Tandem lot subdivisions are an appropriate method of subdividing parcels of land which, while adequate in size and shape for use, are otherwise lacking in accessibility, or are land remnants remaining from previous subdivisions, or which, due to topographical or other natural barriers or to outmoded subdivision practice or the like, have heretofore been either impractical or uneconomical to subdivide. Since certain of the lots being created may not have full access to public streets, they must therefore be particularly reviewed as to accessibility and serviceability. The following provisions relating to such subdivisions shall apply:

a.Tandem lot subdivisions of four or fewer lots may be processed as minor subdivisions; those containing five or more lots shall be processed as standard subdivisions.

b.All lots created by the subdivision shall meet the minimum lot size for the zoning district, exclusive of the area of land included within the access strip.

c.Where two or more lots share a common access way, appropriate easements shall be established in a form satisfactory to the City Attorney.
