12-906 : Requirements for the construction or maintenance of a driveway approach.

The location of each driveway approach shall be determined by the building inspector based on an on sight inspection of the property for which the request was made. In determining the location of a driveway approach the building inspector shall be guided by the following regulations.

  1. No driveway approach shall be permitted within five feet (5') of the right-of-way of intersecting streets.
  2. No driveway or series of driveway approaches serving other than residential property shall be permitted to be constructed in such a way that the exit from said property would be accomplished by backing vehicles into street right-of-way or roadway.
  3. Maximum width for residential driveways shall be fifteen feet (15') for single driveways and twenty-four feet (24') for double driveways with not more than one driveway approach permitted on lots with less than seventy-five feet (75') frontage on a public road.
  4. Maximum width for commercial driveways shall be thirty-five feet (35') in width.
  5. All drainage culverts for driveway approaches shall be installed by the developer or builder. The size openings to be provided shall be determined by Talbot's formula, but in no case shall the pipe be less than fifteen inches (15") in diameter. (Ord. #24, April 1978)
