ARTICLE VI

SUPPLEMENTAL REGULATIONS

Sec. 40-152.- Vision clearance.

On any corner lot, where front or side yards are required, no wall, fence, structure, sign, tree, shrub, or hedge may be maintained as to cause danger to traffic by obstructing the view, and when topography prevents a clear view, the obstruction shall be moved.

Sec. 40-153. - Location of housing units and buildings.

Only one main building for single-, two- or multiple-family use with permitted accessory buildings may be located upon a lot.

Where a lot is used for retail, commercial, industrial, or a combination of the same, or for a combination of retail and dwelling purposes, more than one main building may be located upon the lot, but only when such buildings conform to all the setbacks, height, parking and density requirements applicable to the uses and districts and when all such main buildings face upon a street or officially approved place, other than an alley. Wherever two or more main buildings will not face upon a street or officially approved place, the same may be permitted when the site plan for such development is approved by the planning and zoning commission. No yard, setback, parking area, storage area, or other requirement for one building shall be computed as being the yard, setback, parking area or other requirement for any other dwelling or use.
