8.404 STREETS
(2) Street Classification and Characteristics
(a) Local Streets
The purpose of a local street is to provide lot street frontage and carry traffic to
a higher classification street. Because of its limited purpose, a local street
generally carries an Average Daily Traffic volume no greater than 2000 vehicle
trips. Local streets are divided into three subcategories: local -residential,
local -non-residential or local -rural. Unless approved by the Transportation
Director, a local street shall not connect to two separate higher classification
streets or connect directly to arterial streets. Local streets may be designated as
private streets.
City
(b) Collector Streets
Collector streets are divided into two subcategories: local and major. The
purpose of collector streets is to convey traffic from intersecting local streets
and to expedite the movement of traffic to an arterial street or other collector
street. A local collector street generally carries an Average Daily Traffic
volume of two thousand (2000) to six thousand (6000) vehicle trips. A major
collector street generally carries an Average Daily Traffic greater than six
thousand (6000) vehicle trips. Generally, major collector streets shall not
permit on -street parking. No collector street in a residential development shall
be designated as a private street. Collector streets in Non -Residential Private
Street Developments may be designated as private streets.
(c) Arterial Streets
The purpose of an arterial street is to carry high volumes of through traffic.
Arterial streets serve as a link between major activity centers within the urban
area. Access is usually limited to intersections, multi -family developments and
commercial driveways. All arterial streets are designated in the General Plan.
An arterial street shall not end as a cul-de-sac. Generally, arterial streets shall
not permit on -street parking. No arterial street shall be designated as a private
street.
(3) New Streets
(a) Right -of -Way
A Developer shall dedicate or convey at the City's option the amount of right-
of-way for each type of street as stated in the Design and Construction
Standards. Except as provided below, the Developer must dedicate or convey
4
the required right-of-way for all streets within the Subdivision as shown on the
Plat. The City may reduce the amount of right-of-way dedication for an arterial
street based on the design consideration, existing land uses, existing
development of adjoining properties, and dimensions of the proposed Addition
or Subdivision. In all cases, the amount of right-of-way dedicated for any one
street within the Addition or Subdivision shall not exceed one hundred and
twenty feet (120') wide or fifteen percent (15%) of the total acreage on the Plat
submitted.
(b) Street Improvements
All public and private streets shall be designed and built in accordance with the
Design and Construction Standards. The Developer must construct the full
cross-section of the arterial streets designated on the General Plan which are
located within the Subdivision unless the TIA for the Addition or Subdivision
documents a need for a lesser cross-section. In such a case, the Developer
shall construct the cross section required by the TIA.
(4) Private Streets
Private streets may be permitted, subject to the provisions of Sections 8.423 and
8.424.
(6) Stub Streets
(a)
(b)
Except for Gated Communities, a proposed Subdivision or Addition must
provide access to adjacent land subdivided by stubbing appropriate streets to
the boundaries of the proposed Addition or Subdivision. When the abutting
land is platted, the Developer shall integrate the stubbed streets into the existing
traffic system of streets in a logical manner as well as continue the same street
classification of the stub street. The Developer shall present a schematic plan
to demonstrate how the stub street will eventually extend through the adjacent
property and connect with a collector or arterial street.
Temporary paved turnarounds shall be provided at the end of stubbed streets
which are more than two hundred fifty feet (250') long.
(7) Cul-de-sacs
(a) Local streets may terminate in a cul-de-sac. Collectors and arterial streets may
not terminate in a cul-de-sac.
(b) Except as provided herein, the maximum length of a cul-de-sac street shall be
seven hundred fifty feet (750'), measured from the centerline of the nearest
intersecting outlet street to the centerpoint of the turnaround; except that a
Ionger length may be allowed upon a recommendation by the Fire Department
and if the Planning and Zoning Commission determines any of the following:
(i) That no secondary access can be reasonably provided to the portion of
the Subdivision which is to be served by the cul-de-sac;
(ii) That limited access to the Subdivision is due to a topographical
condition on the property or a particular physical surrounding; or
(iii) That the cul-de-sac is temporary and the street is planned to extend to
the adjacent property.
5
(9) Curb Ramps
(a) Curb ramps are required within a street wherever a sidewalk or pedestrian
route intersects with a curb. The design and construction of curb ramps shall be
in accordance with the Design and Construction Standards, and shall meet the
Texas Accessibility Standards administered by the Texas Department of
Licensing and Regulation and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as
amended.

8.404 STREETS
(2) Street Classification and Characteristics
(a) Local Streets
The purpose of a local street is to provide lot street frontage and carry traffic to
a higher classification street. Because of its limited purpose, a local street
generally carries an Average Daily Traffic volume no greater than 2000 vehicle
trips. Local streets are divided into three subcategories: local -residential,
local -non-residential or local -rural. Unless approved by the Transportation
Director, a local street shall not connect to two separate higher classification
streets or connect directly to arterial streets. Local streets may be designated as
private streets.
(b) Collector Streets
Collector streets are divided into two subcategories: local and major. The
purpose of collector streets is to convey traffic from intersecting local streets
and to expedite the movement of traffic to an arterial street or other collector
street. A local collector street generally carries an Average Daily Traffic
volume of two thousand (2000) to six thousand (6000) vehicle trips. A major
collector street generally carries an Average Daily Traffic greater than six
thousand (6000) vehicle trips. Generally, major collector streets shall not
permit on -street parking. No collector street in a residential development shall
be designated as a private street. Collector streets in Non -Residential Private
Street Developments may be designated as private streets.
(c) Arterial Streets
The purpose of an arterial street is to carry high volumes of through traffic.
Arterial streets serve as a link between major activity centers within the urban
area. Access is usually limited to intersections, multi -family developments and
commercial driveways. All arterial streets are designated in the General Plan.
An arterial street shall not end as a cul-de-sac. Generally, arterial streets shall
not permit on -street parking. No arterial street shall be designated as a private
street.
(3) New Streets

A Developer shall dedicate or convey at the City's option the amount of right-
of-way for each type of street as stated in the Design and Construction
Standards. Except as provided below, the Developer must dedicate or convey
4
(b)
the required right-of-way for all streets within the Subdivision as shown on the
Plat. The City may reduce the amount of right-of-way dedication for an arterial
street based on the design consideration, existing land uses, existing
development of adjoining properties, and dimensions of the proposed Addition
or Subdivision. In all cases, the amount of right-of-way dedicated for any one
street within the Addition or Subdivision shall not exceed one hundred and
twenty feet (120') wide or fifteen percent (150) of the total acreage on the Plat
submitted.
Street Improvements
All public and private streets shall be designed and built in accordance with the
Design and Construction Standards. The Developer must construct the full
cross-section of the arterial streets designated on the General Plan which are
located within the Subdivision unless the TIA for the Addition or Subdivision
documents a need for a Iesser cross-section. In such a case, the Developer
shall construct the cross section required by the TIA.
(4) Private Streets
Private streets may be permitted, subject to the provisions of Sections 8.423 and
8.424.
(6) Stub Streets
(a) Except for Gated Communities, a proposed Subdivision or Addition must
provide access to adjacent land subdivided by stubbing appropriate streets to
the boundaries of the proposed Addition or Subdivision. When the abutting
land is platted, the Developer shall integrate the stubbed streets into the existing
traffic system of streets in a logical manner as well as continue the same street
classification of the stub street. The Developer shall present a schematic plan
to demonstrate how the stub street will eventually extend through the adjacent
property and connect with a collector or arterial street.
(b) Temporary paved turnarounds shall be provided at the end of stubbed streets
which are more than two hundred fifty feet (250') long.
(7) Cul-de-sacs
(a) Local streets may terminate in a cul-de-sac. Collectors and arterial streets may
not terminate in a cul-de-sac.
(b) Except as provided herein, the maximum length of a cul-de-sac street shall be
seven hundred fifty feet (750'), measured from the centerline of the nearest
intersecting outlet street to the centerpoint of the turnaround; except that a
longer length may be allowed upon a recommendation by the Fire Department
and if the Planning and Zoning Commission determines any of the following:
(i) That no secondary access can be reasonably provided to the portion of
the Subdivision which is to be served by the cul-de-sac;
(ii) That limited access to the Subdivision is due to a topographical
condition on the property or a particular physical surrounding; or
(iii) That the cul-de-sac is temporary and the street is planned to extend to
the adjacent property.
5
(9) Curb Ramps
(a) Curb ramps are required within a street wherever a sidewalk or pedestrian
route intersects with a curb. The design and construction of curb ramps shall be
in accordance with the Design and Construction Standards, and shall meet the
Texas Accessibility Standards administered by the Texas Department of
Licensing and Regulation and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as
amended.
