Every lot shall abut on a street.

(1) Lots with double frontage shall be avoided when possible.

(2) Corner lots in residential districts shall be designed to allow for appropriate setbacks of a building from both streets.

(3) Side lines of lots shall be approximately at right angles to the street line or radial to curved street lines.

(4) A plat containing lots adjacent to an arterial street shall not be approved unless the plat recites a waiver of the right of direct access to the arterial. Exceptions to this requirement may be permitted due to pre-existing development patterns that create practical difficulties for limiting arterial access.

(5) Lots without public frontage may only be approved in residential zones where, due to geometric, topographic, or other physical features in proportion to the size of the development, it would be impractical to extend or build a publicly dedicated street. Regulations can be found in PMC 21.20.060. [Ord. 4444 § 1, 2019; Ord. 3398 § 2, 1999; Code 1970 § 26.16.050.]
