§ 6. Setbacks.  


Latest version.
  • All buildings located on a parcel fronting a public or private dedicated street right-of-way shall be oriented towards such right-of-way and are subject to the following standards:

    (1)

    All new buildings shall maintain no more than a ten-foot setback from the right-of-way line. While the intent is to mass the buildings on the property lines, up to 20 percent of a building's facade may be notched, recessed or extended to accentuate entrances, dining areas, windows or the outdoor display of merchandise when permitted.

    (2)

    Infill development may be set back a distance equal to the average setback of the adjacent uses from the adjoining right-of-way, but in no case shall the buildings be more than 30 feet from the right-of-way line.

    (3)

    All buildings shall contain an identifiable entrance and a path of entry from the street or adjoining sidewalk.

    (4)

    Where buildings are set back from the street, a strong pedestrian connection shall be provided to the street sidewalk to promote connectivity to the existing or planned pedestrian network.
