a. All new collector and local streets shall connect with surrounding streets at safe and convenient locations as required by the Director to allow convenient movement of traffic and reasonable access for emergency vehicles.

b. When connections to surrounding streets are proposed or required by the City, public right-of-way shall be dedicated and streets developed to existing paved rights-of-way.

c. Where there is no paved street between the subdivision and an existing paved street, an interim street, improved in accordance with local street standards, shall be constructed by the applicant for developments with densities in excess of one residential unit per two acres of land.

d. Whenever possible, proposed intersections along one side of a street shall coincide with existing or proposed intersections on the opposite side of such street. Where a centerline offset (jog) occurs at an intersection, the distance between centerlines of the intersecting streets shall be not less than required by the Engineering Standards Manual.

e. The street pattern shall not cause adjacent property to be landlocked nor prevent access to public land.

a. Streets shall be arranged in relation to existing topography to produce streets of reasonable gradient to facilitate adequate drainage and to produce desirable lots of maximum utility.

b. Where a subdivision abuts or contains the right-of-way of a drainage way, a limited access highway or an irrigation ditch or abuts a commercial or industrial land use, the Director may require the location of a street approximately parallel to and on each side of this right-of-way at a distance suitable for appropriate use of the intervening land. This distance shall be determined with due regard for approach grades, drainage, bridges or future grade separations.

a. Streets shall be related appropriately to the expected use of the property. Minimum requirements for street right-of-way, pavement width, and other standards for public and private streets are set forth in the Engineering Standards Manual.

b. Other designs and materials may be required for the construction of streets, curbs, and sidewalks when, in the determination of the City Engineer, such methods would be more environmentally desirable or more in keeping with the design of the development or neighborhood.

c. Turnarounds shall be provided at the ends of cul-de-sacs and at elbows on one-way streets. Turnarounds shall meet the minimum requirements of the Sedona Fire District.
