(b) The construction of buildings and additions; and

3. Provide for adequate light and air by:

(a) Limiting building height, bulk, and size; and

1. All applicable project review and approval processes have been followed;

2. All required permits and approvals have been obtained; and

3. All required authorizations to proceed have been issued.

E. Other Regulations. Compliance with the Zoning Ordinance does not relieve an applicant from requirements to comply with other federal, state, and City regulations that also apply to the property. (Ord. 7787-NS § 2 (Exh. A), 2021)

23.102.060 Emergencies.

1. Permits and other approvals valid on the effective date of this Zoning Ordinance remain valid until their expiration date.

1. The Zoning Ordinance and Zoning Map include the overlay zones shown in Table 23.108-2: Overlay Zones. Overlay zones impose additional regulations on properties beyond what is required by the underlying district. As shown in Table 23.108-2: Overlay Zones, provisions for overlay zones that apply to two or more districts are located in Chapter 23.210 (Overlay Zones). Provisions for overlay zones that apply only in one district are located in the Zoning Ordinance chapter for that district.

OVERLAY ZONE SYMBOL	NAME OF OVERLAY ZONE	LOCATION IN ZONING ORDINANCE
Overlay Zones that Apply in Two or More Districts
H	Hillside	23.210.020--Hillside Overlay Zone
C	Civic Center	23.210.030--Civic Center District Overlay Zone
Overlay Zones that Apply in One District
DA	Downtown Arts	23.204.130--C-DMU Downtown Mixed-Use District (Arts Overlay District)

2. If the overlay zone applies a standard to a property that conflicts with the underlying district, the overlay zone standard governs. If the overlay zone is silent on a standard in the underlying district, the underlying district standard applies.

D. Vacated Streets. Where a public street or alley is officially vacated or abandoned, the land area of the street or alley acquires the district classification of the property to which it reverts.
