This development area provides for the orderly development of attached, multiple-family housing, with a minimum two thousand four hundred (2,400) square foot building site area per dwelling unit (see Exhibit No. 34 of the Specific Plan). The standards of the "RM-3" Multiple-Family Residential Zone in Chapter 18.06 (Multiple-Family Residential Zones) shall apply for development in this area, except as otherwise provided below:
.010 Required Site Screening. Except as otherwise provided herein, a solid, decorative-type, masonry wall, landscaped earthen berm, or any combination thereof, totaling not less than six (6) feet in height, shall be provided along, and immediately adjacent to, the site boundary line of any multi-family development abutting any freeway or expressway, or any RS (residential, single-family) or commercial zone boundary, or any alley abutting any such boundary. The height of any such wall and/or berm shall be as measured from the highest finished grade level of the building pad of the dwelling units located nearest any such abutting boundary.
However, in conditions where a grade separation between any arterial highway and property line occurs at a minimum of six (6) feet, and a minimum setback of twelve (12) feet exists between the multiple-family development and conditions as stated above, an open, decorative-type wall is permitted in order to allow and preserve view opportunities.
.020 Required Parking Spaces. All covered parking spaces shall be located within one hundred (100) feet of, and be readily accessible to, the dwelling unit to be served; provided, however, that thirty-five percent (35%) of the required covered spaces may be located between one hundred one (101) to one hundred fifty (150) feet from the dwelling unit served, and sixteen percent (16%) of the required covered spaces may be located between one hundred fifty-one (151) to two hundred twenty (220) feet from the dwelling unit served; and further provided that only one (1) covered parking space per unit shall exceed the one hundred (100) foot distance, and that any covered parking space exceeding said one hundred (100) foot distance shall be located in a carport. Required open spaces shall be located within 200 feet of the unit served. (Ord. 5031 § 1; June 13, 1989: Ord. 5920 § 1 (part); June 8, 2004.)
