11-4-10: YARD COVERAGE:
   A.   Corner Lots:
         1.   For corner lots, platted and of record at the time of September 30, 1999, the minimum required lot width shall be increased by at least twenty feet (20') so as to allow for the additional required street secondary front yard; i.e., for a minimum required lot width of sixty feet (60'), the minimum width of a corner lot shall be at least eighty feet (80').
         2.   On corner lots platted and of record at the time of September 30, 1999, the buildable envelope shall not be required to be reduced to a width less than twenty-eight feet (28') in order to meet the additional lot width required by Section 11-4-10A.1.
         3.   On corner lots platted and of record as of March 1, 1972, the secondary front yard regulations shall apply to the longer street side of the lot except in the case of reversed frontage lots. In the case of reversed frontage, there shall be a secondary front yard of not less than fifty percent (50%) of the setback required on lots to the rear, and no accessory building shall project beyond the setback line of the lots in the rear. This regulation shall not be interpreted as to reduce the buildable envelope to a width less than twenty-eight feet (28').
      B.   Building Lines On Approved Plats: Whenever the plat of a land subdivision approved by the city council and on record in the office of the county recorder shows a setback building line along any frontage for the purpose of creating a front yard or side street yard line, the building line thus shown shall apply along such frontage in place of any other yard line required in this title unless specific yard requirements in this title require a greater setback.
      C.    Yard Coverage Area: A maximum of 30% of front and side yards shall be impervious. A maximum of 50% of rear yards shall be impervious. This shall not prohibit the construction of a permitted driveway to support access to a garage plus one additional parking stall or required sidewalks and walkways.
