<br />2.4 According to Section 1006, a developer can construct building square footage covering <br />25% of the site, to a height of2 stories above grade, and no more than 35 feet in height and <br />the total building square footage cannot exceed 0.5% of the lot area. <br /> <br />2.5 Given the new ordinances (2000) and Council interpretation, it has been difficult to find a <br />universal interpretation of percent building coverage and floor area ratio (FAR) unless <br />certain exceptions are made. <br /> <br />3.0 CODE INTERPRETATIONS <br /> <br />Staff prepared a series of calculations that demonstrate how building coverage and floor <br />area ratios impact all buildings within the shopping center districts. See the attached charts. <br /> <br />3.1 The FAR requirement would allow a shopping center to construct building square <br />footage up to 50% of the lot area. This means that a one-story shopping center <br />covering the maximum of25% of the lot area could add an entire second level. The <br />maximum height requirement is limited to 2 stories above grade or 35 feet in height <br />above grade. (Section 1006.02.D.) <br /> <br />3.2 In a snapshot, what the staff found was that, using the City GIS system as a <br />measurement basis (not a boundary survey from each parcel), 8 of the 10 centers <br />currently located in districts have building areas that exceed either the 25% land <br />coverage by 3% to 5%. Most centers are between 25% and 30% oflot coverage and <br />25% to 45% floor to area (FAR) ratios. In addition, it appears that some buildings <br />exceed the height limitations. No variances have been found for these <br />inconsistencies. <br /> <br />3.3 Ifparking ramps (for vehicle parking only) are added to the building coverage, 9 of <br />10 shopping centers become non-conforming, including Rosedale, which would <br />preclude expansions or additional parking ramps without variances or Planned Unit <br />development status. (Staffs opinion is that "building coverage" was meant to apply <br />to the structures, which contain office or retail activity, not to the unheated storage <br />areas for cars, which may be above ground, at ground level, or below ground.) <br /> <br />3.4 Alternatives: Some methods that could be used to correct these inconsistencies <br />could include variances to each building; rezoning to a less restrictive zoning district; <br />rezoning each shopping center to a Planned Unit Development specific to the site; <br />changing (increasing) the text of the City Code for building coverage, floor area <br />coverage, and height. <br /> <br />3.5 The attached chart and a diagram from the Rosedale site illustrate part of the <br />dilemma. <br /> <br />Next page <br /> <br />2 <br />
