setback (but not into the sidewalk), including, but not <br />limited to: <br />a. Rain barrels or cisterns, six (6) feet or less in height <br />when in the primary or side street setback; <br />b. Planter boxes; <br />c. Bioretention areas; and <br />d. Similar features, as determined by the Responsible <br />Official. <br />4. Other Setback Encroachments <br />a. Fence and walls under Section 7.2.6.1. <br />b. Signs under Section 7.3.1.1. <br />c. Driveways under Section 3.6.4.2. <br />Section 4.3.3.3 Build -To Zone <br />A. The build -to is the area on the lot where a certain percentage of <br />the front principal building facade must be located, measured <br />as a minimum and maximum setback range from the edge of <br />the proposed or existing right-of-way, whichever is greater. <br />B. The required percentage specifies the amount of the front <br />building facade that must be located in the build -to, measured <br />based on the width of the building divided by the width of the <br />site or lot. <br />F IIGURE 4.6 MEASURER URIE IBUIfIV.IkD M ZONE <br />C. Intent <br />1. The build -to is intended to provide a range for building <br />placement that strengthens the street edge along the right- <br />of-way, establishing a sense of enclosure by providing <br />spatial definition adjacent to the street. <br />2. The building edge can be supplemented by architectural <br />elements and certain tree plantings aligned in a formal <br />pattern. The harmonious placement of buildings to <br />establish the street edge is a principal means by which the <br />character of an area or district is defined. <br />3. The build -to range is established to accommodate some <br />flexibility in specific site design while maintaining the <br />established street edge. <br />D. General Requirements <br />1. On corner lots, a building facade must be placed within the <br />build -to for the first 30 feet along the street extending from <br />the block corner. <br />2. With the exception of parking areas, all structures and <br />uses customarily allowed on the lot are permitted in the <br />build -to area. <br />Downtown Design l::inal Dralt: March 2021 Sail Maiicca, Devo�cpiriaii7f Cod 4:25 <br />
