Notes to Appendix I
(See Appendix I chart in addition to the following notes)

(a)

The minimum residential lot area for the various districts shall be in accordance with the regulations for each district, except that a lot having less area than required which was an official "lot of record" at the time of the adoption of this ordinance may be used for a one family dwelling. No lot existing at the time of passage of this ordinance shall be reduced in area below the minimum requirements set forth in the respective district.

(b)

The front yard setback shall be measured from the property line to the front face of the building, covered porch, covered terrace, or attached accessory buildings. Eaves and roof extensions or a porch without posts or columns may project into the required front yard for a distance not to exceed four feet and subsurface structures, platforms, or slabs may not project into the front yard to a height greater than 30 inches above the average grade of the yard.

On corner lots, the front yard setback shall be observed along the frontage of both intersecting streets (unless shown specifically otherwise on a final plat).

Where a building line has been established by a plat approved by the city council or by ordinance and such line requires a greater or lesser front yard setback than is prescribed by this ordinance for the district in which the building line is located, the required front yard shall comply with the building line so established by such ordinance or plat provided no such building line shall be less than 20 feet, except as approved under a planned development (see section 20).

Where the frontage on one side of a street between two intersecting streets is divided by two or more zoning districts, the front yard shall comply with the requirements of the most restrictive district for the entire frontage.

Where lots have double frontage, running through from one street to another, a required front yard shall be provided on both streets unless a building line for accessory buildings has been established along one frontage on the plat or by ordinance, in which event only one required front yard need be observed.

On any corner lot for which front and side yards are required, no wall, fence, structure, sign, tree, or other planting or sloped terrace or embankment may be maintained higher than three feet above the street grade so as to cause danger or hazard to traffic by obstructing the view of the intersection from a point 30 feet back from the right-of-way corner. Visual clearance shall be provided in all zoning districts so that no fence, wall, vegetation, architectural screen, earth mounding, or landscaping obstructs the vision of a motor vehicle driver approaching any street, alley, or driveway intersection.

Where a future right-of-way line has been established for future widening or opening of a street or thoroughfare upon which a lot abuts, the front or side yard shall be measured from the future right-of-way.

(c)

Every part of a required side yard shall be open and unobstructed except for:

(1)

Accessory buildings as permitted in article VI of this chapter;

(2)

The ordinary projections of window sills, belt courses, cornices, and other architectural features not more than 12 inches into the required side yard; and

(3)

Roof eaves projecting not more than 36 inches into the required side yard. Balconies shall not project into the required side yard.

When a nonresidentially zoned lot or tract abuts upon a zoning district boundary line dividing that lot or tract from a residentially zoned lot or tract, a minimum side yard of ten feet shall be provided on the nonresidential property. An opaque wood fence or masonry wall having a minimum height of six feet above the average grade of the residential property shall be constructed on nonresidential property adjacent to the common side or rear property line.

(d)

The required rear yard shall be open and unobstructed from a point 30 inches above the average elevation of the graded read yard, except for accessory buildings as permitted herein. Eaves, covered porches, and roof extensions without structural support in the rear yard may extend into the rear yard a distance not to exceed four feet. Balconies shall not project into the required rear yard.

(e)

A one-story wing or extension may be built to within 15 feet of the rear lot line.

(f)

No lot containing multifamily units shall contain less than 9,000 square feet total or 1,500 square feet per dwelling unit, whichever is greater.

Minimum lot sizes for townhouses and zero lot line houses shall be 3,000 square feet per dwelling unit. See section 56-666.

Minimum lot sizes for all other permitted uses shall be 7,500 square feet or 1,500 square feet per living unit, whichever is greater.

(g)

Lot width for a lot containing multifamily, townhouse, or zero lot line units shall be 20 feet per ground floor unit plus side yard requirements. Lot width for a lot containing other permitted uses shall be not less than 60 feet.

(h)

If a side yard or rear yard is adjacent to a single-family residential district, there shall be a 25-foot setback and a 60-foot setback from the adjacent property line for buildings in excess of one story in height. If more than one building is located on the same lot, there shall be a ten-foot separation between buildings without openings (windows) and 15 feet between buildings with openings.

(i)

The height of any multifamily building sited on a lot adjacent to an area zoned for single-family dwellings or where single-family dwellings of one story in height exist shall be limited to one story for a distance of 60 feet from the single-family district boundary or the land on which the single-family dwelling is located.

(j)

See section 56-707(b) for additional open space for multifamily regulations.

(k)

In a nonresidential district the front yard setback shall be 45 feet where parking is allowed in front of the building. Accessory buildings shall have a 60-foot front yard setback.

(l)

In a nonresidential district a side yard of not less than 15 feet in width shall be provided on the side of a lot adjoining a residential district even when separated by an alley. When adjacent to a residential district, even when separated by an alley, no windows shall be permitted above ten feet on the building sides facing such residential district. In addition, a masonry or wood wall having a minimum height of six feet above the average grade of the residential property shall be constructed on the nonresidential property adjacent to the common side property line.

(m)

In a nonresidential district no building shall exceed 50 feet in height, except cooling towers, roof gables, chimneys, vent stacks, or mechanical equipment rooms, which may project not more than 12 feet beyond maximum building height.

(n)

In a nonresidential district a front yard of not less than 50 feet shall be provided upon that portion of a lot abutting or across a street or alley from property in a residential or commercial district.

(o)

In a nonresidential district a side yard or a side street yard of not less than 25 feet in width shall be provided on the side of the lot adjoining or across a street or alley from a residential or commercial district. In addition, a masonry or wood wall having a minimum height of six feet above the average grade of the residential property shall be constructed on the nonresidential property adjacent to the common side property line.

(p)

In a nonresidential district a rear yard of not less than 50 feet in depth shall be provided upon that portion of a lot abutting or across a rear street or alley from a residential district, except that such rear yard requirement shall be 25 feet in depth where the property in the residential district backs up to the rear street. In addition, a masonry or wood wall having a minimum height of six feet above the average grade of the residential property shall be constructed on the nonresidential property adjacent to the common side property line.

(q)

In a nonresidential district a building may be erected to a height of 80 feet if setback from all required yard lines is increased a distance of one foot for every two feet of additional height above 50 feet. This requirement is in addition to all other relevant setback requirements.

(r)

An industrial use side yard requirements shall be not less than 50 feet in width and provided for on the side of the lot adjoining or across the street from a residential or commercial district.
