(a) The arrangement, character, extent, width and location of major, secondary, and minor streets or highways shall conform with the Official Thoroughfare Plan for the Municipality, which is on file with the Clerk of the Municipality and with the provisions of these Regulations. Streets not contained in the Official Thoroughfare Plan should conform to the recommendation of the Planning Commission based on existing and planned streets, topography, public safety and convenience, and proposed uses of land.
(b) Neighborhood unit type development is encouraged by the Planning Commission. Where large subdivisions designed on the basis of neighborhood units are being reviewed, consideration will be given to the placement of commercial areas and public areas, in relation both to the neighborhood unit being developed and to other units that might be developed. Where small subdivisions are being reviewed, the Planning Commission shall coordinate such subdivisions, to the extent practicable, into units so that the same relationship with respect to commercial areas and public areas may be realized. These design standards shall be required in all areas except where special provisions are made for a hillside area in excess of fifteen percent (15%) of slope. Any exceptions to the provisions in this Section which are made for hillside development are specified in Chapter 1121.
