1. Any subdivision resulting in five or more lots shall utilize an internal street, as opposed to having driveways entering onto a through street that existed prior to December 28, 1975. Lane or flag lots are prohibited.
2. For each tract of land in existence as of December 28, 1975, no more than four total new lots shall have been created since December 28, 1975, that are not served by such an internal street. Any additional new lot beyond such limit of four new lots that is proposed from such a tract shall be served by a new internal street, unless the applicant proves to the satisfaction of the Board of Supervisors at the time of a subdivision plan review that the use of a new or extended internal street is not possible. The Township may require that a provision be included on the deed of a new lot stating that the driveway must be relocated from a public through-street to a new or extended internal street if such access would be available in the future.
3. If an internal street is being extended or constructed, the developer shall provide an opportunity for owners of adjacent lots to connect a new driveway to the internal street if that lot owner agrees to close their driveway onto an existing public through-street.
4. New lots with rear yards abutting a public street must meet the reverse frontage buffer requirements of § 504 of this Ordinance.
5. If only a portion of a tract of land is proposed for subdivision at the present time, the Township may require that the applicant provide a concept plan of the entire tract to show how internal street access could be efficiently provided in the future.
