public health, convenience and ne-
cessity. Such an easement shall
not be less than 15 feet in width.
D. Lots
1. Location. All lots shall abut
on a publicly dedicated street.
2. Size. All lots shall be at least
40,000 sq. ft. in area.
3. Width. All lots shall be at
least 100 feet wide at the front
set-back line.
4. Corner lots. Corner lots shall
be platted at least 15 feet wider
than the minimum width required.
5. Side lot lines. Side lines of

angles to the street line.
6. Water Courses. Lots abut-
ting upon a water cours'e, drain-
age way, channel or stream shall
have an additional depth or width,
as required to assure house sites
that are not subject to flooding.
7. Features. In the subdividing
of any land, due regard shall be
shown for all natural features,
such as tree growth, water courses,
historic spots or similar conditions,
which if preserved will add attrac-
tiveness and stability to the pro-
posed development.
8. Lot Remnants. All remnants
of land below minimum lot size
left over after subdividing of a
larger tract must be added to ad-
jacent lots, rather than allowed to

ture subdivision of adjoining land
will absorb these outlots into stan-
dard lots.

adjoins a major thoroughfare.
E. General
The proposed subdivision shall,
in all respects, conform to the
Village plans.
SECTION VI. PUBLIC LAND

ates a need for recreation aril8S
and other public uses, as well as
for streets, 8% of 1ihe total area
of each new subdivision or its
equivalent shall be dedicated for
such use. Such area must be suit-
able for public use and shall con-
form to the Village Plan. The
subdivider shall, if the Village
Plan does not show a propoeed
site larger than 8% of the subdi-
vision, have the option in place
of dedicating recreation area for
public use, to pay into the village
park fund a sum of money equal
.
.
.
to 8% of the value of the raw
land contained in the proposed sub-
division; the value of the raw
land s.hall be determined by the
village assessor.
In addition, wherever the Vil-
lage Plan shows a propos,ed pub-
lic site larger than 8% of the sub-
division, the preliminary plan and
final plat shall show such pro-
posed site, and the Village shall
have one year in Which to pur-
chase the additional area. If such
purchase has not been made with-
in the year, the subdivider may
proceed to subdivide the site, ex-
cept the area dedicat'ed under the

lent number of the same s,ize

istic way in the front yards of
the lots. The trees shall be
planted in at least one cubic
yard of growing soil, and shall

sequently approves such Regis-
