, terminals, docks and berths is completely enclosed within <br /> the same single building, a lot coverage of not more than <br /> sixty (60)percent will be permitted. <br /> In no case shall impervious surfaces exceed a m�imum of <br /> eighty five (85)percent on any individual parcel. <br /> Section 78-826. Building Design and Construction. <br /> A. General Provisions. In addition to other restrictions of this chapter, the use, <br /> construction, alteration or enlargements to any buildings or structure within this <br /> district shall meet the following standards: <br /> (1) Rooftop Equipment: Rooftop equipment shall be screened from view from <br /> the ground at the property line with vertical extensions of the building <br /> walls or with parapets or other architectural design features of the same <br /> materials used on the walls of the building. Where the topography permits, <br /> it is desirable to screen such equipment from adjacent property, but it is <br /> not the intent of this requirement to increase the height of the screening <br /> significantly above that of the equipment in order to screen it from view <br /> from tall buildings or from higher ground. <br /> (2) Form, Scale and Proportion: The form and proportion of buildings shall be <br /> consistent or compatible with the scale, form and proportion of existing <br /> development in the immediate area. <br /> (3) Unusual Buildings: The use of unusual shapes, color and other <br /> characteristics that cause new buildings to call excessive attention to <br /> themselves and create disharmony shall be avoided. <br /> (4) Mass and Voids: The rhythm of structural mass to voids, such as windows <br /> and glass doors, of a front facade should relate to the rhythms established <br /> in adjacent buildings. <br /> (5) Long Facades: Where large structures with overly-long facades (walls) are <br /> proposed, such as warehouses, building mass should be articulated with <br /> variations in the building plane and parapet height and through the use of <br /> other unique design or site plan features. <br /> (6) Architectural Design: Architectural design should create harmony through <br /> the use of different textures, complementary colors, shadow lines and <br /> contrasting shapes. The use of walls in a single color, with little detailing <br /> or completely blank is discouraged. <br /> 9 <br />
