The offer for dedications to the county pursuant to the Subdivision Map Act shall be as follows for property adjoining county roads:
A. 50-foot right-of-way for local roads;
B. 60-foot right-of-way for collector roads;
C. 60-foot right-of-way for major roads;
D. 80-foot right-of-way for arterial roads.
Note: This offer is for both the parcel being split out and for the remainder of the contiguous property owned adjacent to all county roads. (Ord. 664 §1(part), 1978).
17.92.020 Offer for dedication requirements.
The offer for dedication to the county and the rejection of such offer subject to acceptance by resolution of the board of supervisors at any time thereafter shall be as follows:
A. For property within the subdivision:
1. 50-foot right-of-way for local roads;
2. 60-foot right-of-way for collector roads;
3. 60-foot right-of-way for major roads;
4. 80-foot right-of-way for arterial roads.
Note: These roads shall be improved to those specifications as set out in Chapter 17.90, except that dedications only will be required through the last parcel of the subdivision and the road improvements will only be required to the last parcel when such road is being newly created. If there is an existing road or road easement through the property, then the entire road shall be improved from property line to property line of the subdivision.
Where it is quite evident that a cul-de-sac road can only serve four lots or less, the land division committee may eliminate the shoulder requirement as required in Exhibits A and B at Chapter 17.90. It is noted that circuity of routing is fully encouraged and that a full study of the entire area is to be made so that a planned road system can be accomplished. One purpose of the analysis is to insure that two ways of ingress and egress can be accomplished in case of fire or other hazards.
In order to provide for ongoing improving and/or maintaining of access roads and roads within the subdivision, the subdivider shall either; form an entity prior to the recording of the final map, which entity may be a public entity or a private partnership or association, the structure and provisions of which shall be subject to county’s approval; or include in all instruments conveying or reserving legal title or of contracts of sale of each and every parcel in such subdivision a covenant requiring the subdivider and his successors in interest and each and every transferee thereof to share on an equitable basis in the maintaining or improving of such roads. Such covenant shall be binding on the subdivider and his successors in interest and his transferees, and all successors in interest thereof, and shall run with the land in perpetuity. The express terms of the covenant shall be subject to such county’s approval. Besides the subdivider, his transferees, and their successors in interest, the county shall have standing to enforce the provisions established by such covenant.
B. For property leading from the subdivision to a county road or state highway.
1. 50-foot right-of-way for local roads;
2. 60-foot right-of-way for collector roads;
3. 60-foot right-of-way for major roads;
4. 80-foot right-of-way for arterial roads.
The access roads shall be improved for the same length and to the same standards as required for the roads within the parcel map of subdivision. (Ord. 664 §1(part), 1978).
