A.

Building setback lines in the C-2 district shall be measured from street right of-way lines and the requirements shall not be less than specified setback and apply in descending order as follows:

1.

That distance specified if the site is subject to an ordinance, overlay, plat, or variance.

2.

That distance equal to one-half the right-of-way as denoted on the Columbus Thoroughfare Plan (CTP) if the site abuts a designated CTP street unless buildings exist on both abutting parcels at less than a 25 foot setback, then the setback would be no less than the distance equal to the average of the building setbacks on both abutting parcels (For corner lots with either or both lot frontages are less than 65 feet, the setback shall be as shown below for corner lots).

3.

If the site does not abut a designated CTP street, the setback shall be no less than 25 feet, unless buildings exist on both abutting parcels at less than a 25 foot setback, then the setback would be no less than the distance equal to the average of the building setbacks on both abutting parcels (For corner lots with either or both lot frontages are less than 65 feet, the setback shall be as shown below for corner lots).

4.

For corner lots where none of the above apply and either or both lot frontages are less than 65 feet, the setback along the shortest frontage shall not be less than the setback of the nearest building on an abutting parcel if less than 25 feet or no less than 25 feet if no building exists and shall be no less than ten feet along the longest street frontage. In instances of conflict, the most restrictive building setback applies.

B.

All structures except graphics shall be setback behind the building line unless otherwise permitted elsewhere on site by an overlay or other provisions of this Zoning Code.

C.

Graphic setbacks shall be in compliance with provisions of Article XV of this Zoning Code, unless specified in an overlay or area of special graphics control.
