HomeMy WebLinkAboutRequest_200 wide lots, UDO 5.05 D3, PZ 2020-00168UDO 5.05 D 3: lots that are 200’ wide or greater shall have at least two (2) principal buildings,
cumulatively covering at least seventy (70%) of the lot’s width.
BZA Variance Request, PZ-2020-00168, UDO 5.05 D 3
UDO Considerations:
Lot: a portion of a subdivision or other parcel of land intended as a unit of transfer of ownership
or development and having its principal frontage on a street.
•The multifamily buildings could have been platted as one lot due to common ownership,
rather than the individual three parcels. Had the lines been drawn differently the UDO 5.05
D 3 would not apply.
•If each lot was determined to have multiple frontages that required 70% coverage it would
create a practical difficulty in providing adequate guest parking for the retail uses, which are
desirable in mixed use Urban Residential districts. The parking areas were intentionally
designed to be placed away from the residential views along Smoky Row.
Building DESIGN at North End:
•The shared massing and proposed density have been received favorably as shown
throughout the Primary Plat process.
