Municode Page 1 of 1 <br /> Sec. 18-136. Residential driveways, approaches and turnaround. <br /> (a) One driveway approach shall be allowed from up to two single residential parcels of land to <br /> the same road, provided that appropriate easements exist between parties sharing the <br /> driveway and driveway approach. Parcels having frontage on more than one public road <br /> shall be allowed a driveway approach to one public road. <br /> �b) Residential driveway approach shall not exceed 20 feet in width at the intersected right-of- <br /> way line. <br /> ��) The total width of driveway approaches to up to two single parcels of land from a single road <br /> shall not exceed 20 feet. <br /> �d) A curb cut shall not exceed the width of the driveway approach at the property line by more <br /> than ten feet. <br /> �e) No portion of a driveway approach, except the curb return, shall be constructed within 100 <br /> feet of a corner. <br /> �fl For residences constructed after July 25, 1986, the driveway approach and that part of the <br /> driveway and turnarounds which drain to the road shall be paved with bituminous concrete <br /> blacktop or equivalent paving. Where it has been determined by the city's public service <br /> director that driveway and/or driveway approach existing on July 25, 1986, is causing a <br /> maintenance problem on the road, including but not limited to the washing of dirt and gravel <br /> into the road, the public services director shall order that the property owner pave such <br /> portion of the driveway and/or driveway approach as is necessary to remove the <br /> maintenance problem. Portland cement concrete will only be allowed from the driveway up to <br /> the public right-of-way. This requirement shall not be construed to reduce paving otherwise <br /> required by perFormance standards in chapter 78 or required as a condition to the granting of <br /> a conditional use permit, lot division, subdivision or as designated in the approved site plan. <br /> �9) Driveway turnarounds shall be required on all driveways or driveway approaches entering <br /> onto a state highway, county road or collector roadway as determined in the comprehensive <br /> plan, and on all entrances to public roads within the city where deemed necessary by the <br /> public services director, based on traffic counts, sight distances, street grades and other <br /> relevant factors. If a driveway turnaround is required by the public services director, such <br /> requirement shall be stated on any permit issued by him pursuant to this article. <br /> (Code 1984, §§6.05(9), 6.06(9)) <br /> http://library.municode.com/print.aspx?h=&clientID=13094&HTMRequest=http%3 a%2f%... 9/5/2013 <br />
