Notes for Residential Districts: 1.   Minimum lot width is measured at the required front yard setback distance from the right-of-way. Corner lots and double frontage lots are considered to have two front yards. The depth of a lot shall not exceed three times the width as measured at the building line for platted lots and four times the width for unplatted lots 2.   Building heights shall be measured as the vertical distance from grade to the highest point of the roof surface for flat roofs; to the dock line for mansard roofs; and to the average height between eaves and ridge for gable, hip, and gambrel roofs. The maximum building height may be increased upon application to and finding by the Planning Commission and/or Zoning Commission, as required, that such increased height will not adversely affect existing and surrounding adjacent properties 3.   In the case of corner lots or lots with dual frontage, front setback requirements shall be maintained along all street frontages 4.   See §§ 157.035 through 157.040(A) for accessory building and structure setbacks 5.   See division (B) below, average lot size option and division (C) below, subdivision open space option (R1A District only), regarding flexibility allowances 6.   For buildings with multiple dwelling units, a 10-foot landscaped setback from all roads, drives, parking areas, and adjacent Single-Family Residential Districts shall be provided meeting the requirements of § 157.168 7.   Other yard dimensions:    (a)   No multiple-family building designed, erected, or used for eight or more families shall be located closer than 50 feet to any Single-Family Residential District; where findings of the Planning Commission and/or Zoning Commission, as required, conclude that the adjoining property will eventually assume similar zoning as property in question, the Commission may waive the 50-foot minimum separation    (b)   No single building or connected buildings may exceed 160 feet in any one dimension. All buildings shall be so arranged as to permit emergency vehicle access by some practical means to all sides    (c)   The separation between grouped buildings shall be a minimum of 25 feet    (d)   No building entrance to a multiple-family structure shall be located closer to any street, access road, driveway, or parking area than 25 feet 8. The minimum 5,500 square feet per unit site may be reduced by 20%; provided, that the individual site shall be equal to 4,400 square feet; provided, that for each square foot of land gained through the reduction of a site below 5,5000 square feet, at least an equal amount of land shall be dedicated as open space, but in no case shall the open and distance requirements be less than that required by the Mobile Home Commission 9. The minimum site area of a PUD may be reduced upon application to, and approval by, the Planning Commission and/or Zoning Commission, as required

Notes for Nonresidential Districts: 1   Minimum lot width is measured at the required front yard setback distance from the right-of-way. Corner lots and double frontage lots are considered to have two front yards. The depth of a lot shall not exceed three times the width as measured at the building line for platted lots and four times the width for unplatted lots 2.   See §§ 157.035 through 157.040 (A) for accessory building and structure setbacks 3.   Building heights shall be measured as the vertical distance from grade to the highest point of the roof surface for flat roofs; to the dock line for mansard roofs; and to the average height between eaves and ridge for gable, hip, and gambrel roofs. The maximum building height may be increased upon application to and finding by the Planning Commission and/or Zoning Commission, as required, that such increased height will not adversely affect existing and surrounding adjacent properties 4.   Whenever property zoned for industrial or commercial use has a contiguous border with a residential district, the Planning Commission and/or Zoning Commission, as required, may require that no storage, driveway, parking area, building, sign, commercial or industrial activity be allowed in a setback area established by the Planning Commission and/or Zoning Commission, as required. The setback shall be at least 50, feet but not more than 200 feet from the property line abutting the residential district. The Planning Commission and/or Zoning Commission, as required, may further require that trees, shrubs, grasses, screening fences, berms, or other landscaping be placed in the above described area abutting this residential district.    a.   The proposed use of the property;    b.   Noise, odors, vehicle traffic, light, vibration, and dirt caused by the proposed use;    c.   Size, construction, appearances, and exterior lighting of buildings, structures, parking areas, or driveways;    d.   Exterior storage, including storage of waste or trash; and    e.   Lot size and natural barriers 5.    The height of a sign or building shall not exceed 50% of the horizontal distance to the nearest residential district boundary 6.   The front setback shall be equal to the minimum setback established by existing buildings within 200 feet of a proposed principal building location 7.   The principal building may be constructed on the side property line. Rear yards shall be at least 10 feet. No structure shall be less than 20 feet from any residential district 8.   No building, sign, storage, or industrial activity shall be located within 20 feet of an abutting residential district and may be further limited by site plan requirements under § 157.196 9.   The minimum site area of a PUD may be reduced upon application to and finding by the Planning Commission and/or Zoning Commission, as required, that the smaller site area can be developed to meet the intent and review objectives of the PUD 10.   An IMPERVIOUS SURFACE is defined as surface that has been compacted or covered with a layer of material so that it is highly resistant to infiltration by water. Maximum impervious surface calculations do not include the area within the right-of-way on a parcel

 

   (B)   Averaged lot size option.

      (1)   The intent of this section is to permit the subdivider or developer to vary lot sizes and lot widths to average the minimum size of lot per unit as required in division (A) above, each Single-Family Residential District.

      (2)   If this option is selected, the following conditions shall be met.

         (a)   In meeting the average minimum lot size, the subdivision shall be designed so that no lot has area or width reduced more than 10% than the minimum or width-required in the schedule of regulations in division (A) above and shall not create an increase in the number of lots.

         (b)   Each final plat submitted as part of a preliminary plat shall average the minimum required for the district in which it is located. The area and dimensions of each lot shall be listed on, the plan in tabular form.

   (C)   Subdivision open space option. The intent of the subdivision open space plan is to promote the following objectives:

      (1)   Provide a more desirable living environment by preserving the natural features such as woodlands, steep topography, water bodies, and wetlands;

      (2)   Encourage developers to use a more creative approach in the development of residential areas;

      (3)   Encourage a more efficient, aesthetic, and desirable use of open area, reducing development costs, and allowing the developer to avoid natural obstacles on the site; and

      (4)   Encourage the provision of open space within reasonable distance to lots in the subdivision and to further encourage the development of recreational facilities, such as pathways which link up to the village’s sidewalk system.

   (D)   Modifications. Modifications to the standards as outlined in schedule of regulations in division (A) above, may be made in the R1A Single-Family Residential Districts when the following conditions are met (R1B Districts are not eligible for this option.).

      (1)   (a)   Individual lots in the R1 A Single-Family Residential Districts may be reduced up to 20%. This reduction may be accomplished in part by reducing lot widths up to 20 feet.

         (b)   Lot area reductions shall be permitted; provided, that the dwelling unit density shall be no greater than if the land area to be subdivided were developed in the minimum square foot lot areas as required for each Single-Family District under schedule of regulations in division (A) above.

         (c)   The area remaining through the reduction of lot sizes shall be retained as permanent open space.

      (2)   Rear yards may be reduced to no less than 30 feet when such lots border land dedicated for park, recreation, and/or open space purposes, provided, the width of the dedicated land shall not be less than 100 feet measured at the point at which it abuts the rear yard of the adjacent lot.

      (3)   The area to be dedicated for subdivision open space purposes shall in no instance be less than one acre, and shall be in a location and shape approved by the Planning Commission and/or Zoning Commission, as required.

      (4)   The plan for reduced lot sizes shall be permitted only if it is agreeable to the village.
