(B) General provisions. The following are footnotes applicable to the table in division (A).
(1) Footnote 1. The minimum lot area for lots not served by public water and/or sewer shall be subject to approval by the County Health Department to ensure the proper operation of septic tanks and wells. In no case, however, shall minimum lot area be less than those specified in the table in division (A).
(2) Footnote 2. The minimum lot width at the street line shall be 125 feet in the R-1 District, and 80 feet in the R-2, R-3, and R-4 Districts.
(3) Footnote 3. On all corner lots, a 30-foot side yard setback is required.
(4) Footnote 4. Accessory structures, including driveways, shall meet all setback requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, setback requirements for driveway entrance columns or driveway entrance walls may be waived or modified by the Board of Adjustment with the granting of a special use permit in accordance with § 153.110(C), without the need for a variance pursuant to § 153.110(D).
(5) Footnote 5. Height requirements may be varied upon approval of the Board of Adjustment.
(6) Footnote 6. Whichever is greater, 20,000 square feet, or twice the gross floor area of the building.
(7) Footnote 7. An increase in the side and rear yard setbacks is required for homes (structures) that exceed 25 feet in height. Homes (structures) greater than 25 feet in height shall be setback from the side and rear property lines an additional one and one-half feet for each one foot, or portion thereof, that the home (structure) exceeds 25 feet in height.
(8) Footnote 8. Structures exceeding a roof coverage area of 7,000 square feet shall be set back from side and rear property lines an additional 20% of the required setback for each 500 square feet, or increment thereof, that the roof coverage areas exceeds 7,000 square feet.
Example: The rear setback for a single story 8,200 square foot house in the R-1 District would be calculated as follows:
8,200 - 7,000 = 1,200
1,200/500 = 2.4 (round to 3 to account for increment of change)
3 x 20% = 60%
60% x 20 = 12
25 + 12 = 37
Rear setback will be 37 feet
