_____

⁽¹⁾ The council shall require wider spacing between access points and intersecting street right-of-way lines when the project has more than the minimum required frontage on a street. All access points shall be specifically approved by the council.

⁽²⁾ Or one-half the width of the right-of-way of the street serving the project, whichever is larger.

⁽³⁾ The council may, after review and approval by the board, permit buildings to be located closer to the street right-of-way line when such buildings are located along a minor or marginal access street internally serving the residential planned development project site and when such building locations will be compatible with the overall design and arrangement of the residential planned development project.

⁽⁴⁾ A properly maintained landscaped separation strip, of the required width, shall be provided along all property lines and streets serving the project. The reviewing body may also require that the project be permanently screened from adjoining and contiguous properties by a wall, fence, evergreen hedge and/or other approved enclosures. Such screening, if required, shall be located within the required separation strip and shall have a minimum height of eight feet.

⁽⁵⁾ The council may, after review and approval by the board, reduce the required separation strip for industrial planned development projects where such separation strip would prevent buildings from locating adjacent to railroad sidings, provided such reduction would not be detrimental to surrounding areas.

⁽⁶⁾ The council may, after review and approval by the board, reduce the required building setbacks for industrial planned development projects where such buildings would be adjacent to railroad sidings if such reductions would not be detrimental to surrounding areas.

⁽⁷⁾ See residential land area and land use intensity standards.

⁽⁸⁾ The council may, after review and approval by the board, increase the maximum building height permitted provided the increased building height will be compatible with the overall design and arrangement of the planned development project and will not be detrimental to surrounding areas.
