§ 58.603. Procedural Requirements.

Zero-Lot-Line Development may be approved in connection with Preliminary Subdivision or Minor Plat approval for one or two family dwellings wherever such dwellings are permitted under this Chapter. An applicant wishing to undertake Zero-Lot-Line Development shall specifically request such approval in connection with application for Preliminary Subdivision or Minor Plat approval.

The City Council may also require Zero-Lot-Line Development as a condition of Preliminary Subdivision or Minor Plat approval where, in the review of the Preliminary Subdivision, they find that Zero-Lot-Line Development is essential for the provision of open space, for protection of natural features or other amenities, for efficient utilization of land or facilities, or for the implementation of the policies of the City's adopted Growth Management Plan.

Effect of Approval. Where Zero-Lot-Line Development has been approved for a Preliminary Subdivision under this Part, the Final Plat shall substantially conform to the Zero-Lot-Line approval.

Modification of Standards. When, in the judgment of the Municipal Planning Board, reasonable development of a building site justifies such action, the front and rear yards may be reduced up to a maximum of 40 percent. No other variances shall be considered by the Board of Zoning Adjustment.
