A. Access: All lots shall be accessed by a fully improved city street and shall meet the frontage requirements as stated in Title 10, Zoning Regulations. It shall be the responsibility of the Subdivider to provide proper road access to the Subdivision as required in the City Code, the Public Works Standards, and (where applicable) the Utah Department of Transportation. The mere existence of a public road or right-of-way to the proposed Subdivision does not mean that adequate access exists. It shall be the Subdivider's responsibility to construct and dedicate all public roads required by the City to provide access to the Subdivision.
B. Design Standards: All Subdivisions shall comply with the current adopted design standards set forth in the City Code and in the Public Works Standards.
C. Public Infrastructure And Improvements: The City Engineer shall have authority to require adjustments to the utility plan associated with a proposed Subdivision including adjustments to the type, manner, and location of utilities. Such adjustments to the utility plan may be required to provide connectivity among developments, provide for public safety, and minimize public infrastructure maintenance and liability.
D. Additional Reports And Studies:
1. Geotechnical reports as required by the Public Works Standards and the City Engineer.
2. A traffic study may be required by the City Engineer depending on his/her judgment regarding the size of the Subdivision, complex traffic movements involved with the proposal, interaction of streets with State roads, new traffic patterns, traffic volume in or near the Subdivision, history of crashes or expected crashes in the area, general safety, or anticipated traffic delays due to the Subdivision.
3. Storm water pollution protection as required by the Public Works Standards and City Code.
4. Wetland delineation and mitigation may be required as determined by the City Engineer.
E. Preservation Of Natural Conditions: The design and development of Subdivisions shall preserve insofar as possible the natural terrain, natural drainage, existing topsoil, and trees as determined by the Administrative Land Use Authority for the Preliminary Subdivision Applications.
F. Hazards: Land subject to hazardous conditions such as slides, mud flows, rock falls, faults, snow avalanches, possible mine subsidence, shallow water table, open quarries, floods, and polluted or non-potable water supply shall not be subdivided until complete mitigation of the hazards has been properly identified and included in the Subdivision Improvement Plans (see also Title 10-14).
