A. All lots shall abut a street. Generally, the depth of a lot shall not exceed three (3) times the lot frontage. Some deviation from this provision may be permissible for topographical and drainage purposes, but not for the purpose of splitting a large tract into deeper than normal lots so that the provision of streets for proper access to lots can be avoided.

B. Double frontage lots shall not be platted, except that where desired along a highway, an arterial street or a railroad, lots may face on an interior street and back on such right-of-way. In that event a planting strip at least ten feet (10') in width shall be provided along the rear lot line.

C. Corner lots shall be wider than interior lots in order to permit appropriate setbacks from adjacent streets. Interior lots abutting a corner lot shall be wider than the average interior lot in order to permit a wider side yard adjacent to the corner lot.

D. Side lot lines shall be substantially at right angles or radial to street lines. Some variation from this rule is permissible, but pointed or very irregular lots shall be avoided.

E. No lot shall be divided by a municipal or county boundary line, road, alley or other lot.

F. Lot width and lot area shall not be less than that provided in Chapter 15.02 PMC for the district in which the subdivision is located.

G. All lots are subject to the additional yard standards as set forth in PMC 15.02.175 and all other provisions of this title. (Ord. 711 §1 (Exh. A), 2017)
