(a) The requirement of curbs or curbs and gutters will vary in accordance with the character of the area and the density of development involved. In urban and suburban areas, curbs are necessary to control storm water run-off and to clearly define driving and parking areas.
(b) Where residential lot frontages are less than one hundred feet in commercial developments or where other similar intensive urban uses exist or are anticipated, curbs shall be ordinarily required. The installation of curbs may be required on major, secondary and minor highways if such construction is deemed necessary for public safety.
(c) Where curbs exist on abutting properties, their extension will ordinarily be required throughout the proposed subdivision.
(d) Where curbs are not required, adequate ditches shall be connected to a sufficient outlet, graded and protected by seeding or appropriate surfacing.
(e) Curbs may be of the wall type or may be combined with gutters built of concrete. Curbs shall be constructed in conformance with the current Public Works Improvements Design Manual of the Engineering Department as it may pertain to this type of improvement.
