2   See § 153.193(E)(2)(g) for building coverage bonus for existing principal structures with existing one-car or one-and-a- half-car detached garages.
3   Semi-pervious surface areas (e.g., permeable pavers) may be counted as impervious surface at a reduced rate based on the coefficient of permeability.
4   Lots existing as of January 25, 2011 shall not be considered nonconforming if they exceed the maximum impervious surface requirement of this chapter, and all current impervious surfaces may be repaired and reconstructed. However, if the lot is redeveloped, in that the principal structure is torn down, such lots must then conform to the impervious surface limitations of this chapter.
5   See § 153.193(J) for building coverage bonus for single-family homes with unenclosed front porches.
