Garage entrances shall face side parcel lines on all parcels
having front setbacks of less than 25 feet. The minimum garage setbacks
shall be 20 feet measured from the face of the garage door to the
front property line.
| ||
2.
|
All front setbacks in a subdivision shall average a minimum
of not less than 25 feet.
| ||
3.
|
For single-family residences, a recreational vehicle may be
parked within a side yard setback provided that such area is paved
and screened from view from the public right-of-way by screening material
at least six feet in height. This area cannot be within five feet
of the rear property line or within the fifteen feet of the exterior
side setback on corner parcels. No persons shall reside in such vehicles
while parked within the residential lot.
| ||
4.
|
Carport structures shall be fire rated in compliance with the
Building Code and may be required to be screened for aesthetic purposes.
No structure shall be allowed within the front setback or exterior
side setback on corner parcels and not less than three feet from the
standard interior side or rear setback. All carport structures shall
be open on at least two sides and are subject to the review of the
director.
| ||
5.
|
Portable storage containers are not permitted within the front
yard setback for more than thirty days.
| ||
6.
|
Density Designation. The ordinance establishing any residential
zone may contain a number suffixed with the zone symbol. The number
shall be the number of square feet of total parcel area allocated
to each dwelling unit. The designation may be indicated on the Zoning
Map (e.g., R-2-3000, R-2-3600). The designation shall not exceed the
density specified in the General Plan.
| ||
7.
|
R-2: Height. When abutting an R-1 zone, no structure shall exceed
one story in height within 50 feet of the subject boundary and shall
not exceed 2 stories within 100 feet of the subject boundary.
| ||
8.
|
R-2, R-3, and R-4: Open Space Requirements. The open space areas
shall not include any type of roofed or enclosed structure (except
a specifically designated recreation structure), driveway, driveway
easement, open parking, or required front or exterior side setbacks.
Equipped outdoor recreation areas containing swimming pools, children's
playgrounds with equipment, tennis, volleyball, shuffleboard, or handball
courts, and similar facilities may be counted as one square foot of
area fulfilling 2 square feet of the required open space area as may
be determined by the director. The director's determinations may be
appealed directly to the council.
| ||
9.
|
R-2, R-3, and R-4: Private Balconies and Patios. Private balcony
and patio areas may be utilized to fulfill not more than 50 percent
of the open space requirement, provided the areas have direct access
from the dwelling unit it is designed to serve, a minimum dimension
of seven feet, and a minimum area of 70 square feet.
| ||
10.
|
R-3 and R-4: Accessory Structures.
| ||
a.
|
Accessory structures except carport structures and enclosed storage structures as defined in Section 17.02.212 shall observe the same front, side, and rear setbacks as the main structures.
| ||
b.
|
Enclosed storage structures are allowed on interior side or
rear property lines provided that all of the following conditions
are met:
| ||
(1)
|
The minimum acreage of the related development project shall
be 3.5 acres;
| ||
(2)
|
The enclosed storage structure shall not exceed 1,000 square
feet in area and one story in height;
| ||
(3)
|
A conditional use permit and precise plan of design application
in compliance with provisions of this Development Code shall be required;
| ||
(4)
|
The enclosed storage structure shall be allowed on property
lines that are adjacent to zoning designations that allow development
equal to or more intense than the R-3 zone; and
| ||
(5)
|
Subject to a finding that there is no other reasonable location
for the enclosed storage structure on the subject property.
| ||
c.
|
The minimum distance between structures shall be 10 feet exclusive
of any vehicular accessway or parking area with an additional 5 feet
for each story over one on an accessory structure.
| ||
d.
|
Garages or carports opening onto an alley shall supply a minimum
turning radius of 25 feet to the opposite side of the alley.
| ||
11.
|
R-3 and R-4: Garages and Parking Areas. When a parcel abuts
an arterial highway, as depicted on the Master Plan of Arterial Highways,
and an alley or local street, access to all garages and parking spaces
shall be from the alleys or local streets and not from the arterial
highway. No more than 2 garage spaces shall take access directly from
a local street for each 65 feet of parcel frontage on a local street.
No open parking shall take access directly from a local street. Any
garage entered directly from the street shall have a minimum setback
of 20 feet from the ultimate rightof-way, measured from the face of
the garage door to the front property line.
| ||
12.
|
R-3 and R-4: Side and Rear Setbacks. The interior side setback
shall be maintained free and unencumbered from the ground to the sky
and shall not be used for any driveway, parking space, or access.
If a dwelling unit faces an interior side setback, the minimum required
setback shall be the same as that required for a front setback (20
feet) with an additional five feet supplied for each additional story
above a one-story structure.
| ||
13.
|
Landscaping. Any part of a developed parcel that is visible from the street, including turf on separated parkways, shall be landscaped in compliance with Section 17.02.215 (Landscaping). On a natural slope, the slope may be left in its natural condition or as otherwise required; however, a manufactured slope shall be landscaped. All lawns, yards, and gardens visible from the street shall be maintained in a manner which creates a neat, clean, and orderly appearance and which prevents visual blight and property deterioration. Pruning, mowing and edging of lawns, weeding, removal of litter, fertilizing, and regular watering of all plantings are examples of proper maintenance. All dead plants shall be replaced. Landscaping shall be maintained by the property owner or any occupant or person in charge or control of the subject property.
| ||
14.
|
Minimum Floor Area. For purposes of this section, any separately
enclosed, habitable room shown on a submitted floor plan shall be
considered a bedroom regardless of designation as a "den," "family
room," "study," or similar room. No balcony, patio, porch, or similar
feature shall be considered in determining unit floor area.
| ||
15.
|
Block Walls. Block walls that are visible to the public shall
be constructed of decorative type block and a decorative prefabricated
block cap.
