Arrangement And Design: The lot arrangement and design shall be such that lots will provide satisfactory and desirable sites for buildings, and be properly related to topography and to existing and probable future requirements.

Area And Width Requirements; Exceptions: All lots shown on the subdivision plat must conform to the minimum area and width requirements of this title, unless:

A variance is granted by the board of adjustment; or

Where it conforms to the cluster subdivision provisions of the zoning ordinance or the condominium project provisions of this title.

Frontage On Public Street: Each lot shall have frontage on a public street dedicated by the subdivision plat, or an existing publicly dedicated street, or on a street which has become public by right of use and is at least seventy five feet (75') wide. Interior lots having frontage on two (2) streets shall be prohibited, except where unusual conditions make any other design undesirable. (Ord. 86-3, 3-11-1986)

Area And Width: Each lot shall have not less than ten thousand (10,000) square feet in area and be not less than seventy five feet (75') wide. (Ord. 86-3, 3-11-1986; amd. 2004 Code)

Corner Lot Setback Requirements: Buildings constructed on corner lots shall comply with the minimum setback for both streets, as provided in the zoning ordinance.

Side Lines At Right Angles: Side lines of lots shall be at approximately right angles to the street line, or radial to the street line.

Remnants Of Lots: Remnants of lots less than the minimum size required by zoning after the subdividing of a larger tract shall be added to adjacent lots rather than allowed to remain as unusable parcels. In no event shall the subdivision of land create a lot which does not conform to the subdivision requirements of the city.

Ownership: Where the land included in a subdivision includes two (2) or more parcels in separate ownership and the lot arrangement is such that a property ownership line divides one or more lots, the land in each lot so divided shall be transferred by deed to either single or joint ownership before the approval of the final plat, and such transfer certified to the planning commission by the county recorder.

Natural Drainage And Other Easements: The planning commission shall, unless waived for good and sufficient cause, require that easements for storm water drainage through a subdivision and adjoining property be provided by the subdivider; and easements of not less than fifteen feet (15') in width for water, sewers, drainage, power lines and other utilities shall be provided in the subdivision. Where natural drainage channels controlled by the state engineer and/or U.S. corps of engineers cross a subdivision, the subdivider must obtain the necessary permits to modify such drainage facilities from the appropriate agencies.

Irrigation Water: No open gravity flow irrigation ditches shall be permitted within the boundary of a subdivision or minor subdivision. All necessary irrigation ditches, whether used for the purpose of transporting irrigation or waste flow water, must be maintained within a subdivision or minor subdivision, and must be replaced with a pipe culvert. This pipe culvert shall be at least fifteen inch (15") diameter concrete pipe and satisfactory to the irrigation water users. The developer of a subdivision or minor subdivision must provide for the rights of all irrigation users, both upstream and downstream of the proposed development.

Pressure Irrigation System:

All irrigation water, if available, to be used within a subdivision or minor subdivision shall be delivered through a piped pressure irrigation system. All aboveground outlets from this system shall be painted with weather resistant international orange paint to signify nonpotable water and shall be so labeled. The pipe and valve shall extend a minimum of twelve inches (12") above finished grade. All pressure irrigation systems shall be submitted to the city engineer for approval.

It shall be illegal for any person to connect together a culinary water system and a non potable water system by any method.

Sprinkler systems for yard and lawn watering connected to a culinary water system shall be required to install an air vacuum valve to prevent contamination of the culinary water supply. (Ord. 86-3, 3-11-1986)
