A. Land shall be reasonably suited to the purpose for which it is to be subdivided, whether for residential, business, industrial or recreational use.
B. The lot arrangement and design shall be such that all lots will provide satisfactory and desirable building sites properly related to topography and the character of surrounding development.
C. All corner lotS, whether they are located at the intersection of the rights-of-way of two (2) STREETS or of an ALLEY and a STREET shall have a curve with a minimum radius of twenty-five (25) feet adjoining the two (2) side lines of said rights-of-way.
D. Business or industrial lots shall conform to Chapter 208, Zoning, and also shall be of such size and shape as may be suitable for their prospective use and to provide sufficient space for off-STREET parking and loading and water supply and sanitary sewage disposal (if either or both are to be provided by individual on-lot facilities).
E. General standards.
1. Within the requirements of Chapter 208, Zoning, the size, shape and orientation of lots shall be appropriate for the type of development and use contemplated.
2. Insofar as practical, side lot lines shall be at right angles to straight lines or radial to curved STREET lines. Acute angles or small projections should be avoided. However, different lot shapes will be permitted if they can be shown to be necessary or desirable to relate building sites to the terrain or to provide better site utilizations and building relationships.
3. Where feasible, lot lines shall follow rather than cross township boundaries in order to avoid jurisdictional problems.
4. Depth and width of parcels intended for nonresidential uses shall be adequate for the use proposed and sufficient to provide satisfactory space for on-site parking, loading, unloading, setbacks, landscaping, etc.
F. Lot Frontage.
1. All subdivisions shall have LOT FRONTAGE on an existing or proposed public or private STREET.
2. Where a CORNER LOT OR DOUBLE FRONTAGE LOT fronts on a public residential STREET, a note on the plan must indicate that lots must access interior residential STREETS; access to arterial or collector STREETS is prohibited.
G. Lot access. Residential lots having direct access to an arterial STREET shall be avoided whenever possible.
H. Flag Lots. Flag lots are permitted subject to the following:
1. The "flagpole" shall maintain a width of at least fifty (50) feet from the front lot line to the front edge of the "flag".
2. The flagpole shall not be a private STREET, but shall be an integral portion of the lot.
3. The flagpole shall remain free of any structures, and a note is included on the Final SUBDIVISION Plan that this area is non-buildable.
4. The front lot line of the flag lot is at the end of the flagpole so that front yards for flag lots must not include the flagpole, and must abut the rear yard of the front lot
5. No more than two (2) flag lots are permitted in any subdivision.
6. The area of the lot located within the flagpole shall not be counted toward meeting the minimum lot requirement size for the district in which the flag lot is located.
