Street plugs

A. Where necessary to give access to or permit a satisfactory subdivision of adjoining land, streets shall be extended to the boundary of the subdivision, and all improvements constructed up to the point of termination of such streets. Temporary turnarounds at resulting dead-end streets may be required by the director when they are needed to fit the requirements of the particular situation. B. Either street plugs or reserve strips shall be required to preserve the objectives of street extensions according to the general plan or a plan for the neighborhood. The director shall determine whether street plugs or reserve strips will be required in a particular location. In making his determination, the director shall consider all of the following criteria: 1. An equitable distribution of street extension costs between subdividers of adjoining subdivisions; 2. The primary beneficiary of a future street extension should bear the major share of the costs of installation of improvements; 3. Where subdivisions of adjoining lands is unlikely in the immediate future, reserve strips are preferred. (Ord. 789 § 1 (part), 1974: prior code § 11-1.9(c)(5))
