(a) A residential street designed to be a permanent cul-de-sac, which contains central water service and fire hydrants for its full length, may serve up to twenty-five (25) lots; otherwise a permanent cul-de-sac shall not be longer than one thousand (1,000) feet in residential areas. In commercial/ industrial parks cul-de-sacs shall not be longer than one thousand three hundred (1,300) feet.
(b) Permanent cul-de-sacs shall be provided at the closed end with a paved turnaround:
(1) Those without center islands shall have an outside pavement radius of at least forty-five (45) feet and a street right-of-way line radius of at least sixty (60) feet or, such greater dimension as agreed upon by the Developer, the Township and the County Engineer.
(2) Those with center islands shall have an outside pavement radius of at least fifty (50) feet and a street right-of-way line radius of at least sixty-five (65) feet or, such greater dimension as agreed upon by the Developer, the Township and the County Engineer.
(c) Interior streets terminating at the allotment boundary and subject to possible future extension shall be provided with a temporary cul-de-sac with a turn around having the same radii as required for permanent cul-de sacs and built to permanent road construction standards until such time as the road is extended and excess right-of-way is released to adjacent landowners. The cul-de-sac shall be in the nature of a turning circle constructed on a temporary easement over the premises included in said turning circle, but beyond the right-of-way boundaries of the street proper and shall cease to exist and shall be eliminated when said street is legally extended by dedication.
The easement shall be of sufficient dimensions to include the required turning circle radii and all ditches, drains, and pipes required to drain the turnaround properly. The easement must be shown on the Improvement Plans and record Final Plat as required by the County Engineer. The Developer that extends the street is required to remove the temporary cul-de-sac and restore the disturbed property.
(d) If a dead-end street extends only the depth of the corner lot past a street intersection, no turnaround will be required. Developers shall be required to provide a two (2) foot reservation strip in the name of the County of Summit at the end of all dead-end streets. This strip will become public highway only upon extension of the dedicated street.
Length of cul-de-sac shall be measured from intersection of nearest through road
(non-dead end street) to center of most remote cul-de-sac. Length of cul-de-sac
shall not be measured from the intersection of another dead end street.
