ARTICLE III DISTRICTS AND SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS PERTAINING TO EACH DISTRICT “ARO-M” - ADAPTIVE REUSE OVERLAY - MEMORIAL DISTRICT SECTION 1 – PURPOSE The “ARO-M” District is designed to allow for the productive reuse of a property in the City’s residential areas where neighborhoods are transitioning from single family homes to investment properties and other types of uses. The District designation will assist in maintaining the residential character of the area and preventing excessive commercialization of the area. An additional purpose is to prevent the loss of distinctive structures in these neighborhoods which may otherwise be demolished and replaced with modern buildings. The “ARO-M” District uses are listed in the Schedule of Permitted Uses. “ARO-M” District activities should preserve the residential character of the neighborhood. Building uses in the “ARO-M” District should not be discernable from the exterior of the building with the exception of approved signs. No land shall be used and no building or structure shall be erected for or converted to any use other than those listed in the Schedule of Permitted Uses for this district. Any existing parking or lack of same for any conforming structure in the “ARO-M” District shall be considered a conforming parking arrangement. A. “ARO-M” District businesses shall limit hours of operation to six (6) in the morning until seven (7) in the evening. No outdoor storage or display of any type shall be permitted. Sale of vehicles, boats or other large products requiring outdoor display of merchandise are prohibited. B. Additions to the originally approved site plan which involve a 20% or greater enlargement of approved building footprint or proposed demolition of a structure or portion thereof shall require review of the Planning and Zoning Commission and approval of City Council in order to operate a non-residential use under the “ARO-M” District requirements. C. Removal of any tree over 12” in diameter within the “ARO-M” District requires the review and approval of the City Tree Board. SECTION 2 – DENSITY REGULATIONS A. Lot Size The minimum lot size within the district shall be 7,000 square feet, with each lot having no less than thirty-five feet (35’) of linear frontage along a public street. ARTICLE III 25
ARTICLE III DISTRICTS AND SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS PERTAINING TO EACH DISTRICT Where lots have multiple street frontages, the minimum street frontage requirement shall apply only to one street. B. Building Site Coverage The gross ground floor area of all building structures shall not exceed sixty percent (60%) of the site area, including a maximum of thirty percent (30%) for accessory buildings and structures. C. An existing lot is considered adequate for minimum lot size in the “ARO-M” District provided documentation of the existence of the lot prior to 1956 in its current configuration can be provided to the City. SECTION 3 – BUILDING SETBACKS Setbacks shall be established on the site plan. Minimum setback distances from the right-of-way line of public streets and adjacent lot lines are as follows: A. Public Street Right-of-Way (ROW) Above ground building structures shall be a minimum of twenty (20) feet from all public street rights-of-way lines. B. Rear Lot Lines Above ground building structures shall be a minimum of ten (10) feet from a rear lot line not fronting on a public street right-of-way. C. Side Lot Lines Above ground building structures shall be a minimum of ten (10) feet from a side lot line not fronting on a public street right-of-way. D. Underground Setback No underground building structure shall be located closer than ten (10) feet from any lot line. E.
