A. Rural Standards: Eastern Summit County shall maintain rural infrastructure design standards. Infrastructure that is not consistent with these standards is not appropriate. Roadways shall be designed, engineered and constructed so as to minimize future maintenance costs, to alleviate hillside visual and functional problems and to avoid deep cuts.
B. Traffic Hazards: No development shall be approved which will create traffic hazards or which does not provide adequate access for service vehicles and emergency vehicles, including fire trucks, ambulances and sheriff vehicles, or which is not designed to facilitate reasonable removal or storage of snow from traffic areas.
C. Traffic Volume: No development shall be approved which generates traffic volumes that require roads to be built or existing roads to be expanded in a manner not consistent with the rural infrastructure standards identified in chapter 6 of this title.
D. Maintenance Responsibility: No major residential development shall be approved without adequate evidence of proper long term maintenance responsibilities of an association of the property owners for all privately maintained infrastructure, including, but not limited to, road maintenance, snow removal, fuel breaks for firefighting, and other specific requirements as may be appropriate.
