General provisions
4 rules that bind every district rather than one — sign regulations, parking, floodplain and the rest of the code’s citywide chapters.
In hillside subdivisions the dedicated widths of all streets, other than arterial and collector streets, shall be not less than forty (40) feet. With lot frontage on both sides of the street the paved roadway widths shall be not less than thirty (30) feet; with lot frontage on one side of the street only the paved roadway widths shall be not less than twenty-four (24) feet.
In hillside subdivisions where lots front on both sides of a street, each such lot shall have an area of not less than eight thousand (8,000) square feet with an average frontage of not less than eighty (80) feet and the minimum width of any such lot shall be not less than sixty (60) feet at the front building line. A five-foot paved sidewalk on both sides of the street shall be provided. In hillside subdivisions where lots front on one side of a street only, each such lot shall have an area of not less than six thousand (6,000) square feet and a minimum width of not less than sixty (60) feet at the front building line or the minimum required by the zoning regulations, whichever is greater. A five-foot paved sidewalk on the same side of the street as the accessible lots shall be provided, and a reserve strip of land one foot in width along the inaccessible side shall be granted in fee to the city.
In hillside subdivisions where lots front on both sides of a street and have an average area of not less than one acre, the average frontage of each of such lots shall be not less than one hundred (100) feet and the minimum width of any such lot shall be not less than eighty (80) feet at the front building line. A five-foot graded sidewalk area on both sides of the street shall be provided. In hillside subdivisions where lots front on one side of the street only and have an average area of not less than one acre, the average frontage of each of such lots shall be not less than one hundred (100) feet and the minimum width of any such lot shall be not less than eighty (80) feet at the front building line. A five-foot graded sidewalk area on the same side of the street as the accessible lots shall be provided, and a reserve strip of land one foot in width along the inaccessible side shall be granted in fee to the city.
Before any subdivider may file a map of a subdivision of hillside lands wherein the provisions of Section 16.28.060 are applicable, he or she shall first apply for, and obtain, unless the land to be included in the division shall then be in such district, a change of the district to the residential classification requiring a minimum lot size of twenty-five thousand (25,000) square feet.
