(a) The lot arrangement and design of any proposed subdivision shall be such that all lots will provide satisfactory building sites that can accommodate the proposed structures and meet required setbacks in the applicable zoning district.
(b) Lots shall also be arranged so that all lots will have frontage on a public street or road and will provide building sites properly related to topography and the character of surrounding development. Lots may have frontage on a private street only if approved as part of a PD District.
(c) The lots shall be more or less rectangular in form; triangular, elongated, or other shapes that restrict its use as a building site shall be avoided to the maximum extent feasible unless the applicant can demonstrate special circumstances requiring irregular lots to the Planning Commission.
(d) All side lot lines shall be at right angles to street lines and radial to curved street lines except where the Planning Commission determines that a variation to this rule will provide a better street and sublot layout.
(e) Corner lots shall be of sufficient width to allow vehicular access to the lot and to permit the required building set-back line for each street the lot abuts.
(f) Flag (panhandle) lots or double frontage (through) lots shall be discouraged and may only be approved if necessitated by unique features or other special physical conditions as deemed necessary by the Planning Commission. These lots shall meet the requirements established for the applicable lot type in Section 1111.01.
(g) Every lot shall have access to it that is sufficient to afford a reasonable means of ingress and egress for emergency vehicles as well as for all those likely to need or desire access to the property in its intended use. (Ord. 2023-16. Passed 6-5-23.)
