The proposed development is an in -fill development and will use existing streets for access to the new private roadway easement. 16.33.200 DEAD-END STREETS. When it appears necessary to continue streets to an adjacent acreage, the streets shall be platted to the boundary or property line of the proposed subdivision without a turnaround. In all other cases, dead-end streets shall have a turnaround with a configuration approved by the Marion County department of public works. At this time, Public Works has not identified the need for any turnarounds; any that are constructed must be approved by Marion County. 16.33.300 UTILITY EASEMENTS. Utility easements meeting the approval to the standards of the affected utilities shall be provided to all newly created lots. LDEP is requiring a 4 -foot wide Public Utility Easement to the Hayesville Drive right-of-way. 16.33.320 STREET OR ROAD IMPROVEMENTS. All street or road improvements including pavement, curbs, sidewalks, signage, and surface drainage shall be in accordance with the specifications and standards prescribed by the director of public works. Subdivision plats shall not have final approval until such time as the director of public works, or his/her designee, is satisfied that the street improvements will be completed in accordance with the specifications and standards set forth by the Marion County department of public works. No building permits within a subdivision or partition shall be issued until the director of public works, or his/her designee, approves that the improvements have been completed or sufficient improvement agreements and financial guarantees have been recorded. LDEP identified necessary street improvements along the Hayesville Drive frontage and indicated the subdivision plat will not be approved until the requirements are satisfied. 7. Blocks and lots: These standards are listed in MCC 16.33.360 through 16.33.440 and include: 16.33.360 SUBDIVISION. Block lengths and widths shall be determined after considering the following factors: A. The distance and alignment of existing blocks and streets adjacent to or in the general vicinity of a proposed subdivision; B. Topography; C. Lot size; and D. Need for and direction of the flow of through and local traffic. Blocks shall not exceed 600 feet between street or road right-of-way lines unless the adjacent layout or special conditions juste greater length. Except where topographical or other physical features require otherwise, block widths shall not be less than 120 feet or greater than 400 feet. Due to the width, rectangular shape of the property, and existing development on two sides, this subdivision is an infill subdivision and will not have blocks. 16.33.400 LOT SIZE. All lots approved under this chapter shall have suff tient area to be consistent with the intent of the comprehensive plan and to provide adequate area for the intended structures and uses, all setbacks, access and spacing required for water supply and waste water disposal. Lot size and dimensions shall be as prescribed in the corresponding zone. In the RS zone, MCC 16.02.120 states: A. Lot Area. The minimum lot area for a single-family dwelling in a subdivision approved after the effective date of the ordinance codified in this title, is 4, 000 square feet when located within the Salem/Keizer area urban growth boundary. In all other cases lots shall be a minimum of 6, 000 square feet. (See Chapter 16.27 MCC for density limitations).
