Where multi-family, mixed-use, or non-residential development other than industrial development occurs on a lot abutting or across an alley from a lot containing low-density residential development in an R-A, R-1, R-MC, R-T , or R-ML zone district, a buffer shall be provided along the lot line, as specified in Table 5-6-4 and for the relevant area below.
A landscaped edge buffer area shall be provided on the subject property along the property line between the two properties.
1. If a wall at least 3 feet in height is provided or exists along the property line between the 2 properties, 1 tree at least 8 feet high at the time of planting shall be provided every for 15 feet along the wall, with spacing designed to minimize sound and light impacts of the proposed development on the adjacent property.
2. If no wall is provided or exists, 1 tree at least 6 feet tall at the time of planting and at least 25 feet tall at maturity and 3 shrubs shall be provided for every 25 feet along the lot line, with spacing designed to minimize sound, light, and noise impacts.
1. A landscaped edge buffer area at least 6 feet wide shall be provided. For buildings over 30 feet in height, the edge buffer area shall be at least 10 feet wide.
2. An opaque wall, fence, or vegetative screen at least 6 feet tall shall be provided at the property line between the two properties, and all of the following requirements shall be met.
a. One (1) tree at least 8 feet high at the time of planting shall be provided every for 15 feet along the wall, with spacing designed to minimize sound and light impacts of the proposed development on the adjacent property.
b. The side facing the low-density residential development shall be at least as finished in appearance as the side facing the multi-family, mixed-use, or non-residential development.
c. If there is an existing wall between the two properties, it may count toward satisfying the requirements of Subsection 14-16-5-6(E)(2)(b)2 if it meets, or is improved to meet, the height and design standards above.
Where mixed-use or non-residential development other than industrial development occurs on any lot abutting or across an alley from a lot in the R-ML or R-MH zone districts with townhouse development or multi-family residential development, a buffer shall be provided along the lot line, as specified in Table 5-6-4 and for the relevant area below.
An edge buffer area shall be provided on the subject property along the property line between the two properties.
1. If a wall at least 3 feet in height is provided or exists along the property line between the two properties, 1 tree at least 8 feet high at the time of planting shall be provided every for 15 feet along the wall, with spacing designed to minimize sound and light impacts of the proposed development on the adjacent property.
2. If no wall is provided or exists, 1 tree at least 6 feet tall at the time of planting and at least 25 feet tall at maturity and 3 shrubs shall be provided for every 25 feet along the lot line, with spacing designed to minimize sound, light, and noise impacts.
1. An opaque wall, fence, or vegetative screen at least 6 feet tall shall be provided at the property line between the two properties, and both of the following requirements shall be met.
a. One (1) tree at least 8 feet high at the time of planting shall be provided every for 15 feet along the wall, with spacing designed to minimize sound and light impacts of the proposed development on the adjacent property.
b. The side facing the multi-family development shall be at least as finished in appearance as the side facing the mixed-use, or non-residential development.
2. If there is an existing wall between the two properties, it may count toward satisfying the requirements of Subsection 14-16-5-6(E)(3)(b)1 if it meets, or is improved to meet, the height and design standards above.
An edge buffer shall be provided as specified in Table 5-6-4 and for the relevant areas in Subsections (b) and (c) below in all of the following locations:
1. Where a lot with industrial zoning or development is adjacent to a lot with non-industrial zoning or development, including, but not limited to both of the following locations:
a. Where any development in an NR-LM or NR-GM zone district is adjacent to any lot that is not in an NR-LM or NR-GM zone district.
b. Where light manufacturing; heavy manufacturing; special manufacturing; natural resource extraction; non-linear portions of an electric utility, drainage facility, or other major utility; or any primary use in the Waste and Recycling category in Table 4-2-1 is developed on a lot abutting a vacant lot or a lot with a use other than one of these specified uses.
2. Where multi-family residential development is adjacent to a lot with industrial development.
A landscaped edge buffer area shall be provided on the subject property along the property line between the two adjacent properties. For drainage facilities, a landscaped edge buffer area at least 15 feet wide shall be provided on the subject property along the property line between the two adjacent properties, unless a smaller edge buffer area is approved by the City Engineer as necessary on a particular lot.

ii. The landscaping shall be maintained by the owner of the subject property.

Except in DT-UC-MS-PT areas, where a premises partially or completely in an Area of Change is abutting a premises partially or completely in an Area of Consistency (per City Development Areas in the ABC Comp Plan, as amended), the following standards shall apply on the lot(s) abutting the premises partially or completely in the Area of Consistency, regardless of the proposed land use on that lot or premises, unless specified otherwise in this IDO.
Lot in Area of Change Next to | Specific Standards | General Buffering | Buffering in DT-UC-MS-PT |
Area of Consistency in R-A, R-1, R-MC, or R-T | Landscaped buffer area ≥ 15 ft. | Not required | |
Area of Consistency in R-ML or R-MH | |||
Area of Consistency in Mixed-use, NR-C, or NR-PO | |||
