I. CONTENTS OF THE PRELIMINARY PLAT:
The preliminary plat may be comprised of one (1) or more
sheets. Each sheet shall be either 18" x 24" or 24" x 36" in size and shall be
drawn to a scale not less than 200 feet to an inch. The following information
shall be shown on the face of the preliminary plat:
B. Location of all section corners or subdivision corners
pertinent to the subdivision boundary;
C. Exterior boundaries of the tract to be subdivided
including bearings and distances sufficient to locate the exact area proposed
for subdivision;
D. All lots and blocks designated by numbers, approximate
dimensions scaled to the nearest foot, and the area of each lot estimated to the
nearest 0.1 acre;
|
Where the Average Slope of the Entire Site Is
|
Contour Intervals for the Entire Plat Shall Be
|
|
Under 10%
|
Two (2) feet
|
|
10% -- 15%
|
Five (5) feet
|
|
Over 15%
|
Ten (10) feet
|
If a uniform contour interval is not practical, the contour
interval may be changed for steep areas, if such a change is clearly
identifiable through shading or other appropriate graphic technique;
F. All existing and adjoining streets and alleys, avenues,
roads and highway, and width of the right-of-way with existing and proposed
street names and access points from the nearest public roads;
G. Any existing and proposed utilities, utility easements and
right-of-way easements located or proposed to be located on or adjacent to the
tract, including description of their width and purpose;
H. Location, boundaries, dimensions and areas of any parks or
areas dedicated for common or public use;
I. Location and size of existing buildings, structures and
improvements, if to be retained;
J. Designated one hundred year (100-year) floodway and/or
floodplain area, if any;
K. Location and size of all natural and environmental
features on the site including rivers, streams, springs, ponds, and
lakes.
L. For each lot where the obvious buildable area is in
question (general topography of the lot or immediate topography adjacent to the
primary access road exceeds 30%) show:
a. A typical building pad (measuring a minimum 40 foot
square) on undisturbed soil of 30% or less slope.
b. The building pad must be able to be accessed by a minimum
10 foot wide private drive with a maximum developed grade of 10%. Note that the
initial 20 feet of driveway surface shall not exceed 5% slope.
c. The driveway and building pad shall be identified on the
preliminary plat using minimum 2 foot contour intervals for clarity.
d. Any building pad which exceeds 25% in cross slope shall be
required to receive a favorable report and comply with the recommendations of a
geotechnical soils analysis conducted by a licensed engineer prior to final plat
approval.
e. Any lot failing to comply with standards a - c is
considered unbuildable.
