§ 17.28 — Fort Jones Planning Code

Sec. 17.28.010. - Subdivisions of one acre or larger.¶

Where a parcel is subdivided into lots of one acre or more, the town council may require that the blocks shall be of such size and shape and be so divided into lots as to provide for the extension and opening of streets and alleys at such intervals as will permit a subsequent division of any parcel into lots of normal size.

(Code 1987, § 17.28.010; Ord. No. 23-1974, § 20, 1974)

Sec. 17.28.020. - Lot requirements.¶

(a)

The size and shape of lots shall be in conformance to any zoning regulations effective in the area of the proposed subdivision and shall not be less than the regulations specified therein, but in no case shall any lot have a depth of less than 75 feet. The town council may recommend the granting of exceptions to this provision where there are unusual topographic conditions, curved or cul-de-sac streets or other special conditions. In unclassified districts, the town council shall specify the size and shape of all lots.

(b)

The side lines of all lots, as far as possible, shall be at right angles to the street which the lot faces, or radial or approximately radial, if the street is curved.

(c)

Front building setback lines shall be indicated by dotted lines on the subdivision map, as required by the town council.

(d)

No lot shall be divided by a town boundary line.

(e)

Lots without frontage on a dedicated street will not be permitted.

(f)

Lots, other than corner lots, may front on more than one street only when necessitated by topographic or other unusual conditions.

(g)

No cut or fill slope shall be steeper than 1½ to one.
