(A) Each block that does not contain an alley as provided for in § 153.105 shall have a utility easement at the rear of all lots reserved for the use of all public utility lines, conduits and equipment. These utility easements shall be 15 feet in width, taking seven and one-half feet from each lot where the rear of two lots abut each other, and shall be contiguous for the entire length of the block. These easements shall parallel as closely as possible the street line frontage of the block.
(B) Normal curb exposure shall be required where utility easements intersect streets.
(C) Overhang easements of at least five feet on each side of the 15-foot easement strip, at a height at or above 16 feet, shall be provided in all utility easements.
(D) Where utility easements are not themselves straight within each block, or if the same do not connect on a straight course with the utility easements of adjoining blocks, an additional easement shall be provided for the placing of guy wires on lot division lines in order to support poles set on curving or deviating right-of-ways or alleys.
