§ 155.090 COMPATIBILITY STANDARDS.
   Approval standards for single-family detached dwellings on individual lots: all single-family detached dwelling on individual lots in all residential zone districts, outside of manufactured home parks or subdivisions, shall conform to these standards. Structures that fail to meet the following standards shall require approval from the Board of Zoning Adjustments prior to the issuance of a building permit.
   (A)   Foundation. The dwelling shall be set on a permanent perimeter foundation that forms a complete enclosure under the exterior walls. If the structure is not designed to be supported by a perimeter foundation, a wall constructed of brick, stone or concrete block shall be installed to give the appearance of a permanent foundation.
   (B)   Roof. The roof pitch shall not be less than a one to four (1:4) ratio, except over porches, garages and carports. The roof material shall be of a type or shall resemble a type commonly found on site-built dwellings.
   (C)   Minimum width. The narrowest portion of the main part of the dwelling unit shall be no less than 20 feet in width.
   (D)   Exterior walls. The exterior covering of the dwelling unit shall be similar in appearance to materials commonly found on site built dwellings. It shall not reflect light to any greater degree than siding coated with white gloss exterior enamel paint.
   (E)   Faces street. The longest dimension of the dwelling shall be parallel to the street, unless site built dwellings are common in the surrounding area or unless the Board of Zoning Adjustments determines such orientation would be compatible in the area.
   (F)   Installations. The dwelling shall be properly connected to utilities and, if manufactured off-site, shall be installed on site in accordance with the manufacturer’s specifications.
