SP-2 was originally intended to achieve a specific urban form. <br />Existing nearby multi -family residential developments to the <br />project site do not maintain a minimum building floor height. <br />Therefore, the proposed design is consistent with the existing <br />multi -family residences. <br />Frontyard/Porch Frontage — Depth <br />The minimum dimension for porch type building frontages is <br />6' depth. None of the porches provide the minimum entry <br />depth required for porches. <br />Modifying the porch depth presents significant challenges due <br />to the development's location in a flood zone. Such changes <br />would necessitate building reconfiguration to accommodate <br />proper stair risers and treads from street level, which would <br />be complex given the elevated floor requirements in flood - <br />prone areas. This reconfiguration would cascade into the unit <br />layouts, disrupting the efficient stacked floor plan design and <br />potentially reducing habitable interior space and bedroom <br />counts. <br />Frontyard/Porch Frontage — Width <br />The minimum dimension for porch type building frontages 10' <br />width if an asymmetrical entry. None of the porches provide <br />the minimum entry width required for porches. <br />Modifying the porch width presents significant challenges due <br />to the development's location in a flood zone. Such changes <br />would necessitate building reconfiguration to accommodate <br />proper stair risers and treads from street level, which would <br />be complex given the elevated floor requirements in flood - <br />prone areas. This reconfiguration would cascade into the unit <br />layouts, disrupting the efficient stacked floor plan design and <br />potentially reducing habitable interior space and bedroom <br />counts. <br />Common Open Space — Area <br />Pursuant to SP-2, the minimum common open space for the <br />project site (net) is equal to 15 percent of the lot, or <br />approximately 12,290 sq. ft. As proposed, the project provides <br />a 3,853 sq. ft. of common open space (approximately 5 <br />percent). <br />The minimum common open space requirement specified in <br />SP-2 is designed to offer visual relief and strengthen the <br />Resolution No. 2024-xx <br />Page 4 of 11 <br />
