§ SR-20. Lots and blocks.  


Latest version.
  • A. 
    Lots shall conform to the Zoning Code and shall be of ample size to permit usable side and rear yards of practical dimensions. The lot size shall not be large enough to permit resubdividing. Lot lines should generally be at right angles to the street line.
    B. 
    Blocks shall not be excessively long, thereby causing unnecessary travel on the streets. In general, no block should be more than 1,200 feet in length.
    C. 
    Wherever practical, in the opinion of the Planning Board, lots shall not face or front directly on (that is to say, have ingress from or egress to) a primary or secondary highway but shall front on a minor interior street or a marginal access street. In the case of lots abutting a primary or secondary highway and fronting on a minor interior street, the 10 feet nearest the primary or secondary highway shall be restricted for planting; the plat shall carry a note prohibiting access from such lots to the primary or secondary highway. A declaration to that effect shall be recorded in the office of the Town Clerk, and the deeds of these lots shall carry restrictions as may be approved by the Planning Board. The Planning Board may require adequate fencing and/or screening.
