All plats must conform to the following lot design standards:

1.

The lot depth, shape and orientation, and the minimum building setback lines shall be appropriate for the location of the subdivision and on the type of development and use contemplated.

2.

Lot dimensions shall conform to the requirements of the city's zoning code.

3.

Each lot shall be provided, by means of a public street with satisfactory access to an existing public street, or, in the case of units within a townhouse site, or cluster development, each lot shall be provided perpetual right of access by private street or roadway to an existing public street.

4.

Double frontage or through lots shall be avoided except where essential to provide separation of residential development from traffic arteries or to overcome specific disadvantages of topography or orientation. A decorative masonry wall or, in the sole discretion of the city engineer, a combination of fence and landscaping that proves a satisfactory buffer may be required along the rear property line, across which there shall be no right of vehicular access. This portion of the block line shall be shown as a limited access line on the final plat.

5.

Side lot lines shall, where possible, be substantially at right angles or radical to street lines.
