Building height is regulated in both number of <br />stories and feet and is measured from the average grade to the <br />mean height level between the eaves and ridge of a gable, hip, <br />mansard, or gambrel roof or to the highest point of roof surface <br />of a flat roof. <br />F IIGURE 4.9KASURENG HUGH ' <br />Ritrh pd R'nn-f Ream Rnnf <br />MaxG' <br />irapet Walla <br />p of R;oor <br />B. Average Grade. Average grade is determined by calculating <br />the average of the highest and lowest elevation along pre - <br />development grade or improved grade (whichever is more <br />restrictive) along the front of the building parallel to the primary <br />street setback. Where mass -grading has been approved by the <br />City, average grade shall be considered the improved grade <br />following such mass grading. <br />FIGURE 410 NERAGE GRADE <br />High <br />C.
