(1) Continuation of Existing Streets. Streets shall normally continue as an extension of existing streets unless good planning dictates a different solution. Street patterns shall take into consideration access needed to develop adjacent properties. Sketches of a proposed street system to serve adjoining properties may be required if it is owned by the subdivider.

(2) Dead-End Streets. Dead-end streets are prohibited; except, where the Comprehensive Plan or preliminary plat indicates a street is to continue past the subdivider’s property, the City may allow the dead end until such time as the street can be built through at a later date. Dead-end streets may be permitted in the R-S-20 and R-S-12 districts as provided in PMC 21.15.080.

(3) Half Streets. Half streets shall be prohibited except that the City may permit their inclusion in cases where a normal alignment of a present or future planned street will fall half on an adjoining ownership.

(4) Street Names. When practical, streets shall be named to conform with existing streets on the same or reasonably similar alignment. New street names shall be reviewed by the Planning Department, the Fire Department and/or the Emergency 911 Coordinator to ensure that no confusion with existing street names occurs.
