§ 5-3-16 LOT DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS.

   (A)   All buildings or structures or portions of structures developed or modified under the terms of this title shall comply with the development standards of Tables 6, Development Standards, 7, Lot Configurations, and 8, Building Structure Setback Requirements, of this section.

   (B)   Street frontage/lot width in the case of a lot fronting on a curving street or around a curving portion of a cul-de-sac street shall be the distance between the side lot lines measured along the chord at the front setback line.

   (C)   Some developments within the city contain standards regulating issues such as building/structure height, yard setbacks, floor area ratio and fencing, which may be less or more restrictive than the development standards contained within this section. Such individualized standards, typically prescribed by conditions of approval of the underlying subdivisions or planned developments, shall prevail over the standards contained within this section, except where, as determined by the Planning Director, application of standards unique to a particular development would be inconsistent with the general plan. In such cases, the Planning Director shall consult with the Planning Commission in determining if current standards from this title should be applied.
