(a) Arrangements. Insofar as practical, side lot lines shall be at right angles to straight street lines or radial to curved street lines. Each lot must front upon a public street or road which is not less than fifty feet in width.
(b) Minimum Size. The size, shape and orientation of lots shall be such as the Planning Commission deems appropriate for the type of development and use contemplated. Where a public sanitary sewer is reasonably accessible, the subdivider shall connect with such sewer and provide a connection to each lot. Where a public sewer is not accessible, an alternate method of sewage disposal may be used, when meeting all applicable public health regulations.
(1) Residential lots served by a public sewerage system shall not be less than sixty feet wide at the building setback line nor less than 6,000 square feet in area.
(2) Residential lots not served by a public sewerage system shall not be less than 100 feet wide at the building line nor less than 15,000 square feet in area.
A. Greater area may be required for private sewage disposal if, in the opinion of the County Health Officer, there are factors of drainage, soil condition or other conditions to cause potential health problems. The Planning Commission may require that data from percolation tests be submitted as a basis for passing upon subdivisions dependent upon septic tanks as a means of sewage disposal.
B. The minimum size of residential lots to be served by a private source of water supply shall be determined by the County Health Officer after investigations of soil conditions, proposed sewerage systems and depth of ground water.
C. Size of properties reserved or laid out for commercial or industrial properties shall be adequate to provide for the off-street service and parking facilities required by the type of use and development contemplated. Platting of individual lots should be avoided in favor of an overall design of the land to be used for such purposes.
D. The size and widths of lots shall in no case be less than the minimum requirements of any zoning ordinance in effect.
(c) Building Setback Lines. The minimum depth of building setback lines from the street shall not be less than thirty feet and in the case of corner lots, fifteen feet from the side street unless a lower standard is allowed by an existing zoning ordinance.
(d) Corner lots shall be sufficiently wider and larger to permit the additional side yard requirements of the Zoning Ordinance or building setback lines outlined herein.
