1361.09 BLOCKS.
   (a)   Lengths, widths and shapes of blocks shall be determined with due regard to:
      (1)   Provision of adequate building sites suitable to the special needs of the type of use anticipated.
      (2)   Zoning requirements as to lot sizes and dimensions.
      (3)   Needs for convenient access, circulation, control and safety of street and pedestrian traffic.
      (4)   Limitations and opportunities of topography.
   (b)   Block lengths shall not exceed one thousand eight hundred (1,800) feet nor be less than four hundred (400) feet, except where alternate designs are approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission.
   (c)   Blocks shall normally be designed with sufficient width to provide two (2) tiers of lots. However, the Commission may approve a more flexible block width design where due to heavy traffic ways, railroads, bordering streams, drainage courses, multi-family housing, commercial or industrial areas, schools, churches or other land uses, a two-tier block design is not appropriate.
