Section 606 Blocks

A.                 The configuration of blocks and lots shall be based upon the lot area requirements, the salient natural features, the existing man-made features, and the proposed type of structure.

 

B.                 Lot configurations should provide for flexibility in building locations while providing safe vehicular and pedestrian circulation.

 

C.                 Lots with areas that are two (2) or more times the minimum requirements shall, wherever feasible, be designed with configurations that allow for additional subdivision.

 

D.                 Block length in a residential subdivision shall not exceed one thousand five hundred (1,500) feet.

 

E.                  Blocks in non-residential areas may vary from the above requirement for residential blocks when required by the nature of the use.  Adequate provisions shall be made for off-street parking, loading areas and traffic circulation.
