area used for loading terminais, <br /> docks and berths is completely <br /> enclosed within the same single <br /> building, a lot coverage of not more <br /> than sixty (60) percent will be <br /> permitted. <br /> In no case shall impervious surfaces <br /> exceed a maximum of eighty five <br /> (85) percent on any individual <br /> 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 district <br /> 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 walls <br /> 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 not <br /> 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 in <br /> 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 the <br /> use of different textures, complementary colors, shadow lines and contrasting <br /> shapes. The use of walls in a single color, with little detailing or completely <br /> blank is discouraged. <br /> 6 <br />
