The following principles and standards shall be observed:
A. The side lines of all lots, so far as possible, should be at approximately right angles to the street which the lot faces, or approximately radial to the center of the curvature if such street is curved. Side lines of lots shall be approximately radial to the center of curvature of a cul-de-sac on which the lot faces.
C. No remnants of property, with the exception of one-foot control lots, shall be created which do not conform to lot requirements, or are not required for a private or public utility purpose.
D. The division of a lot or parcel by a tax code boundary shall be avoided.
E. Side lot lines between adjacent lots within a subdivision should be located at the top of any grading slope which may be proposed at such location.
F. Unless otherwise altered by the provisions of a planned unit development, the minimum lot depth for residential development shall be not less than 90 feet, with the following exception: Lots adjacent to freeways, major streets or collector roads shall utilize a minimum lot depth of 110 feet to provide sufficient separation from the road noise and to facilitate the usable lot area.
