      (1)   Office Uses. Office uses, as defined in Planning Code Section 102 shall not be subject to the use size limits for Office uses in the PDR-2 District set forth in the PDR Zoning Control Table and the non-residential use size limits in the PDR-2 District set forth in the PDR Zoning Control Table, however, a new or expanded Office use is not permitted if the total amount of Office use on one of the parcels designated above would exceed 50,000 gross square feet.

      (3)   Institutional Uses. Social Service and Philanthropic Facilities as defined in Section 102 shall not be subject to the use-size limit for the PDR-2 District set forth in the PDR Zoning Control Table. Child-Care facilities as defined in Section 102 shall be principally permitted. Health Service uses, as defined in Section 102 of this Code, primarily providing outpatient care in medical, psychiatric or other healing arts shall be principally permitted if the gross floor area of such facility is less than 7,000 square feet. Such clinics may be affiliated with a medical institution, which institution has met the applicable provisions of Section 304.5 of this Code concerning institutional master plans. Health Service uses primarily providing outpatient care in medical, psychiatric or other healing art with a gross floor area equal to or greater than 7,000 square feet, whether or not affiliated with a Hospital, which institution has met the applicable provisions of Section 304.5 of this Code concerning institutional master plans, shall require Conditional Use authorization pursuant to Section 303.
      (4)   Off-Street Parking. The minimum off-street parking requirements set forth in Section 151 of this Code shall not apply.

   (b)   Front Setbacks. All parcels within this Special Use District shall provide landscaped front setbacks at depths and along frontages identified in this Subsection. The intent is to maintain and reinforce existing landscaped front setbacks, including the landscaped berms, India Basin Industrial Park signs, and tree hedges. Such setbacks shall be completely and appropriately landscaped and shall remain unpaved and devoted to plant material, excepting reasonable space necessary for ingress and egress to properties. Except as set forth in this Subsection for corner properties, only those permitted obstructions identified in Section 132(f) shall be permitted within such front setback. Corner properties with frontage along more than one street identified below shall provide the required setback along all applicable frontages with two exceptions: (1) the required setback along each frontage may be reduced to the depth of the front setback of an existing building on an adjacent lot along the same frontage, provided that the adjacent building occupies at least half of the width of the adjacent lot, and (2) building elements may extend into portions of the required setback, resulting in an irregular setback, provided that the total area of the resulting setback along each frontage is at least equal to the total area of the setback that would otherwise be required. The required front setbacks are as follows:
      (1)   Third Street, east side, north of Burke Avenue, 10 feet.
