   1111.01 CONFORMITY WITH MAJOR STREET PLAN.
   The arrangement, character, width, grade and location of all streets shall conform to the Major Street Plan for the opening, widening or extension of any street, road or major thoroughfare as adopted by the Planning Commission or otherwise by ordinance of Council, in the public interest. Whenever a tract to be subdivided includes any part of such thoroughfare as approved or shown on the adopted plan such part shall be dedicated to the public for street purposes by the subdivider.
(Ord. 120-91. Passed 8-9-93.)
   1111.02 CONTINUATION OF EXISTING STREETS.
   Proposed streets shall, as near as practicable, provide for the continuation, connection or projection of streets in surrounding areas or conform to the plan for the neighborhood as may be adopted by the Planning Commission.
(Ord. 120-91. Passed 8-9-93.)
   1111.03 CIRCULATION.
   The street pattern shall provide ease of circulation within the subdivision, but the minor streets therein shall be so laid out that their use by through traffic will be discouraged. Insofar as practical, the street arrangement should provide proper access to schools, playgrounds, transportation and other community features. New street openings shall generally be prohibited within 600 feet of any major intersection or crossing such as those formed by a railroad and a highway, two or more highways or from the head of any major bridge, grade separation structure or like facilities, as measured along the centerline from the intersection or from such structure.
(Ord. 120-91. Passed 8-9-93.)
   1111.04 STREET INTERSECTIONS.
   Streets shall intersect one another at an angle as near to a right angle as possible and no intersection of streets at angles less than sixty degrees shall be approved.
(Ord. 120-91. Passed 8-9-93.)
   1111.05 STREET JOGS.
   Street jogs shall be avoided whenever possible. However, where permitted, those over ten feet shall be at least 125 feet apart as measured along the centerline offsets.
(Ord. 120-91. Passed 8-9-93.)
