In Industrial Districts, the following limitations and requirements shall apply:
(a) Height. No building shall be built to a height exceeding one and one-half times the width of the street upon which the building abuts. Buildings may exceed the above height limit providing the portion of the building greater than one and one-half times the width of the street is set back from every street and lot line, one foot for each three feet of height in excess of one and one-half times the width of the street. The height limitations of a wider street shall govern for a distance of 120 feet along a narrower intersecting street, measured at right angles to such wider street.
(b) Side Yards. There shall be a side yard on each side of every building or portion of a building used as a dwelling. The minimum width of any such side yard shall be five feet which shall be increased three feet for each additional story above two stories.
(c) Courts. An outer court may be substituted for a side yard, providing every room in which people live or sleep can be adequately lighted and ventiled from such court. Such outer court shall be in width not less than eight percent of the width of the lot, which court width shall be at least three inches for every foot of height of the highest wall abutting such court. Such court shall not be less in length than twice its width.
Wherever any room in which people live or sleep cannot be adequately lighted and ventilated from a street, rear yard, side yard or outer court, an inner court must be provided, which inner court shall not be less than eight feet wide nor less than three inches in width for every foot of height of the highest wall abutting such court. Such inner court shall not be less in length than twice its width.
(d) Rear Yard. Dwelling shall have a rear yard, the minimum depth of which shall be sixteen feet, increasing four feet for each additional story above the first story.
(Ord. 675. Passed 9-28-53.)
(e) Setback. Where there is no building fronting on either side of the street within the block, no new building shall be erected with its street wall or walls nearer than twenty-five feet to the street line; however, this provision does not include steps, uncovered porches and covered but unenclosed porches on the first story which do not extend more than ten feet beyond the front wall of the building. On a corner lot the street frontages which are not opposite to the rear lot line, shall be exempt from the above provisions.
