Lot coverage:Sec. 78-1403. -Lot coverage and massing standards <br /> -On lots equal to or greater than 10,000 square feet in area,the total combined footprints of all <br /> principal and accessory structures shall not exceed 15 percent of the gross lot area. <br /> *(15%of 13,941 =2091 sq.ft. Maximum lot coveraqeJ <br /> - Calculation of massing. The following shall be included in the calculation of the total <br /> combined footprints by structures: <br /> (1) All roofed structures more than six feet above existing ground level. <br /> (2)Tennis courts, patios, decks, and all similar open structures when partially or fully <br /> enclosed by fences, railings or walls which extend more than six feet above existing <br /> ground level (if any portion of such structures extends more than six feet above grade <br /> level, the entire structure shall count toward lot coverage). <br /> LOT COVERAGE AND HARDCOVER CALCULATIONS: <br /> Lot Coverage: <br /> Home footprint: 1106.0 sq. ft. <br /> Home Porch 100.4 sq.ft. (has roof more than 6 ft. above grade) <br /> Home Fireplace Bay 28.3 sq.ft. (has roof more than 6 ft. above grade) <br /> Garage footprint: 579.0 sq.ft <br /> Total coverage (Existing) 1813.7 sq.ft. <br /> Maximum allowed: 2091.0 sq.ft. <br /> Maximum size of addition: 277.3 sq.ft. - Proposed addition =271.1 sq. <br /> ft. (This area total does not include area of new deck extension at new porch (which counts as <br /> hardcover, but not lot coverage because the extension does not have a roof over itJ, and this area does <br /> not replicate the area of the "Home Porch"which is encompassed by the new addition) <br /> Note:These calculations use figures which are counted differently than what is shown on the survey. <br /> These differences are noted below: <br /> - The existing front porch on the home was counted as part of the footprint of the existing home, <br /> and that total area was deducted from the area of the new addition.The area is counted in both <br /> sets of figures, it is just on the survey,this is not counted as part of the existing home, but <br /> instead counted as part of the addition. <br /> - The existing, cantilevered fireplace is itemized separately above, but counted as part of the lot <br /> coverage. <br /> - The portion of the new front porch covered by a roof is counted towards the lot coverage. <br /> - All areas of existing structures were taken from the survey. <br />
