    A parcel of vacant land that can be created by subdivision under the conditions of R.C. § 711.131 with a minimum of fifty feet of street frontage and five thousand square feet of land area, except, that such new building sites shall not be smaller than the existing lots on which dwellings are located on the same private street.

    C.

    All petitions and plats indicate that the owners of the land within and abutting the streets agree to a reservation or covenant that would dedicate an area fifty feet wide for street purposes on all vacant land and on all developed parcels of land, if and when the existing structures are removed.
