[Ord. No. 875-17 § 1, 1-18-2017]
A. The intent of this Article is to provide, with the granting of a
special use, a voluntary and alternate zoning procedure in the "R-1"
and "R-2" residential zone districts, to permit flexibility in building
types and arrangements that would not be possible under the strict
application of the zoning district, encourage a creative approach
to the use of land and related physical facilities that result in
better design to preserve existing site topography, major tree cover
and natural water features on and adjacent to the development and
to contribute to the enhancement of the City's urban design with attention
to abutting neighborhoods and roadway systems.
B. This district is intended for attached single-family structures separated
into two (2) owner-occupied living units. They include common wall
construction, individual garages, private yards, landscaped common
areas, and homeownership is required.
C. Maintenance of the public and private outdoor areas is provided by
a property management organization.
[Ord. No. 875-17 § 1, 1-18-2017]

previously approved for detached single-family dwellings.
B. The mean average of the unit lots of the development will be no less
than 1 acre in "R-1" and 1/2, acre in "R-2." Common ground can be
added to affect the average. Roads and other similar facilities can
be considered common ground for the purposes of calculating density.
C. Single-family attached dwellings shall not form long unbroken lines
of row housing. Moreover, no more than two (2) contiguous single-family
attached dwellings shall be built with the same front line. The required
difference in front lines shall be a minimum of three (3) feet. It
is preferred that the dwellings be arranged in groupings to allow
for more efficient use of land and provide for more open space.
D. Sanitary sewers are required and shall be in accordance with standards
no less than the provisions required by the ordinances of the City
of Byrnes Mill.
E. Sidewalks are required and shall be in accordance with all existing
requirements and codes of the City of Byrnes Mill.

and be spaced no more than every four hundred (400) feet.

XVIII, Chapter
400, of the Code of Ordinances, Off-Street Parking And Loading Requirements.
I. Acceptable provisions shall be made on any plan or plat to provide
for traffic control for entrance to and exit from said development.
J. Acceptable provisions shall be made on any plan or plat to provide
a twenty-foot buffer around the perimeter of the development.
K. All standards as set forth in Article
II, Chapter
405, Subdivision Regulations, shall apply.
L. All regulations of the City of Byrnes Mill or all ordinances with
respect to the City of Byrnes Mill concerning bonding requirements
and escrow requirements shall be met in this regard.
