§ 155.590 FLAG LOT.
   Flag lots may be created only when a through street or mid-block lanes cannot be extended to serve abutting uses or future development. A flag lot driveway (“flag pole”) may serve no more than two dwellings units, including accessory dwellings and dwellings on individual lots, unless Uniform Fire Code (UFC) standards are met for more units. A driveway serving more than one lot shall be a minimum of 15 feet wide, except as required by the UFC, and have a reciprocal access and maintenance easement recorded for all lots. No fence, structure or other obstacle shall be placed within the drive area. The Fire Marshal may require an emergency turn-around. Fire sprinklers may also be required for buildings that cannot be fully served by fire hydrants due to distance from a hydrant of insufficient fire flow.
