Long blocks (Blocks 1 and 5). Block 1 is a long bloCk because it backs up to existing Marshall Drive on its east side and to existing subdivision lots on its south side. It is the desire to keep access onto Marshall Drive to a minimum. There is no way to access through the existing subdivision lots. Block 5 is a long block because it backs up to Thompson Avenue, to which it is desired to keep access to a minimum onto the Mohave Channel, to which no access is desired, and to an unsubdi vided parcel, also to which it is desired to keep access to a minimum. 2. Double fronting lots are created at all locations along existing or proposed major streets at which no residential access is desired. All lots are provided access to the street on the other side of the lot. The walls will be constructed along the street where no access is desired. ~...... 3. Non-radial lot lines are created, in some cases, where there are knuckles or curves in the proposed streets. Also where it is difficult or impossible to maintain the desired lot configuration without having non-radial lot lines. In many cases having radial lot lines would create undesirable rear lot line dimensions or corner angles_ . . PRGE ~ DF 6 ~K 2~3D PG ~19 (FEE~9~-~0197) RESOLUTION NO. 94-233 Page 3 4. Deleting public utility easements from the rear of the lots. It is no longer the practice to place public utilities at the rear of the 10ts. All utilities are placed along the front property lines. Further, it is proposed to provide no easements on 60-foot streets. Discussion has been held with a representative of Citizens Utilities, and this company has nO interest in having easements at all because the developers now have the responsibili ty of digging trenches for the utilities. These are now placed when the streets and other utilities are constructed. However, it is proposed to provide an a-foot PUE on the front of the lots along 50-foot streets as the area behind the curb is a little tighter, and WHEREAS, the granting of detrimental to the public welfare properties because: this petition will not be or injurious to other adjacent 1. Long blocks: All long blocks are created to cut down access to busy streets, a drainage channel or adjacent property. All this is for the purpose of safety and maintaining the integrity of both the existing property and the new proposed subdivision lots. 2. Double fronting lots in all cases are created for the purpose of promoting safety by eliminating access from residential lots onto busy streets. The integrity of the lots will be maintained by constructing block walls along the sides of the lots fronting on these busy streets. 3. Non-radial 10t lines are for the purpose of maintaining reasonable lot line bearings and dimensions on lots along curved streets. This will maintain the integrity _~of the new lots and any adjoining existing properties. 4. Eliminating rear lot public utility easements is for the purpose of moving utili ties out into the street rights-of-way where they are more convenient for service and maintenance. This will be beneficial to the public welfare and will help maintain the integrity Of the residential lots because they will not have utili ty lines at the rear of the property which are subject to access, and WHEREAS, this request will not nullify the intent or purpose of the Master Plan of the County or other regulations because: . .

Double Fronting Lots: This request is necessary for lots along busy streets for which it is the policy to exclude access directly onto these streets. 3.
