading and service access,
except that the Village Board may waive this requirement where other
definite and assured provision is made for service access, such as
off-street loading and parking, consistent with and adequate for the
uses proposed.
(2)
Residential. Alleys shall not be approved in residential areas unless
necessary because of topography or other exceptional circumstances.
(3)
Width. The width of alleys shall not be less than 24 feet.
(4)
Dead end. Dead-end alleys are prohibited, and crooked and "T" alleys
shall be discouraged.
H.
Continuation. Streets shall be laid out to provide for possible continuation
wherever topographic and other physical conditions permit. Provision
shall be made so that all proposed streets shall have a direct connection
with, or be continuous and in line with, existing, planned or platted
streets with which they are to connect. Proposed streets shall be
extended to the boundary lines of the tract to be subdivided, unless
prevented by topography or other physical conditions, or unless in
the opinion of the Village Board, upon the recommendation of the Planning
Commission, such extension is not necessary or desirable for the coordination
of the layout of the subdivision with existing layout or the most
advantageous future development of adjacent tracts. Dead-end streets
not over 500 feet in length will be approved when necessitated by
the topography.
I.
Frontage roads. Where a subdivision abuts or contains an existing
or proposed arterial highway, the Village Board may require a frontage
road, nonaccess reservation along the rear of the property contiguous
to such highway or such other treatment as may be necessary to ensure
safe, efficient traffic flow and adequate protection of residential
properties.
J.
Private streets. A street owned and maintained by a private individual,
organization, or company rather than by the Village of Fredonia, Ozaukee
County, State of Wisconsin or the United States of America. Consequently,
unauthorized use of the street may be considered trespassing, and
some of the usual rules of the streets may not apply. The most common
type of private streets are residential streets maintained by a homeowners'
association, housing co-op, or other group of individual homeowners.
K.
Visibility. Streets shall afford maximum visibility and safety and
shall intersect at right angles where practicable. As required by
the Village Engineer, sufficient vision clearance triangles shall
be provided at intersections.
L.
Tangents. A tangent at least 100 feet long shall be required between
reverse curves on arterial and collector streets.
M.
Street grades.
(1)
Unless necessitated by exceptional topography subject to the approval
of the Village Board, the maximum center-line grade of any street
or public way shall not exceed the following:
(2)
Street grades shall be established wherever practicable so as to
avoid excessive grading, extensive removal of ground cover and tree
growth, and general leveling of the topography.
(3)
All changes in street grades shall be connected by vertical curves
of a minimum length equivalent in feet to 15 times the algebraic difference
in the rates of grade for major and collector streets and 1/2 this
minimum for all other streets.
N.
Radii of curvature.
(1)
When a continuous street center line deflects at any one point by
more than 10°, a circular curve shall be introduced having a radius
of curvature on said center line of not less than the following:
(2)
Curves should be provided when center line deflections exceed 1°
in rural areas and in urban areas when defection exceeds 3°.
O.
Half streets. Where an existing dedicated or platted half-street
is adjacent to the subdivision, the other half-street shall be dedicated
by the subdivider. The platting of half-streets should be avoided
where possible.
P.
Street intersections. Streets shall intersect each other at as nearly
right angles as topography and other limiting factors of good design
permit. In addition:
(1)
The number of streets converging at one intersection shall be reduced
to a minimum, preferable not more than two.
(2)
The number of intersections along major streets and highways shall
be held to a minimum. Wherever practicable, the distance between such
intersections shall not be less than 1,200 feet.
(3)
Property lines at street intersections shall be rounded with a minimum
radius of 15 feet or of a greater radius when required by the Village
Planning Commission or shall be cut off by a straight line through
the points of tangency of an arc having a radius of 15 feet.
(4)
Minor streets shall not necessarily continue across arterial or collector
streets; but if the center lines of such minor streets approach the
major streets from opposite sides within 250 feet of each other, measured
along the center line of the arterial or collector street, then the
location shall be so adjusted that the adjoinment across the major
or collector street is continuous, and a jog is avoided.
Q.
Street names. New street names shall not duplicate the names of existing
streets, but streets that are continuations of others already in existence
and named shall bear the names of the existing streets. Street names
shall be subject to approval by the Planning Commission and Village
Board.
R.
Culs-de-sac.
(1)
Culs-de-sac. Cul-de-sac streets designed to have one end permanently
closed shall not exceed 750 feet in length. All cul-de-sac streets
designed to have one end permanently closed shall terminate in a circular
turnaround having a minimum right-of-way radius of 75 feet. The use
of culs-de-sac should be avoided where possible.
(2)
Temporary termination of streets. Temporary termination of streets
intended to be extended at a later date shall be accomplished with
a temporary cul-de-sac in accordance with the standards set forth
above, or by the construction of a temporary "T" intersection 33 feet
in width and 33 feet in length abutting the right-of-way lines of
the access street on each side.
S.
Limited access highway and railroad right-of-way treatment. Whenever
the proposed subdivision contains or is adjacent to a limited access
highway, arterial street or railroad right-of-way, the design shall
provide the following treatment:
(1)
Subdivision lots. When lots within the proposed subdivision back
upon the right-of-way of an existing or proposed limited access highway
or a railroad, a planting strip at least 30 feet in depth shall be
provided adjacent to the highway or railroad in addition to the normal
lot depth. This strip shall be part of the platted lots but shall
have the following restriction lettered on the face of the plat: "This
strip reserved for the planting of trees and shrubs, the building
of structures hereon prohibited."
(2)
Commercial and industrial districts. Commercial and industrial properties
shall have provided, on each side of the limited access highway, arterial
street or railroad, streets approximately parallel to and at a suitable
distance from such highway or railroad for the appropriate use of
the land between such streets and highway or railroad, but not less
than 150 feet.
(3)
Streets parallel to a limited access highway. Streets parallel to
a limited access highway or railroad right-of-way, when intersecting
a major street and highway or collector street which crosses said
railroad or highway, shall be located at a minimum distance of 250
feet from said highway or railroad right-of-way. Such distance, where
desirable and practicable, shall be determined with due consideration
of the minimum distance required for the future separation of grades
by means of appropriate approach gradients.
(4)
Minor streets. Minor streets immediately adjacent and parallel to
railroad rights-of-way shall be avoided, and location of minor streets
immediately adjacent to arterial streets and highways and to railroad
rights-of-way shall be avoided in residential areas.
T.
Street widths. The minimum right-of-way and roadway width of all
proposed streets and alleys shall be as specified by the master plan,
Official Map, or neighborhood development study.
U.
Arterial street and highway protection. Whenever the proposed subdivision
contains or is adjacent to a major street or highway, adequate protection
of residential properties, limitation of access and separation of
through and local traffic shall be provided by reversed frontage,
with screen planting contained in a nonaccess reservation along the
rear property line, or by the use of frontage streets.
V.
Stream or lake shores. Stream or lake shores shall have a minimum
of 60 feet of public access platted to the low water mark at intervals
of not more that 1/2 mile as required by § 236.16(3) of
the Wisconsin Statutes.
W.
New and replacement bridges and culverts. All new and replacement
bridges and culverts over perennial waterways, including pedestrian
and other minor bridges, in addition to meeting other applicable requirements,
shall be designed so as to accommodate the one-hundred-year recurrence
interval flood event without raising the peak stage, either upstream
or downstream, more than 0.01 feet above the peak stage for the one-hundred-year
recurrence interval flood, as established in the applicable federal
flood insurance study. Larger permissible flood stage increases may
be acceptable for reaches having topographic land use conditions which
could accommodate the increased stage without creating additional
flood damage potential upstream or downstream of the proposed structure.
Such bridges and culverts shall be so designed and constructed as
to facilitate the passage of ice flows and other debris. All new and
replacement bridges shall be constructed in accordance with all applicable
State Statutes and codes and shall be submitted to the Department
of Natural Resources to ensure compliance therewith.
A.
General requirements.
(1)
Construction standards. All roadway construction and materials used shall be performed in accordance with the construction methods as listed in the appropriate sections of the "State of Wisconsin Department of Transportation Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction" and its supplements, and this chapter, whichever is more restrictive. The design requirements of this section and § 500-46 shall be applicable to all streets and roads that are to be dedicated to the Village, regardless of whether such streets or roads are part of a new subdivision or land division.
(2)
Project costs. All roadway surveys, dedications, plans and specifications
and construction will be at the expense of the applicant or applicants.
This includes any expense incurred by the Village in the preparation
of plans and review and inspection of plans and construction.
(3)
Preliminary consultation. Prior to the design, preparation and construction
of any roadway to be dedicated to the Village of Fredonia, the applicant
shall notify the Village Clerk. An on-site meeting will then be arranged
to be attended by the Village Engineer and the applicant. Plans must
be provided in order for the Village Engineer to check the design
and drainage.
[Amended 11-17-2022 by Ord. No. 2022-6]
(4)
Material slips. Copies of material slips for all materials furnished
for the road construction projects shall be delivered to the Village
before the Village approves the final construction.
(5)
(6)
Tests of materials. The Village reserves the right to obtain a sample
of the roadway base material prior to placement on the roadway for
purposes of determining whether the material meets gradation and soundness
requirements.
(7)

the Village during pavement construction operations for purposes of
determining that the material meets specifications.
B.
Construction standards. All streets and highways constructed in the
Village or to be dedicated to the Village shall fully comply with
the following construction standards:
(1)
Grading.
(a)
With the submittal of the final plat, the subdivider shall furnish
drawings, which indicate the existing and proposed grades of roads,
streets and alleys shown on the plat.
(b)
Proposed grades will be reviewed by the Village Engineer for
conformance with Village standards and good engineering practice.
Street grades require the approval of the Village Board after receipt
of the Village Engineer's recommendations.
(c)
After installation of temporary block corner monuments by the
subdivider and the establishment of street grades by the Village Engineer,
the subdivider shall grade the full width of the right-of-way of the
streets and alleys proposed to be dedicated, including the vision
clearance triangle on corner lots, followed by surfacing required
by this chapter. After installation of water and sewer facilities,
the roadway shall be surfaced.
(d)
In cases where an existing street right-of-way is made a part
of the plat or abuts the plat, the subdivider shall grade that portion
of the right-of-way between the existing pavement and the property
line.
(e)
The bed for the roadways in the street rights-of-way shall be
graded to subgrade elevation.

of 10 inches of compacted in-place crushed aggregate base course of
gradation No. 2 in the top layer and gradations No. 1 and No. 2 in
the lower level.
(b)
On commercial, arterial or other heavy-use streets, as determined
by the Village Board, a base course of 10 inches compacted shall be
constructed upon an inspected and approved subgrade, either well-graded
crushed gravel from a state-approved pit with a maximum stone of 1 1/2
inches and no greater than 10% by weight passing a No. 200 sieve or
No. 3 crushed rock approximately six inches in depth and one or more
layers of fine aggregate, either 3/4-inch crushed gravel, well-graded
with no greater than 10% passing a No. 200 sieve, or 3/4 inch-traffic-bound
crushed rock.
(c)
In the case of commercial, arterial or other heavy-use roads,
the Village Board may, in the alternative to the above standards,
have the Village Engineer provide specifications for such roads after
researching the site(s) and conducting a soil analysis.
(d)
In any case, the Village Board shall have the sole discretion
in determining the use and construction classification to be adhered
to.
(e)
In all cases, the base course shall be compacted to the extent
necessary to produce a condition so that there will be no appreciable
displacement of material laterally and longitudinally under traffic
and shall conform to line, grades and shape shown on the approved
plans, profiles and cross sections.
(3)
Roadway subbase. Stable and nonorganic subbase material is required.
Unstable and organic material must be subcut, removed and replaced
with a suitable granular or breaker-run material approved by the Village
Engineer.
(4)
Pavement thickness. Streets shall be constructed with curb and gutter
and have a minimum of 2 1/2 inches thick compacted bituminous
concrete pavement, placed in two layers-a binder course of 1 1/2

be constructed as directed by the Village Engineer and sized utilizing
the methods listed in Chapter 13, entitled "Drainage," of the "Facilities
Development Manual" of the Wisconsin Department of Transportation.
All roadway culverts shall be provided with concrete or metal apron
endwalls.
(6)
Topsoil, grass, seed, fertilizer and mulch. All disturbed areas (ditches,
backslopes) within the road right-of-way not provided with pavement
and shouldering material shall be restored utilizing four inches of
topsoil and good quality grass seed, fertilizer and mulch. Ditches
along the roadway with greater than a 2.5% slope shall be protected
by erosion control materials such as hay bales, sod, erosion control
mats, etc.
(7)
Drainage improvements. In the case of all new roads and streets,
the Village Board may require that stormwater retention areas and
storm sewers be constructed in order to provide for proper drainage.
A.
Length; arrangement. The lengths, widths and shapes of blocks shall
be appropriate for the topography and the type of development contemplated,
but block length in residential areas shall not exceed 1,500 feet
nor have less than sufficient width to provide for two tiers of lots
of appropriate depth between street lines. As a general rule, blocks
shall not be less than 600 feet in length.
B.
Pedestrian pathways. Pedestrian pathways, not less than 10 feet wide,
may be required by the Village Board, upon the recommendation of the
Planning Commission, through the center of a block more than 900 feet
long, where deemed essential to provide circulation or access to schools,
parks, churches, playgrounds, shopping centers, transportation and
other community facilities.
C.
Width. The width of blocks shall be wide enough to provide for two
tiers of lots of appropriate depth except where otherwise required
to separate residential development from through traffic. Width of
lots or parcels reserved or laid out for commercial or industrial
use shall be adequate to provide for off-street service and parking
required by the use contemplated and the area zoning restrictions
for such use.
D.
Utility easements. Utility easements for electric power and telephone
service shall, where practical, be placed on midblock easements along
rear lot lines.
A.
Size. The size, shape and orientation of lots shall be appropriate
for the location of topography of the subdivision, the type of sewerage
or septic system to be utilized, and for the type of development contemplated,
provided that no lot shall be smaller in area than the minimum lot
size for the appropriate zone as established by the Zoning Code.[1]
B.
Commercial lots. Depth and width of properties reserved or laid out
for commercial or industrial purposes shall be adequate to provide
for the off-street service and parking facilities required by the
type of use and development contemplated, as required by the Zoning
Code.
C.
Lots where abutting major highway. Residential lots fronting on major
streets and highways shall be platted with extra depth or design or
alleviate the effect of major street traffic on residential occupancy.
D.
Corner lots. Corner lots for residential use shall have a width sufficient
to provide a building setback of at least 25 feet from each street.
E.
Access to public streets. Every lot shall front or abut for a minimum
distance of at least 40 feet on a public street. Lots with an access
only to private drives or streets shall be permitted only with Village
Board approval.
F.
Side lots. Side lot lines shall be substantially at right angles
to or radial to abutting street lines. Lot lines shall follow Village
boundary lines.
G.
Double and reversed frontage lots. Double frontage and reversed frontage
lots shall be avoided except where necessary to provide separation
of residential development from traffic arteries or to overcome specific
disadvantages of topography and orientation.
H.
Natural features. In the subdividing of any land, regard shall be
shown for all natural features, such as tree growth, watercourses,
historic spots or similar conditions which, if preserved, will add
attractiveness and stability to the proposed development.
I.
Land remnants. All remnants of lots below minimum size left over
after subdividing of a larger tract must be added to adjacent lots,
or a plan shown as to future use, rather than allowed to remain as
unusable parcels.
J.
Large lots. Where lots are created of a size larger than normal for
the area, the Planning Commission may require that the plat be so
designed as to allow for the possible future resubdivision of such
lots into normal sizes compatible with the area.
K.
Area and dimensions. Area and dimensions of all lots shall conform
to the requirements of the Village of Fredonia Zoning Ordinance for
the subdivisions within the Village and to the applicable town or
county zoning ordinance within the Village's extraterritorial jurisdictional
limits. Those building sites not served by a public sanitary sewerage
system or other approved system shall be sufficient to permit the
use of an on-site soil absorption sewage disposal system designed
in accordance with Chapter SPS 383 of the Wisconsin Administrative
Code. The width and area of lots located on soils suitable for the
use of an on-site soil absorption sewage disposal system shall not
be less than 150 feet in width and 40,000 square feet in area.
L.
Lot depth. Depth of lots shall be a minimum of 125 feet. Excessive
depth in relation to width shall be avoided and a proportion of 2:1
shall be considered a desirable ratio under normal conditions. Depth
of lots or parcels reserved or laid out for commercial or industrial
use shall be adequate to provide for off-street service and parking
required by the use contemplated.
M.
Lot width. Width of lots shall conform to the requirements of the
Village Zoning Code, or other applicable ordinance, and in no case
shall a lot be less than 85 feet in width at the building setback
line.
N.
Meander line. Lands lying between the meander line and the water's
edge and any otherwise unplatable lands which lie between a proposed
subdivision and the water's edge shall be included as part of lots,
outlots or public dedications in any plat abutting a lake or stream.
O.
Restrictions prohibiting development. Whenever a lot appearing on
a final plat, condominium plat, or certified survey map is not intended
to be buildable, or is intended to be buildable only upon certain
conditions, an express restriction to that effect, running with the
land and enforceable by the Village, shall appear on the face of the
plat or map.
Building setback lines appropriate to the location and type
of development contemplated, which are more restrictive than required
in the applicable zoning district, may be permitted or required by
the Planning Commission and shall be shown on the final plat, condominium
plat, or certified survey map. Examples of the application of this
provision would include requiring greater setbacks on cul-de-sac lots
to achieve the necessary lot width at the setback line, requiring
greater setbacks to conform to setbacks of existing adjacent development,
requiring greater setbacks to avoid placing buildings within easements
or vision clearance triangles, setting special yard requirements to
protect natural resources, or requiring greater setbacks along arterial
streets and highways to meet the requirements of Chapter Trans 233
of the Wisconsin Administrative Code.
Where natural drainage channels, floodplains, wetlands, or other
environmentally sensitive areas are encompassed in whole or in part
within a proposed land division or condominium, the Planning Commission
may require that such areas be dedicated or that restriction be placed
on the plat or certified survey map to protect such resources. The
Planning Commission may further require that such areas be included
in outlots designated on the plat or certified survey map and restricted
from development.
A.
Drainage system required. As required by § 500-34, a drainage system shall be designed and constructed by the subdivider to provide for the proper drainage of the surface water of the subdivision and the drainage area of which it is a part. A final plat shall not be approved until the subdivider shall submit plans, profiles and specifications as specified in this section, which have been prepared by a registered professional engineer and approved by the Village Board, upon the recommendations of the Planning Commission and Village Engineer.
B.
Drainage system plans.
(1)
The subdivider shall submit to the Village at the time of filing
a preliminary plat a preliminary drainage plan or engineering report
on the ability of existing watercourse channels, storm sewers, culverts
and other improvements pertaining to drainage or flood control within
the subdivision to handle the additional runoff which would be generated
by the development of the land within the subdivision. Additional
information shall be submitted to adequately indicate that provision
has been made for disposal of surface water without any damage to
the developed or undeveloped land downstream or below the proposed
subdivision. The report shall also include:
(2)
A grading plan for the streets, blocks and lots shall be submitted
by the subdivider for the area within the subdivision.
(3)
The design criteria for storm drainage systems shall be based upon
information provided by the Village Engineer.
(4)
Material and construction specifications for all drainage projects
(i.e., pipe, culverts, seed, sod, etc.) shall be in compliance with
specifications provided by the Village Engineer.
C.
Grading. The subdivider shall grade each subdivision in order to
establish street, block and lot grades in proper relation to each
other and to topography as follows:
(1)
The subdivider shall grade the full width of the right-of-way of
all proposed streets in accordance with the approved plans.
(2)
Block grading shall be completed by one or more of the following
methods:
(a)
A ridge may be constructed along the rear lot lines, which provides
for drainage onto the streets.
(b)
Parts of all lots may be graded to provide for drainage to the
street or to a ditch along the rear lot line.
(c)
Draining across rear or side lot lines may be permitted provided
that drainage onto adjoining properties is skillfully controlled.
D.
Drainage system requirements. The subdivider shall install all the storm drainage facilities indicated on the plans required in Subsection A of this section.
(1)
Street drainage. All streets shall be provided with an adequate storm
drainage system. The street storm system shall serve as the primary
drainage system and shall be designed to carry street, adjacent land
and building stormwater drainage. No stormwater shall be permitted
to be run into the sanitary sewer system within the proposed subdivision.
(2)
Off-street drainage. The design of the off-street drainage system
shall include the watershed affecting the subdivision and shall be
extended to a watercourse or ditch adequate to receive the storm drainage.
When the drainage system is outside of the street right-of-way, the
subdivider shall make provisions for dedicating an easement to the
Village to provide for the future maintenance of said system. Easements
shall be a minimum of 20 feet, but the Village may require larger
easements if more area is needed due to topography, size of watercourse,
etc.
E.
Protection of drainage systems. The subdivider shall adequately protect
all ditches to the satisfaction of the Village Board and Village Engineer.
Ditches and open channels shall be seeded, sodded or paved depending
upon grades and soil types. (Generally ditches or channels with grades
up to 1% shall be seeded; those with grades up to 4% shall be sodded
and those with grades over 4% shall be paved.)
A.
General.
(1)
If a proposed subdivision includes land that is zoned for commercial
or industrial purposes, the layout of the subdivision with respect
to such land shall make such provisions as the Village may require.
(2)
A nonresidential subdivision shall also be subject to all the requirements
of site plan approval set forth in the Village Zoning and Building
Codes.[1] A nonresidential subdivision shall be subject to all the
requirements of this chapter, as well as such additional standards
required by the Village and shall conform to the proposed land use
standards established by any Village Comprehensive Plan or Official
Map and the Village Zoning Code.
B.
Standards. In addition to the principles and standards in this chapter,
which are appropriate to the planning of all subdivisions, the applicant
shall demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Village Board that the
street, parcel and block pattern proposed is specifically adapted
to the uses anticipated and takes into account other uses in the vicinity.
The following principles and standards shall be observed:
(1)
Proposed industrial parcels shall be suitable in area and dimensions
to the types of industrial development anticipated.
(2)
Street rights-of-way and pavement shall be adequate to accommodate
the type and volume of traffic anticipated to be generated thereupon.
(3)
Special requirements may be imposed by the Village Board with respect
to street, curb, gutter and sidewalk design and construction.
(4)
Special requirements may be imposed by the Village Board with respect
to the installation of public utilities, including water, sewer and
stormwater drainage.
(5)
Every effort shall be made to protect adjacent residential areas
from potential nuisance from a proposed commercial or industrial subdivision,
including the provision of extra depth in parcels backing up on existing
or potential residential development and provisions for permanently
landscaped buffer strips when necessary.
(6)
Streets carrying nonresidential traffic, especially truck traffic,
shall not normally be extended to the boundaries of adjacent existing
or potential residential areas.
