(a) Whenever the Planning Commission certifies to City Council any such plan for districting or zoning of the City according to the bulk and location of buildings and other structures (including percentage of lot occupancy, setback building lines, and area of yards, courts, and other open spaces), then City Council may in the interest of the promotion of the public health, safety, convenience, comfort, prosperity, or general welfare, regulate the bulk and location of buildings and other structures thereafter erected or altered, the percentage of lot occupancy, setback building lines, and the area of yards, courts, and other open spaces and for such purposes may divide the City into districts of such number, shape, and area as may be deemed best suited to carry out the purposes of this section.
(1) Any regulation imposing a less percentage of lot occupancy, wider or larger courts, deeper yards or other more strict limitations than those provided by State statute shall, within the district for which it is imposed, prevail over the limitations provided by State statutes.
