(1) Residential lots outside the corporation limits which cannot be served reasonably by public sanitary sewers or which are not within reasonable distance of available public water supply shall have a minimum width of 100 feet, measured at the building setback line and a minimum area of 20,000 square feet, unless higher standards are required by the Board of Health having jurisdiction. Standards established by the appropriate Board of Health shall apply to areas within 2000 feet of a public water supply.
(2) Residential lots which are located outside the zoning control of the Village but which are served by public water and sewer systems shall have a minimum width at the building setback line of seventy-five feet and an area no less than 10,000 square feet.
(c) Corner lots for residential use shall have extra 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 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 ten feet, and across which there shall be no right of 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.
(g) The average depth of a residential lot shall be not more than three and one-half times the width of the lot, measured at the building setback line.
(h) Where the subdivided area is not under zoning control and is to be used for residential purposes, the subdivider shall establish building lines in accordance with the character of the development, but in no case shall the front building line be less than thirty feet from the right of way or roadway easement of the street or thoroughfare upon which the lot fronts. Restrictions requiring buildings to be set back of such building lines shall be shown on the plat.
