Except as may be provided elsewhere in this Chapter, the provisions of this Article shall establish the necessary minimum and maximum requirements of area, bulk, density, and yards for every district established by this Chapter. No building or structure shall be erected, converted, enlarged, reconstructed, or structurally altered in violation of the requirements of this Article.

Any structure constructed in conformance with the bulk and setback regulations then in effect prior to the adoption of this Chapter shall not be deemed non-conforming with respect to the new bulk and yard regulations in this Article. However, any addition or enlargement to such structure must be made in conformance with the new regulations.

The table below specifies the general minimum and maximum requirements of area, bulk, yards, and density for the low density residential zoning districts. These requirements may be modified as permitted elsewhere in this Chapter.

(A)

Purpose. The LFOZ Lakefront Density and Character Overlay Zone is intended to preserve the density and character of lots in the R4 Low-To-Moderate Density Residential District located along the lakefront. Lake Michigan and the parcels located along the lakefront are important elements in defining the City's character. Many of the parcels along the lakefront have lot areas that are substantially larger than the minimum lot area requirements of the R4 District. The LFOZ Overlay Zone is intended to preserve the spacious character and existing density of the area. The preservation and appropriate development of the lakefront area requires, with certain exceptions, the establishment of special lot width and lot area regulations for newly subdivided lots in the LFOZ Overlay Zone. These new restrictions recognize the existing conditions of many of the lakefront lots and require new development in the LFOZ Overlay Zone to be consistent with these existing conditions. The LFOZ Overlay Zone is intended to address, among other things, a recent development trend in the City to subdivide larger lots along the lakefront. These new lots are, in many cases, inconsistent with the existing conditions along the lakefront. In addition to protecting the character and density of the area, the LFOZ Overlay Zone is intended to protect and preserve the ravines, lake bluffs, and beaches in the area, as well as Lake Michigan itself, and to prevent unnecessary erosion of properties in the LFOZ Overlay Zone, that may be affected or caused by increased development, whether on lots in the LFOZ Overlay Zone or within the abutting portions of Lake Michigan. This Section is specifically intended to permit property owners within the LFOZ Overlay Zone to develop their properties and to construct structures on the beach and in Lake Michigan, as further set forth in this Section and in the most environmentally and ecologically sensitive manner possible. The LFOZ Overlay Zone is consistent with the goals of the Lakefront District Neighborhood Strategic Plan, an element of the Master Plan, which plan was adopted by the City Council after numerous neighborhood planning meetings at which lakefront property owners and other City residents participated. The LFOZ Overlay Zone has been created and shall be mapped on the Zoning Map in furtherance of these public purposes.

(B)

Overlay Zone. The LFOZ Overlay Zone appears on the Zoning Map as an "overlay zone" imposed on top of certain properties located along the lakefront in the R4 District. Development of property in the LFOZ Overlay Zone must comply with the regulations of the LFOZ Overlay Zone and with the R4 District regulations. Except as required by Subsection (C) of this Section, the R4 District regulations shall apply to all lots in the LFOZ Overlay Zone. Where there is any conflict between the LFOZ Overlay Zone and the R4 District, the provisions of the LFOZ Overlay Zone shall apply.

(C)

Zoning Relief. Nothing in this Section 150.703.1 shall be interpreted to deny the right of any property owner to seek a variation or other applicable zoning relief from the provisions of this Section, pursuant to the applicable procedures set forth in this Code.

(D)

Special Bulk Regulations.

(1)

Minimum Area for Single-Family Residence. Except only as provided in Paragraph (4) of this Subsection, no subdivision of any lot in the LFOZ Overlay Zone shall create any new lot that has a minimum area for a single-family residence of less than 40,000 square feet.

(2)

Average Width. Except only as provided in Paragraph (4) of this Subsection, no subdivision of any lot in the LFOZ Overlay Zone shall create any new lot that has an average width of less than 100 feet.

(3)

Minimum Lot Area Per Dwelling Unit, Single-Family. Except only as provided in Paragraph (4) of this Subsection, no subdivision of any lot in the LFOZ Overlay Zone shall create any new lot that has a minimum lot area per single-family dwelling unit of less than 40,000 square feet.

(4)

Effective Date. The special bulk regulations set forth in this Subsection (D) shall only apply to subdivisions for which a complete application is filed with the City after December 11, 2000, being the effective date of the LFOZ Overlay Zone and regulations (the "Effective Date")

(5)

Exceptions. The special bulk regulations set forth in this Subsection (D) shall not apply to any subdivision (i) that consists of a lot or lots the boundaries of which were described as property boundaries in a deed recorded prior to the Effective Date, or (ii) that results in the increase in size of any lot in the LFOZ Overlay Zone that, as of the Effective Date, was less than 40,000 square feet in size ("Existing Small Lot") and that does not result in the decrease in size of any other Existing Small Lot.

Many of the lots in the SLOZ Overlay Zone have lot areas, lot widths, and side yards that are substantially smaller than the minimum requirements under the R6 District. The special lot area, lot width, and side yard regulations for the SLOZ Overlay Zone are intended to make these smaller lots conforming under the provisions of the SLOZ Overlay Zone. The SLOZ Overlay Zone is consistent with the goals of the South Green Bay Road District Plan, an element of the Master Plan, which plan was adopted by the City Council after neighborhood planning meetings at which owners of property within the SLOZ Overlay Zone and other City residents participated. The SLOZ Overlay Zone has been created and shall be mapped on the Zoning Map in furtherance of these public purposes.

(B)

Overlay Zone. The SLOZ Overlay Zone appears on the Zoning Map as an "overlay zone" imposed on top of certain properties within the R6 District. Properties in the SLOZ Overlay Zone must comply with the regulations of the SLOZ Overlay Zone and with the R6 District regulations.
