§ 21-1-20 ALLEYS; LOCATION.
   (A)   An alley shall be provided at the rear of every lot used or proposed to be used for business purposes. Provided, however, a subdivision may be approved without an alley at the rear of a lot, if the following conditions are met:
      (1)   The applicant has provided and will maintain access sufficient for emergency vehicles and city vehicles needed for trash, sewer, water, or other city services, as well as access for delivery vehicles; or
      (2)   The applicant has provided and will maintain an access easement(s) sufficient for the city to use for emergency vehicles, other city vehicles for trash, sewer, or water.
   (B)   If the owner agrees to provide access under divisions (A)(1) or (A)(2) above, in either situation, the city, through its Planning and Development Department, Public Works Department, and Fire Department (“Departments”), will conduct a review of the proposed subdivision to determine if sufficient access or easements are present. If the Departments make such a determination, they will recommend the Mayor or Council President sign a written waiver on behalf of the city for the required alley and its location.
