Streets that are obviously in alignment with others already existing and named shall bear the names of the existing streets.
Alleys are not permitted in residential areas. Alleys may be provided in the rear of business lots and, if provided, shall be at least twenty feet wide. A five-foot cut-off shall be made at all acute angle alley intersections. Adequate provision for off-street parking is to be made in accordance with the provisions of the Zoning Code for all platted business lots. Where alleys are not provided, easements of not less than seven and one-half feet in width shall be provided on each side of all rear lot lines, and along side lot lines, where necessary, for poles, wires, conduits, storm and sanitary sewers and gas, water and heat mains. Easements of greater width may be required along or across lots where necessary for the extension of main storm and sanitary sewers and other utilities, and where both water and sewer lines are located in the same easement.
