§ 155.121  TOWNHOMES AND DUPLEXES.
   (A)   Each dwelling unit shall have one floor and usable front porch at grade level per § 155.072  of this chapter, and two means of ingress/egress at grade level.  All units shall be connected to a public or private sidewalk system.
   (B)   The site plan shall be so planned as to provide ingress and egress directly onto a major or secondary thoroughfare, except when the Planning Commission finds, upon review of the site plan, that ingress and egress directly onto an adjacent minor street will not be detrimental to the harmonious development of adjacent properties.
   (C)   No more than four dwelling units shall be attached in any construction group or contained in any single structure, except that where the roof ridge lines and building facades of any four consecutive units are staggered or offset by at least six feet.  In such cases a maximum of eight units may be permitted.
   (D)   Access drives, parking areas, and maneuvering lanes shall be so located as to minimize their conflict with buildings and outdoor living areas.  All parking and maneuvering lanes shall be at least 15 feet distance from any first floor dwelling unit window, doorway, or entranceway.
   (E)   The required parking spaces shall be well related to the building they are intended to serve.
   (F)   Any accessory buildings, uses or services shall be developed solely for the use of residents of the main buildings.  Uses considered herein as accessory uses include:  swimming pools, cabanas, pavilions, recreation areas, and other similar areas.
   (G)   The site plan shall be so planned as to recognize the front, rear, and side relationship of adjacent residential development.  The Planning Commission may recommend physical features to be provided which will insure harmony in these yard relationships.
   (H)   All design and dimensional standards of this chapter shall be complied with.
