The minimum lot area, width and depth requirements of the underlying land use zoning district within the City Code shall apply provided that not more than 25% of the lot area may be included in any storm pond or wetland area (which is below the normal level of the adjacent storm water pond) to meet the minimum lot area dimension. 18.041 Additional Lot Dimension Requirements for Shoreland Overlay Districts 18.041.1 Residential subdivisions with dwelling unit densities exceeding those in the tables in Sections 18.040.2 through 18.040.4 may only be allowed if designed and approved as residential planned unit developments under Section18 of the City code. Only land above the ordinary high water level of public waters may be used to meet lot area standards. Lot width standards shall be met at both the ordinary high water level and at the building line, except in a residential planned unit development. Not more than 25% of the lot area of each lot may be included in any wetland, which is below the normal ordinary high water level. 18.041.2 Lots intended as controlled accesses to public waters or as recreation areas for use by owners of nonriparian lots within subdivisions shall be allowed only as part of a conditional use permit or planned unit development and shall meet or exceed the following standards: 1) they shall be suitable in terms of physical access and potential slope erosion and vegetation damage for the intended uses of controlled access lots; they shall have a specific lot size not less than 170 feet (2-85' wide lots combined). they shall be jointly owned by all purchasers of lots in the subdivision or by all purchasers of nonriparian lots in the subdivision who are provided riparian access rights on the access lot; and covenants or other equally effective legal instruments shall be developed that specify which lot owners have authority to use the access lot and what activities are allowed. The activities may include watercraft launching, loading, storage, beaching, mooring, or docking. They may also include other outdoor recreational activities that do not significantly conflict with general public use of the public water or the enjoyment of normal property rights by adjacent property owners. Examples of the nonsignificant conflict activities include swimming, sunbathing, or picnicking. The covenants shall limit the total number of vehicles allowed to be parked and the total number of watercraft allowed to be continuously moored, docked, or stored over water, and shall require centralization of all common facilities and activities in the most suitable locations on the lot to minimize topographic and vegetation alterations. They shall also require all parking areas, storage buildings, and other facilities to be screened by vegetation or topography as much as practical from view from the public water, assuming summer, leaf-on conditions. 2) 3) 4) 18.045.
