42-82. Road Frontage and Existing Off-Site Access

Tracts to be subdivided must have a minimum of: (1) 30 feet of frontage on an existing public road, or (2) private

rights-of-way no less than 30 feet in width to a public road. Applicants shall have the burden to prove private right-of-

way and existing off-site access is legal, permissible and permanent (evidence may include property deed, title search,

recorded plat, or other documentation provided by the applicant).

Where the minimum frontage and off-site access requirements cannot be met the maximum number of lots

into which a tract may be divided shall be no more than one (1) lot per acre.

Where the minimum road frontage and existing off-site access requirements can be met but the grade of the

road at any point in the existing off-site access exceeds 18 percent (paved) or 15 percent (gravel), and the applicant is

proposing more than five (5) lots, the approving agency will review the application on a case-by-case basis.
