Because of the unique nature of the topography and climatic conditions of the foothill and canyon areas, limits of disturbance and setbacks for developments in the FR zones shall be determined on a case by case basis by the community development director, subject to the planning commission's final approval on all developments, except minor developments (see chapter 13.72 of this title), for all uses, including single-family dwellings and accessory structures. All determinations of limits of disturbance shall be subject to the conditions and criteria set forth in the foothills and canyons overlay zone, section 13.72.040, "Establishment Of Limits Of Disturbance", of this title. (Ord. 2012-15, 9-20-2012)
A. Maximum Height: Except as otherwise specifically provided in this title, no building or structure shall exceed the following heights:
1. Thirty feet (30') on property where the original slope exceeds fifteen percent (15%) or the property is located in the foothills and canyons overlay zone. For purposes of this section, the slope shall be determined using a line drawn from the highest point of elevation to the lowest point of elevation on the perimeter of a box which encircles the foundation line of the building or structure. The box shall extend for a distance of fifteen feet (15') or to the property line, whichever is less, around the foundation line of the building or structure. The elevation shall be determined using a certified topographic survey with a maximum contour interval of two feet (2').
2. Thirty five feet (35') on other properties.
B. Minimum Story: No single-family dwelling structure shall contain less than one story. (Ord. 2012-15, 9-20-2012)
Construction of permanent structures in areas subject to natural hazards, including floods, landslides, and avalanches, shall be subject to the requirements and limitations set forth in chapters 13.74, "Flood Damage Prevention Regulations", and 13.75, "Natural Hazard Areas", of this title. (Ord. 2012-15, 9-20-2012)
A. Health Department Approval Required: Prior to issuance of a conditional use permit or site plan approval for all uses in the FR zones, regardless of size or number of units, the applicant shall receive the written approval of the health department certifying that all water quality and health requirements have been satisfied and that the proposed construction will not damage the natural watershed.
B. Developments Of More Than Nine Lots/Units: Developments of more than nine (9) lots or units shall receive the written approval of the Utah department of environmental quality certifying that the culinary water system and the sewerage system meet all state water quality and health requirements. All approvals shall be in accordance with the regulations of the Utah department of environmental quality relating to culinary water supply and wastewater disposal.
C. Applicable State Regulations And Standards: The applicable state regulations for individual wastewater disposal systems can be found in the Utah administrative code sections R317-501 through R317-513, as amended from time to time. The applicable state regulations for culinary water supply can be found in Utah administrative code, as amended from time to time.
D. Subsequent Changes In Site Plan: If, after health department or Utah department of environmental quality review and action pursuant to this section, a site plan is modified such that the original limits of disturbance change, the applicant must submit the modified site plan to the appropriate health agency for retesting and a new determination whether all state wastewater and culinary water standards have been met. Evidence of such retesting must be submitted prior to final approval of the site plan. (Ord. 2012-15, 9-20-2012)
