HOP - you have no idea what you are talking about. The reason for the lots being the shape they are is that Hawaiian Acres, Orchidland, and similar subdivisions are zoned Ag-3, meaning the minimum lot size is 3 acres. They can't be subdivided beyond that without a zoning change, which is next to impossible. And when each lot must be at least 3 acres, as Carey and others said, the most efficient way to subdivide into lots that size is to make them as narrow as possible...
They were not originally zoned Ag-3, hence the couple of clusters of postage stamps lots that came from a couple of lots that were subdivided before zoning changed.
And from someone else's post - does anyone know what it takes to make COH into two counties?
