The size, shape, and orientation of lots shall be appropriate for the location of the Subdivision or Certified Survey Map development and for the type of development and use contemplated. The lots shall be designed to provide an aesthetically pleasing building site and a proper architectural setting for the building contemplated. In addition:
(a) Area and Dimensional Requirements of Lots.
(1) Area and dimensions of all lots shall conform to the requirements of the Village of Edgar Zoning Code for the subdivisions within the Village and to the Extraterritorial Zoning Code (if created) for lands within the Village's extraterritorial jurisdictional limits.
(2) Lots shall contain sufficient area to permit compliance with all required zoning setbacks.
(b) Depth of Lots. Excessive depth in relation to width shall be avoided and a proportion of three to two (3:2) shall be considered a desirable ratio under normal conditions. Depth of lots or parcels reserved or laid out for commercial or industrial use shall be adequate to provide for off-street service and parking required by the use contemplated.
(c) Width of Lots. Width of lots shall conform to the requirements of the Village Zoning Ordinance, or other applicable ordinance, and in no case shall a lot be less than eighty (80) feet in width at the building setback line.
(d) Minimum Lot Frontage. In addition to the standards in Subsection (c) above, all lots on curved streets or cul-de-sacs shall have a minimum of forty (40) feet of platted frontage on a public street [eighty (80) feet at the building setback lineJ to allow access by emergency and service motor vehicles unless part of a Planned Unit Development approved by the Village Board. Alley frontage (public or private) shall not constitute meeting this minimum frontage requirement.
(e) Lands Lying Between Meander Line and the Water's Edge. Lands lying between the meander line and the water's edge and any otherwise unplattable lands which lie between a proposed subdivision and the water's edge shall be included as part of lots, outlots or public dedications in any plat abutting a lake or stream.
(f) Commercial or Industrial Lots. Depth and width of properties reserved or laid out for commercial or industrial purposes shall be adequate to provide for the off-street service and parking facilities required by the type of use and development contemplated, as required by the Village Zoning Code.
(g) Lots Where Abutting Arterial Highway. Residential lots adjacent to major and minor arterial streets and highways and/or railroads shall be platted with an extra fifteen (15) feet of lot and an extra fifteen (15) feet of minimum yard setback and shall otherwise be designed to alleviate the adverse effects on residential adjacent lots platted to the major street, highway, railroad or other such features.
(h) Corner Lots. Comer lots for residential use shall have extra width of fifteen (15) feet to permit full building setback from both streets, or as required by applicable zoning regulations.
(i) Building Setback Lines. Building setback lines appropriate to the location and type of development contemplated, which are more restrictive than the regulation of the zoning district in which the Subdivision, Certified Survey Map, or Condominium is located, may be required by the Village Board, upon the recommendation of the Plan Commission, and shall be shown on the Final Plat, Certified Survey Map, and Condominium Plat. This provision includes requiring greater setbacks on cul-de-sac lots to achieve the necessary lot width at the setback line; requiring greater setbacks to conform to setbacks of existing adjacent development; requiring greater setbacks to accommodate a unique design; requiring greater setbacks to avoid placing buildings within easements or vision clearance triangles; setting special yard requirements to protect natural resources or requiring greater setbacks along arterial streets and highways to meet the requirements of TRANS 233, Wis. Adm. Code.
(j) Double and Reversed Frontage Lots. Double frontage and reversed frontage lots shall be avoided except where necessary to provide separation of residential development from traffic arteries or to overcome specific disadvantages of topography and orientation.
(k) Natural Features. In the dividing of any land, regard shall be shown for all natural features, such as tree growth, water courses, historic spots or similar conditions which, if preserved, will add attractiveness and stability to the proposed development.
(I) Land Remnants. All remnants of lots below minimum size left over after dividing of a larger tract must be added to adjacent lots, or a plan shown as to future use rather than allowed to remain as unusable parcels.
(m) Redivision of Large Lots. In case a tract is divided and results in parcels of more than twice the minimum lot size provided for by the Village Zoning Code for the zoning district in which the land is located, such parcels shall be so arranged to permit redividing into parcels in accordance with this Chapter and with the Village of Edgar Zoning Code.
(n) Trunk Highway Proximity. All lots adjacent to state trunk and federal highways shall be platted with additional depth necessary to provide for a building setback line not less than fifty (50) feet from the nearer right-of-way line or one hundred ten (110) feet from the centerline, whichever is more restrictive (Ref. Wis. Adm. Code HY 33). The Subdivider/Developer may appeal this requirement to the Village Engineer. Upon written request of the Village Engineer; the Wisconsin Department of Transportation is hereby authorized to then determine building setback requirements equal to or less than those required above in all land divisions (including certified surveys) adjacent to state and federal highways in accordance with the authority granted in the Wisconsin Administrative Code. The required building setback line and additional lot depth shall be platted so as to accommodate such required building setbacks.
(o) Easement Allowance. Lots containing pedestrian or drainage easements shall be platted to include additional width in allowance for the easement.
(p) Drainage Way and Watercourses. Lots abutting upon water course, drainage way, channel or stream shall have such additional depth or width as required by the Village Engineer to obtain building sites that are not subject to flooding from a post development one hundred (100) year storm.
(q) Flag Lots. Creation of flag lots is prohibited.
(r) Restrictions Prohibiting Development. Whenever a lot appearing on a Final Plat, Condominium Plat, or Certified Survey Map is not intended to be buildable, or is intended to be buildable only upon certain conditions, an express restriction to that effect, running with the land and enforceable by the Village, shall appear on the face of the plat or map.
