(A) Size and shape. The size, shape, width and orientation of building sites shall be appropriate for the type of development and use contemplated, and shall be consistent with the residential lot size provisions of Ch. 157 of this code of ordinances.

(B) Access. Each lot and parcel shall abut upon a street other than an alley for a width of at least 20 feet.

(C) Through lots and parcels. Through lots and parcels shall be avoided, except where they are essential to provide separation of residential development from major arterials or adjacent non-residential activities or to overcome specific disadvantages of topography and orientation.

(D) Lot and parcel lines. The lines of lots and parcels, as far as practicable, shall run at right angles to the street upon which they face; except that, on curved streets they shall radial to the curve.

(E) Large building sites. In dividing tracts into large lots or parcels which at some future time are likely to be re-divided, the Planning Commission may require that the blocks be of such size and shape, be so divided into building sites and contain such site restrictions as will provide for extension and opening of streets at intervals which will permit a subsequent division of any tract into lots or parcels of smaller size.
