(Ord. No. 895-A, § 1, 2-11-74)

On any lot separately owned on August 18, 1956, a single-family dwelling may be erected even though such lot has less area than required by these regulations.

Only one main building for single-family, two-family, or multiple-family use, with permitted accessory buildings, may be located upon a lot or unplatted tract. Every dwelling shall face or front upon a street or officially approved place, other than an alley, which means of access shall have a minimum width of 30 feet. Where a lot or tract of land is used for commercial or industrial purposes, more than one main building may be located upon the lot but only when such buildings conform to all the open space, parking and density requirements applicable to the uses and district, and when all such main buildings face upon a street or officially approved place, other than an alley. Whenever two or more main buildings, or portions thereof, are placed upon a single lot or tract and such 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 city plan commission so as to comply with the normal requirements for platting.

(a)

No building or other structure, or portions thereof, shall be erected or maintained by any property owner, lessee, licensee, contractor or government entity not otherwise exempt by law, which creates interference or obstruction to the City of Richardson's law enforcement, public safety, general government or emergency telecommunications networks.

(b)

To ensure compliance with this section, any person or entity intending to construct or erect, within the City of Richardson, a building or structure greater than 50 feet in height, shall submit plans, either as part of the building permit review process or, if a site plan is required, as a part of the site plan process, that indicates the location and height of all buildings or structures in excess of 50 feet in height. Said application shall request of the city a determination of compliance of the proposed construction. The city shall determine within 30 days, whether or not the proposed building or structure would create a disturbance or interference to the City of Richardson's telecommunications network.

(c)

If a determination is made that the proposed building or structure would create a disturbance or interference, the property owner, lessee, licensee, contractor or government entity may:

(1)

Modify their plans in such a manner as to remove the interference or disturbance; or

(2)

Provide appropriate facilities and/or equipment at no cost to the city to ensure the continued satisfactory operation of the telecommunications network.
