The key map must show how this might look under Section II, para. 8b and Section IV, para. A Id & le. Without the inclusion of potential streets, it is hard to project how this dead end could be readily discontinued as stated in waiver. There would still be a dead end and turnaround. c) Although the 120 ft. minimum radius (Section IV, papa. 4b) for a cul-de-sac has been met, the Highway Superintendent recommends a larger than minimum turnaround, which should be considered. 2.
