   B.   Measurement Of Distances:
      1.   For purposes of this section, the width of public or private roadways shall be included in computing setback distances. For example, if a roadway is located on the boundary of a Residential Zoning District, the measurements required under this section shall be made from the property line of that roadway which is nearest the residential use or zone.

   D.   Decision Of Building Official: The City building official shall determine the height of a building under this section. That decision is deemed to be an administrative decision and may be appealed to the Appeal Authority as provided in this title. (Ord. 14-10: Ord. 07-30 § 2)
