Title 17C Land Use Standards
Chapter 17C.122 Center and Corridor Zones
Section 17C.122.220 Height Transition
- Purpose.
The following exception to the maximum building height standards is to provide a gradual transition and enhance the compatibility between the more intensive center zones and adjacent low and moderate residential zones.
- Applicability.
For all development adjacent to R1 or R2 zoned properties the maximum building height is as follows:
- Starting at a height of 40 ft. at R1 and R2 property boundaries, additional building height may be added at a ratio of 2 to 1 (two feet of additional building height for every one foot of additional horizontal distance from the closest R1 or R2 zoned property line).
- The building height transition requirement ends 150 ft. from the R1 or R2 zoned property line. Beyond the transition, the maximum building height of the zone applies.
