Definition: private road (General Definition)
A "private road" is a right-of-way, other than a street , that provides vehicular access from a street to five or more dwelling units that are within buildings or building segments that are located wholly beyond 50 feet of a street line or street setback line . An individual driveway serving fewer than five parking spaces shall not be considered a private road . However, in lower density growth management areas , a private road is a right-of-way, other than a street , that provides vehicular access from a street to: (a) three or more buildings or building segments located wholly beyond 50 feet of a street line or street setback line ; or (b) one or two buildings or building segments located wholly beyond 50 feet of a street line or street setback line that contain five or more dwelling units . Regulations for private roads are located in Sections 26-00 ( APPLICABILITY OF THIS CHAPTER ) and 37-10 (SPECIAL REGULATIONS FOR PRIVATE ROADS AND LOWER DENSITY GROWTH MANAGEMENT AREAS).
