Maximum driveway width at the right-of-way line shall be twenty feet (20'). All drive approaches shall be constructed to a maximum grade within the right-of-way of six percent (6%).

Where private streets, drives, entrances, and alleys intersecting public streets, the public street curb and gutter shall remain continuous across the access and depressed where needed.
The contractor shall notify the Village forty eight (48) hours prior to placing the concrete drive approach for an inspection of the base, reinforcing and formwork.
All drive approaches shall be constructed as a minimum to the standards outlined in the Village's zoning ordinance (title 11 of this Code).
For commercial and industrial drives, a stop sign shall be installed outside of the right-of-way at the request of the Village Engineer. The sign shall meet Village standards as outlined in the Zoning Code and shall be owned and maintained by the property owner. (Ord. 2018-02-20, 2-20-2018)
