.010 Maximum Heights. The maximum structural heights for commercial zones are shown in Table 8-F. Structures exceeding the maximum height requirement may be permitted with the approval of a conditional use permit, as set forth in Chapter 18.66 (Conditional Use Permit), and subject to the following additional finding:
.0101 The proposed increase in structural height shall not create significant impacts onto surrounding properties related to glare, shadow, noise and privacy. Such impacts shall be assessed and determined through studies to be submitted to the Planning and Building Department. Additional studies may be required to analyze other impacts as determined by the Planning and Building Director.
