highway right-of-way, the Planning and Zoning Commission may require a street<br />
approximately parallel to and on each side of the right-of-way, at a distance suitable<br />
for the appropriate use of the intervening land. Such distances shall be determined<br />
with due regard for the requirements of approach grades and future grade<br />

curves on major streets.<br />
8) When connecting street lines deflect from each other at any one point by more than<br />
ten (10) degrees, they shall be connected by a curve with a radius adequate to insure<br />
a sight distance of not less than four hundred (400) feet for local and collector<br />
streets, and of such greater radii as the Planning and Zoning Commission shall<br />
determine for special cases.<br />
9) Streets shall be laid out so as to intersect as nearly as possible at right angles, and no<br />
street shall intersect any other street at less than eighty (80) degrees.<br />
