NOTES TO TABLE 1 - Average size of all lots must exceed 7,000 square feet. 2 - Square feet of land per unit. 3 - Units per acre. 4 - Future lots in Outlot E and lots 16-22 and 33-40, Block 1, shall have a 20-foot minimum setback. 5 - Lots 33-40, Block 1, shall have a 20-foot minimum setback to the curbline of a private street. * - See § A17-5(A)(2). | ||
(2) Setbacks between multiple dwellings.
(a) The front and rear sides of a multiple-dwelling structure containing more than two dwelling units shall have a minimum setback of 50 feet from any side of an adjacent multiple dwelling or a setback equal to the combined height of the adjacent multiple dwellings, whichever is greater, except that
in no case shall a setback greater than 75 feet be required. This minimum setback shall be reduced to 40 feet where a horizontal extension of the lines created by the nearest exterior vertical surfaces of adjacent buildings would create an angle of not less than 45 degrees.
(b) Minimum setbacks between adjacent multiple-dwelling structures containing more than two dwelling units on sides which are not a front or rear side of either building shall be 20 feet or a distance equal to half the combined height of the adjacent buildings, whichever is greater, except that in no case shall a setback greater than 50 feet be required. This minimum setback shall be reduced to 25 feet where a horizontal extension of the lines created by the nearest exterior vertical surfaces of adjacent buildings would create an angle of not less than 45 degrees.
(3) Building materials, see § 155.346.
(4) Screening, see § 155.348.
(5) Landscaping, see § 155.349.
(6) Maximum impervious surface, see § 155.350.
(B) The following requirements are in addition to those in § A14-5(A). Where there may be a conflict, the requirements herein shall prevail:
(1) Front setbacks prevailing. Where adjoining structures existing at the time of adoption of this article have a greater setback than that required by this article, the front setback of a new structure shall conform to the prevailing setback in the immediate vicinity. The Building Official shall determine the necessary front yard setback in such cases. In no case shall a building be required to be set back more than 50 feet.
(2) Side and rear setbacks, party walls. Buildings may be excluded from side and rear setback requirements if party walls are used and if the adjacent buildings are constructed as an integral structure. This shall not permit structures closer to single-family detached or duplex lots, however, than required under § A17-5(A)(1).
(C) (1) The following special performance standards shall be applicable to uses as specified. Where there may be a conflict between these standards and standards required elsewhere, these standards shall prevail.
(2) Within zone, the following provisions apply. Identical single-family building elevations shall not be permitted on lots directly adjacent to or directly across a street from one another.
