(A) All lots shall conform to the area and bulk requirements set forth in the town zoning ordinance. Whenever there is a discrepancy between the minimum standards or dimensions noted herein and those contained in the zoning ordinance, building codes or other official regulations, the highest or most restrictive standards shall apply. Conformance to zoning requirements means, among other things, that the smallest lot in the subdivision must meet all dimensional requirements of the zoning ordinance. It is not sufficient merely for the average lot to meet zoning requirement.

(1) Lot size, shapes and location shall be made with due regard to topographic conditions, contemplated use and the surrounding area.
(2) Every lot shall front or abut on a public street for a minimum distance of 50 feet.
(3) Corner lots for residential use shall have an extra width of ten feet to permit adequate building setback from side streets.
(4) Double frontage and reverse frontage lots shall be avoided except where necessary to separate residential development from through traffic or nonresidential uses.
(5) Side lot lines shall be substantially at right angles or radial to street lines.
(6) Flag-shaped lots shall only be permitted in those cases where the minimum area, width, depth and street frontage requirements of the zone in which the property is located is complied with.
(7) Lots shall meet any applicable requirements of the Brunswick County Health Department.
(C) All lots which are located within the territorial jurisdiction of the town for which public water and/or sewer is available shall connect to such public water and sewer. Where public water and/or sewer service is not provided, the following requirements shall apply:
