Ordinances-1979-81

(7) Lots with double frontage on front and rear shall be avoided, except in specific locations where good platting indicates their use. (8) Side lines of lots shall approximate right angles to straight street lines and radial angles to curved street lines except where a variation will provide a better street and lot layout. For purposes of this subparagraph (8), "approximate right angles" means angles between eighty (80) and one hundred (100) degrees. (9) Arterial and collector streets in a subdivision shall extend through to the boundaries thereof. When an arterial, collector or local street shall extend to the boundaries of the subdivision, the developer shall provide, pursuant to the specifications of the city, for a connection of such streets with the improved portion of any roadway of any street outside the boundary of the subdivision which abuts the subdivision and which would connect with the street in the subdivision itself. Or, if such street is unimproved, such extension shall be to a point in the right-of-way of the abutting and connecting street, as determined by the director of the department of public works to be necessary for the public interest. (10) In the event arterial or collector streets are required in the subdivision, the city shall pay for the excess of pavement required over that required for a twenty-nine (29) foot local street. This excess shall be considered a strip in the center of the pavement. The cost of this shall be calculated by the city engineer's office. The procedure of such cost-sharing shall be pursuant to the rules and regulations as prescribed by the city council. (b) Continuation and extension of arterial and collector streets. New subdivisions shall make provisions for continuation and extension of arterial and collector streets.
