The planning and development of lots shall be done in such a manner so as to assure compliance with Chapter 154. In order to help achieve this result, every subdivider shall comply with the requirements herein.
(A) All lots in any subdivision within the city shall conform to the minimum lot area and dimension requirements of the zoning district in which the subdivision is located.
(B) All lots in any subdivision outside the city shall conform to the minimum lot area and dimension requirements of the city's zoning district which is most appropriate, as determined by the Administrator of this code.
(C) Land contained with natural lakefront lots that is under water when the lake is at its 100-year pool elevation, or land reserved for street improvements, shall not be counted in determining compliance with minimum lot size requirements.
(D) If possible, the creation of through lots should be avoided in all new subdivisions.
(E) Every corner and through lot shall be large enough to permit compliance with the zoning district's front setback requirement on every side of the lot that faces a street.
(F) All lot remnants shall be added to adjacent lots to avoid the creation of unbuildable or nonconforming parcels.
(G) All side lot lines shall be at right angles to straight street right-of-way lines or radial to curved street right-of-way lines, except where the City Engineer has determined that a deviation from this requirement will provide a street and lot design more beneficial to the city.
(H) All side lot lines of lots which front a cul-de-sac shall be at right angles to the centerline of the cul-de-sac until the point at which the centerline meets the center of the cul-de-sac turnaround. Side lot lines beyond that point shall be radial to the center of the cul-de-sac turnaround except where the City Engineer has determined that a deviation from this requirement will provide a street and lot design more beneficial to the city.
(I) Land contained within the 100-year pool elevation for stormwater detention/retention ponds shall not be counted in determining compliance with minimum lot size requirements.
