This section is included in your selections.

A. The street system of a new subdivision or in an existing plat where new development is proposed must be coordinated with existing, proposed, and anticipated streets outside the subdivision or existing plat (hereafter referred to as “surrounding streets”).

B. Minor collector streets must intersect with surrounding major collector streets at safe and convenient locations.

C. Access collector streets must connect with surrounding streets where necessary:

1. To permit the convenient movement of traffic between residential neighborhoods;

2. To facilitate access to neighborhoods by emergency service vehicles; or

3. For other sufficient reasons, but connections will not be permitted where the effect would be to encourage the use of such streets by substantial through traffic.

D. This section covers requirements for connections to anticipated or proposed surrounding streets:

1. The street right-of-way must be extended; and

2. The street must be developed to the property line of the subdivided property or existing plat at the point where the connection to the anticipated or proposed street is expected.

E. In addition, the permit-issuing authority may require temporary turnarounds to be constructed at the end of the streets described in subsection D of this section, pending their extension when such turnarounds appear necessary to facilitate the flow of traffic or accommodate emergency vehicles.

F. No temporary dead end streets in excess of 600 feet may be created unless no other practicable alternative is available. [Ord. 378 § 2 (Exh. 1), 1999.]
