Uirrs <br />Subdivision 5. Double froncige Iocs, iccess co Iocs, ind frcnc/bsck loc divisions. <br />d- <br />A. Double frocuge lots. Double frcccige -cjid reversed frontage lots snail be <br />avoided excect where necessary to provide separation of residential <br />rievelcpment from traffic aneriais or to overcome specific disadvantages <br />of tocography and orientation. <br />B. Access from any arterial roadway. Lots shall not, in general, derive <br />access e.xclusiveiy from an arterial roadway. Where driveway access from <br />anv arterial roadway may be .necessary for several adjoming lots, the <br />Council may require that such lots be ser/ed by a combined access drive <br />in order to limit possible traffic hazard on such roadway. Where possible, <br />drivewavs shall be designed and arranged so as to avoid requiring vehicles <br />to back into traffic on any arterial roadway. <br />C. Front/back lot subdivisions. "Flag lots" and "easement back lots as <br />defined in this Chapter (see detiniuon of "Lot-Back") shall not be created. <br />Front/back lot divisions snail be allowed only in conjunction with the <br />creation of an outlet to provide access from the back lot to the public or <br />private read. Such outlet shall not be allowed as creditable lot area for <br />cither the back or front lots. Front/back lot subdivisions shall adhere to <br />the following standards: <br />1. Applicability. <br />a. Front/back lot divisions may be used when e.xisting <br />property dimensions are narrow and deep, such that lot <br />width does not allow for a side-by-side lot split, but <br />acreage is adequate to provide a "front lot" and a back lot <br />without requiring an area variance when the area of the <br />outlet access corridor is excluded. <br />b. Front/back lot divisions may be used for individual "lot <br />splits", but may cot be used when subdividing a large <br />parcel into numerous lots if creation of a back loc is merely <br />a convenience to the developer rather than supponed by <br />unique site factors. <br />c. A fronc/back lot division snail not be allowed when any <br />e.xisting residence on a neighboring property abuning the <br />proposed access outlet is located nearer its affected side lot <br />line rh;^n a distance equivalent • to the zenieg district <br />required front yard depth. <br />2. Dimensional standards for back lots shall be as follows: <br />a. Lot area shall be 150% of the zoning district requirement. <br />b.Lot width measured oarallel to the ffocc or street lot line at* <br />the street yard setback Line of a lakcshore back lot, or at <br />r. <br />L <br />r. <br />"Ir: <br />L <br />c <br />Cj <br />c. <br />c <br />r <br />c <br />r <br />r I <br />r <br />r <br />L <br />L'
