BOULEVARD: A street with a median reflecting the boulevard character and so indicated by the name (also applied to parkways). A major thoroughfare running in a diagonal direction, rather than east-west or north-south. It must connect at least two (2) sections and act as a collector.
COURTS: Permanently closed streets such as cul-de-sacs. Horseshoe shaped streets generally designated by one name throughout their entire length. East-west streets less than five hundred feet (500') in length.
DRIVES: Winding thoroughfares, diagonal, curvilinear, or other types of roads not previously mentioned. Roads that meander about and continue through to other rights of way.
HIGHWAYS: Designated state or federal highways. This term could be used even when a road generally runs north-south or east-west. U.S. routes are designated as highways.
INTERSTATE: Roads of the highest order, characterized by limited access, wide right of way, prohibited adjacent to development and with through traffic preference.
LANES: Reduced rights of way branching from courts, places, or ways. Curving streets of less than five hundred feet (500'). An uninterrupted street ending in a cul-de-sac and generally designated by a name.
LOOPS AND CIRCLES: Circles could be short streets that return to themselves. Loops could be short drives that begin and end in the same street.
PARKWAYS: (Also see definition of Boulevard.) A special scenic route or park drive, generally designated by a name.
PATHS: A minor local street running in a diagonal direction, usually between a north-south "street" and an east-west "avenue"; a path may also be a diagonal connector between offset portions of a north-south or east-west collector thoroughfare.
PLACE: A cul-de-sac or permanent dead end road. North-south streets less than five hundred feet (500') in length.
ROADS: Limited thoroughfares that are frequently used, have heavy traffic volume, and run in any direction. Secondary facilities connecting with a U.S. or state primary highway.
STREETS AND AVENUES: Streets run north and south and avenues run east and west, but this may be reversed in municipal areas previously addressed by other authorities using a different method.
TRAILS: A diagonal local street serving as a collector for one or more local thoroughfares.
WAYS: Dead end rights of way under five hundred feet (500') running at oblique angles to the four (4) points of the compass. If there are three (3) or more homes off a main road, the road is designated on the grid, even if it is private. (Ord. O 09-08, 10-6-2009)
