(A) Block lengths shall not exceed 1,200 feet and, if possible, shall not be less than 400 feet in length. In blocks longer than 800 feet, a pedestrian crossway with a minimum right-of-way of ten feet shall be required near the center of the block. The use of additional accessways to schools, parks, and other destinations may also be required.
(B) A block shall be so designed as to provide two tiers of lots of appropriate depth unless it adjoins a railroad or highway or arterial street and unless the rear lot line abuts a different land use, or topographical conditions necessitate a single tier of lots. In these cases, the lot depth shall be at least 15 feet greater than minimum requirements.
