1123.05 LOT REQUIREMENTS.

   (a)   Minimum Required Lot Size. The minimum lot size is 3,500 square feet.

   (b)   Minimum Required Lot Frontage. Thirty-five feet (35’).

   (c)   Maximum Percent of Lot Coverage. No lot shall exceed fifty percent (50%) in coverage for all roofed structures.

   (d)   Exceptions Include. One accessory building containing fifty square feet (50 sq. ft.) or less per site.

   Example 1: A lot in an R-3 District has fifty-five percent (55%) lot coverage. The residents are still able to erect an accessory building of 100 square feet. These are typically the kit sheds available at any home improvement store. The shed will still require a zoning permit.

   Example 2: A lot in an R-3 District is 5,000 square feet and has 40% lot coverage (2000 sq. ft). It does not have a garage and owner would like to construct a 600 square foot garage. The owner is limited to 500 square feet before reaching the fifty percent (50%) maximum (2,500 sq. ft). Can the application for an accessory structure add the 100 square foot exemption to the permit? The answer is ‘No’. The 100 sq. ft. exemption is intended to provide for smaller shed type buildings, not as a bonus for larger roofed structures.
