§ 17.04.080. Site restrictions.

A.

No land shall be used or structure erected where the land is unsuitable for such use or structure by reason of flooding, concentrated runoff, inadequate drainage, adverse soil or rock formation, unfavorable topography, low bearing strength, erosion susceptibility, or any other feature likely to be harmful to the health, safety, prosperity, aesthetics and general welfare of this community. The city plan commission, in applying the provisions of this section, shall specify in writing the particular facts upon which it bases its conclusion that the land is not suitable for certain such unsuitability if he so desires. Thereafter, the city plan commission may affirm, modify or withdraw its determination of unsuitability.

B.

All lots shall abut upon a public street, and each lot shall have a minimum frontage of forty (40) feet. Primary vehicular access to each lot shall be via a public street only, not via a city-owned paved area. Premises with frontage on a public street may also have vehicular access via an alley for parking of vehicles by tenants, owners, and customers.

C.

All principal structures shall be located on a lot and only one principal structure shall be located, erected, or moved onto a lot.

D.

No zoning permit shall be issued for a lot which abuts a public street dedicated to only a portion of its proposed width if the lot is on that side of the roadway from which the required dedication has not been secured.
