(A) (1) In general, the size, shape and orientation of lots shall be appropriate for the location of the subdivision and for the type of development and use contemplated. Lot dimensions shall conform to the requirements of the village’s zoning regulations, as adopted by reference in Chapter 155 of this code of ordinances.
(2) However, in any residential district, on a lot of record on the effective date hereof, a single-family dwelling may be established regardless of the size of the lot, provided all the requirements of this chapter are complied with.
(B) Depth and width of properties reserved or laid out for business, commercial or industrial purposes shall be adequate to provide for the off-street parking and loading facilities required for the type of use and development contemplated, as established in the village’s zoning regulations, as adopted by reference in Chapter 155 of this code of ordinances.
(C) Every lot shall front on or abut a public street. Lots with access only to private drives or streets shall be permitted only with the approval of the Planning Commission.
(D) Lots shall be laid out so as to provide positive drainage away from all buildings, and individual lot drainage shall be coordinated with the general stormwater drainage pattern for the area. Drainage shall be designed so as to avoid concentration of storm drainage water from each lot to adjacent lots.
(E) Side lot lines shall be approximately at right angles or radial to street lines.
(F) Corner lots for residential use shall have extra width to permit appropriate building setback from and orientation to both streets.
