(1) All development in the CH Zone shall comply with the applicable street and access requirements of Titles 14 and 15, Provo City Code, including the Street Standards section of Chapter 15.03, Provo City Code (15.03.200).

(2) Streets, roads, alleys, or driveways shall follow natural contour lines where possible to minimize cuts and fills.

(3) An easement shall be granted to Provo City over and across all private development roads for utility maintenance and fire and emergency access.

(4) A development of thirteen (13) or more lots, or thirteen (13) or more dwelling units, shall have at least two (2) points of ingress and egress. All developments shall be connected to the City’s street system at two (2) different access locations. This requirement for second access shall supersede any conflicting second access requirement in this Code.

(5) Grading for streets, roads, alleys, or driveways is limited to the paved portion of such access and other associated, required access improvements, plus up to an additional ten (10) feet on either side of the pavement and required improvements. However, when developing streets, roads, alleys, or driveways on slopes in excess of twenty-five percent (25%), only the paved portion of the access used for vehicular travel, plus the minimum area for any required, associated access improvements, such as curb, gutter or sidewalk, may be graded. The remainder of the access must be left undisturbed.

(a) In the CH Zone, the City Engineer may allow the use of street- or road-side swales, or other similar street construction convention, instead of curb and gutter, when the City Engineer determines that such swales, or other similar road construction convention, will provide a more efficient, safe, or practical means of managing water runoff related to a street or road.

(6) Any development that abuts on public land that has an existing access to the public land shall maintain the access by providing a public access road through the development to the public land.
