§ 153.079 WATERFRONT DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS.

   (A)   The following standards have precedence over base zoning district standards for properties which contain or abut an OCRM critical line:

Standard [1]	NRM-25	AG-5	AGR	RSL
Min. lot area	1 Ac	1 Ac	1 Ac	14,520 sq. ft.
Min. lot width (feet)	200	175	125	90
Min. lot width average (feet)	250	200	150	100
Min. buffers/ setbacks (feet)
OCRM critical line buffer (feet)	35	35	35	15
Building setback from OCRM critical line (feet)	50	50	50	35
Notes:
Ac = Acre
Min. = Minimum
[1]   Landscape buffer standards specified in §§ 153.330 through 153.342 may require greater setbacks.

 

   (B)   Minimum lot width (feet). The minimum lot width (feet) is measured and maintained from the front lot line through the entire parcel to the OCRM critical line. All lots within a subdivision must meet the minimum lot width average. (Exception: flag lots and lots served by cul-de-sacs.)

      (1)   Lots fronting on cul-de-sacs shall meet the minimum lot width at the required minimum front setback. Flag lots are designed with a “flag pole” area with a minimum width of 20 feet. The flag pole area is not required to meet the minimum lot width nor does this area count towards the minimum lot size or area. Flag lots must meet the minimum lot width at the end of the flag pole area/base of lot. All lots within a subdivision must meet the required minimum lot width average for the zoning district within this section, Waterfront development standards.

      (2)   Reductions from minimum lot width average requirements for parcels which contain or abut an OCRM critical line may be permitted if the Zoning Administrator determines that one of the following criteria has been met:

         (a)   No more than three waterfront lots are being created from the original parcel and that a reduction of no more than 10% of lot width average is required for any resulting lot; or

         (b) Where two lots of record (lots existing prior to October 18, 2012) have been combined, the resulting lot may be subdivided into the original configuration shown on the previously approved, recorded plat of record, even if the original lots do not meet the minimum lot width requirement of this division (B), provided that the subdivision meets all other requirements of this chapter.

   (C)   Minimum lot standards for dwelling groups on parcels which contain or abut an OCRM critical line. The number of dwelling units shall not exceed the maximum number permitted by the density, intensity, and dimensional standards of the underlying base zoning district. In addition, the dwelling groups shall comply with the requirements of this section, Waterfront development standards, including the minimum lot area and lot width requirements.
