(22-5)(a)

General provisions.

(22-5)(a)(1)

Purpose. The master street plan identifies the location and type of roadway facilities that are needed to meet projected growth and ensure mobility and access for the public. The objective of the master street plan is to ensure adequate right-of-way is preserved to allow for orderly and efficient roadway expansion if needed.

(22-5)(a)(2)

Street types established.

a.

The following street types are established, and are shown on the map in the comprehensive plan adopted on August 24, 2015, which is herein made a part of this chapter and is on file in the clerk's office:

1.

Arterials serve major centers of metropolitan areas, provide a high degree of mobility and can also provide mobility through rural areas. Unlike their access-controlled counterparts, abutting land uses can be served directly. Forms of access include driveways to specific parcels and at-grade intersections with other roadways.

2.

Collectors serve a critical role in the roadway network by gathering traffic from local roads and funneling them to the arterial network. Within the context of functional classification, collectors are broken down into major collectors and minor collectors.

3.

Local roads are not intended for use in long distance travel, except at the origin or destination end of the trip, due to their provision of direct access to abutting land. Bus routes generally do not run on local roads. Local roads are often designed to discourage through traffic. As public roads, they should be accessible for public use throughout the year.

(22-5)(a)(3)

Right-of-way requirements.

a.

Master street plan proposed minimum widths.
