Provision for Platting Adjoining Unplatted Areas: "The arrangement of streets in new subdivisions shall be such as to facilitate, and coordinate with the desirable future platting of adjoining unplatted property of a similar character, and to provide for local circulation and convenient access to neighborhood facilities." I A(8) "Half streets.- New half or partial streets shall not be permitted except where essential to reasonable subdivision of a tract in conformance with this article or where satisfactory assurance for dedi- cation of the remaining part of the street is provided. Whenever a tract to be subdivided borders on an existing half or partial street, the other part of the street shall be dedicated within such tract." This requested right-of-way was not included on the Preliminary Plat. STAFF POSITION: Minimum standards set forth in the County's Subdivision Ordinance and the D:O.T. minimum standards should be maintained. These include: 1. Twenty feet of pavement and an unobstructed right-of-way. 2. A half -street on the south property line. 3. There is a structure on a proposed easement which should be removed prior to -approval. 4. The curves are not appropriately designed for resi- dential traffic. 5.. The proposed right-of-way coming within 10 feet of an existing structure, would create a setback violation. Staff recommends the Preliminary Plat Approval be denied. Engineer James Beindorf, representing the owner, Dr. Radin, approached the Board, and commented that Dr. Radin intends to have a private road through the subdivision. then briefly discussed the ordinance for private roads, and also referred to the D.O.T.
