  • Figure 5. Stories
     figure5.png

    Building height shall be as provided in Table 5. Building height shall be measured in stories. Decorative elements such as spires, minarets, clock towers, and cupolas are allowed over the maximum number of stories as long as they do not exceed fifteen (15) feet in height.

    Floor height shall be measured as the clear height from finished slab to finished ceiling (see Table 5 and Figure 5).

    a.

    Buildings in the Village Center are encouraged, but not required, to have a minimum of two (2) stories.

    b.

    Single story buildings shall have a minimum height (as defined in the LDC) of twenty (20) feet.

    c.

    Whenever a ground floor level exceeds twenty (20) feet in height, each height of twelve (12) feet or portion thereof shall be construed to be one (1) story (see Figure 6).

    d.

    Whenever a floor other than a ground floor exceeds fourteen (14) feet in height, each height of fourteen (14) feet or portion thereof shall be construed to be one (1) story.

    e.

    Mezzanines extending beyond 33% of the floor area shall be counted as an additional story.

    f.

    Parking garages are exempt from the floor height requirements.

    g.

    An additional building setback (see Table 5) shall apply to buildings adjacent to, or across the street from, a Neighborhood or Transition character zones or single family residentially-zoned property. Developers may elect to apply the setback just to those floors above the third story (step back approach, see Figure 7 - Option A), to the entire façade (Option B) or a combination of the two (Option C). The additional setback/step-back requirement may render some sites ineligible for the maximum permitted height.
