Findings for Consideration Street Sections Easy Jet Drive — Residential Collector District policy 72-F1A, 7202.3.2 and 7202.3.5, requires that residential collectors be constructed as 36 -foot street sections with curb, gutter and 5 -foot wide concrete sidewalks with no front -on housing. The access restrictions for these street segments should be stated on the final plat. Unless otherwise noted, parking should be prohibited on these street segments. Coordinate the signage Program with District staff. On May 8, 2002, the Commission approved the preliminary plat for Sutherland Farms Subdivision. As a part of the Sutherland Farms Subdivision, the applicant proposed to construct East Easy Jet Drive as a residential collector. East Easy Jet Drive was approved to be constructed as a 36 -foot street section with vertical curb, gutter and 5 -foot concrete sidewalks abutting the site.
