(a) The arrangement of blocks shall be such as to conform to the street planning criteria set forth in Section 1114.12 and shall be arranged to accommodate lots and building sites of the size and character required for the zoning district as set forth in this code.
(b) Subdivisions shall be designed with blocks of sufficient width to permit two (2) tiers of lots of appropriate depth, except where an interior street parallels a limited access highway, arterial street, or railroad right-of-way.
(c) Irregularly shaped blocks, including superblocks, indented by cul-de-sacs, containing interior parks or playgrounds and adequate parking spaces, will be acceptable when properly designed and covered by agreements as to maintenance of such park areas.
(d) Blocks shall have a minimum length of 400 feet and a maximum length of 1,100 feet. In reviewing the subdivision plat, the MPC can modify these requirements for blocks that will be located adjacent to nonresidential uses or where there are unusual topographic or natural features.
(e) Blocks intended for business or industry shall be of such length as may be considered most suitable for their prospective use, including adequate provision for parking and deliveries.
(f) Where a subdivision adjoins a major thoroughfare, the block shall be oriented so that there will be the fewest points of direct ingress and egress along such major thoroughfare as possible. (Ord. 2024-032. Passed 7-22-24.)
