53) Lot/Corner – A lot which has at least two adjacent sides abutting for their full lengths on a street,
provided that the interior angle at the intersection of such Two (2) sides is less than One Hundred
Thirty-Five Degrees (135°).
54) Lot Depth – The mean horizontal distance between the front and rear lot lines. Thoroughfare
easements shall not be used to calculate lot depth.
55) Lot/Double Frontage – A lot having a frontage on Two (2) non-intersecting streets, as distinguished
from a Corner Lot.
56) Lot/Frontage – That dimension of a lot or portion of a lot abutting on a street, excluding the side
dimension of a corner lot.
57) Lot/Interior – A lot other than a corner lot.
58) Lot Line – The line or lines bounding a lot.
59) Lot Line/Front – The narrower side of the lot abutting a street. Where Two (2) lot lines abutting
streets are of equal length, either may be designated as the lot frontage at the owner’s discretion.
For a lot which has a boundary line which does not abut the front street line, is not a rear lot line
and lies along the same general directional orientation as the front and rear lot lines, said line shall
be considered a front lot line in establishing minimum setback lines.
60) Lot Line/Rear – The lot line farthest from and most parallel to the front lot line. For triangular lots,
the point opposite the front lot line shall be considered the rear lot line and have a value of zero.
61) Lot Line/Side – Any lot line not the front or rear lot line.
62) Lot Width – The horizontal distance between side lot lines parallel to the front lot line, and
measured from the point on the building line that is closest to the front lot line.
63) Lumens – Units used to express the light output of a lamp or fixture. “Initial lumens” refer to the
amount of light emitted by a lamp, measured at the beginning of its life.
64) Luminaire – A fixture including bulb(s), tube(s), housing, reflective shield, lens or ballast.
65) Mixed-Use – The development of a tract of land (which may include one or more lots), building(s)
or structure(s) combining Residential and Non-Residential uses within a single development,
building or structure. Mixed-use developments, buildings or structures may consist of Two (2) or
more uses such as residential, office, retail, restaurant, civic, or other uses.
66) Motor Court/Commercial – An uncovered outdoor space wholly or partially surrounded by buildings
or walls intended as a courtyard for vehicles as they approach a building. Surface parking is permitted
within the space provided that it does not exceed Seventy Five (75) spaces. Surface treatments of
the vehicular zones are richer in character than traditional concrete surface parking lots, using a
variety of textures and colors such as brick and concrete pavers. Individual motor courts shall be
separated by intervening building.
67) Motor Court/Residential – An uncovered outdoor space that is wholly or partially surrounded by
a Residential building or walls intended as a courtyard for vehicles as they approach the residence.
Surface parking is permitted within this space provided that it include no more than Four (4) spaces.
Surface treatments of the vehicular zones are richer in character than traditional concrete surface
parking lots, using a variety of textures and colors such as brick and concrete pavers. Individual
motor courts shall be separated by intervening building.
68) Natural Landscape Zone – A landscape zone composed of native and adapted plants that do not
require irrigation after establishment.
