§ 1400-510. ACCESS TO PUBLIC STREETS  


Latest version.
  • All lots or parcels created by the subdivision of land shall have access to public streets improved to standards hereinafter required. Private streets shall not normally be permitted. However, if the Planning Commission finds that the most logical development of land requires that lots be created which are served by a private street or other means of access, and makes such findings in writing with the reasons therefore, then such access may be approved by the Planning Commission. The subdivider shall submit a development plan showing the alignment, width, grade, and material specifications of any proposed private street, the topography and means of access to each lot, drainage and sewerage of the lots served by such private streets and a plan satisfactory to the Board of Supervisors for ownership and maintenance of said street and the liability for taxes thereon. Construction of the private street or access shall be completed prior to occupancy of any buildings on lots served by a private street.
