(a) Primary Use. Residential A Uses shall permit single-family dwellings as their primary use. In addition to single-family dwellings, two-family dwellings as defined in Section 1131.06
shall be permitted as hereinafter provided.
(b) Maintaining Integrity of the Neighborhood. In the event that a new residential structure is constructed in, or moved into, a Residential A area, the new structure shall conform in style and appearance with the overall architectural style and appearance of the neighborhood. All new residential structures shall have a minimum width and depth of twenty-four feet, and, in addition, shall have a full height basement as prescribed in the CABO Code. The basement shall have a minimum area of 750 square feet. The Building Official, however, may, upon written application, waive the aforementioned requirement of a basement so long as such waiver is consistent with the overall architectural nature of the neighborhood. Any denial of such a variance by the Building Official may be reviewed in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Building Code of the City.
All new structures shall have a brick or concrete block skirting from the bottom of the floor or siding to the ground, installed to proper frost depth.
