Title 18 - Unified Development Ordinance

18.460.070 Subdivision Arrangement

Care shall be exercised in the design and laying out of streets, lots and other elements of a subdivision such that good planning principles are followed, efficient use is made of land, and natural assets such as trees and topography can be retained wherever practicable. Except as provided in Section 18.460.090, dead-end streets shall not be permitted except where such streets are provided to connect with future streets on adjacent land. Off-center street intersections with an offset of less than 150 feet between center lines shall not be permitted. Surface drainage easements shall be provided as necessary, and the City may require installation of pipe, masonry or rip-rap flumes, or such other protective devices in order that adjacent or surrounding property shall not be endangered and maintenance requirements will be kept to a minimum.
