The surface shall provide unobstructed access to conventional drive vehicles, including sedans and fire engines.
Driveway Surface: Surfaces should be established in conformance with local ordinances, and be capable of supporting a 40,000 pound load. 4” of class 2 aggregate base shall be required
for all driveways, turnouts and turnarounds.
Gate Standards: Gate entrances shall be at least two feet wider on both ends then the width of the traffic lane(s) serving that gate. Minimum 14 foot opening with an unobstructed vertical
clearance of 13’6” . All gates providing access from a road to a driveway shall be located at least 30 feet from the roadway and shall open to allow a vehicle to stop without obstructing
traffic on that road. Where a one-way road with a single traffic lane provides access to a gated entrance; a 40 foot turning radius shall be used.
Addressing: All buildings shall be issued an address by the local jurisdiction which conforms to that jurisdiction's overall address system. Accessory buildings will not be required
to have a separate address; however, each dwelling unit within a building shall
be separately identified. Size of letters, numbers and symbols for addresses shall be a minimum 4 inch letter height, ½ inch stroke, reflectorized, contrasting with the background color
of the sign. All buildings shall have a permanently posted address, which shall be placed at each driveway entrance and visible from both directions of travel along the road. In all
cases, the address shall be posted at the beginning of construction and shall be maintained thereafter, and the address shall be visible and legible from the road on which the address
is located. Address signs along one-way roads shall be visible from both the intended direction of travel and the opposite direction. Where multiple addresses are required at a single
driveway, they shall be mounted on a single post.
Disposal of Flammable Vegetation and Fuels: Disposal, including chipping, burning or removal to a landfill site approved by the local jurisdiction, of flammable vegetation and fuels
caused by site development and construction, road and driveway construction, and fuel modification shall be completed prior to completion of road construction or final inspection of
a building permit.
DEFENSIBLE SPACE GUIDELINES: A person that owns, leases, controls, operates, or maintains a building or structure in, upon, or adjoining any mountainous area, forest-covered lands, brush-covered
lands, grass-covered lands, or any land that is covered with flammable material, shall at all times do all of the following:
Maintain around and adjacent to the building or structure additional fire protection or firebreak made by removing all brush, flammable vegetation, or combustible growth that is located
within 100 feet from the building or structure or to the property line or at a greater distance if required by state law, or local ordinance, rule, or regulation. Grass and other vegetation
located more than 30 feet from the building or structure and less than 18 inches in height above the ground may be maintained where necessary to stabilize the soil and prevent erosion.
This subdivision does not apply to single specimens of trees or other vegetation that is well-pruned and maintained so as to effectively manage fuels and not form a means of rapidly
transmitting fire from other nearby vegetation to a dwelling or structure.
Remove that portion of any tree that extends within 10 feet of the outlet of a chimney or stovepipe.
Maintain any tree adjacent to or overhanging a building free of dead or dying wood.
Maintain the roof of a structure free of leaves, needles, or other dead vegetative growth.
