Color elevations are needed that indicate building materials and colors that are proposed for all of the units. Some information on the proposed units has been submitted, including brick coverage calculations, which indicate the non-glazed area of the front wall will have 26.3% brick. The minimum/maximum building height in this district is 2-4 stories. All of the dwelling units are 2 stories and comply with the height requirements. 20. Townhouse Size: City Code requires townhouse units to be a certain size based on the number of bedrooms the unit will have: 1 bedroom 700 square feet 2 bedroom 800 square feet 3 bedroom 960 square feet All of the proposed units significantly exceed City Code requirements. 21. Off-Street Parking Requirements: The TC-4 District requires 2 off-street Parking spaces for each unit; this requirement is exceeded with the 2-car garages and 20 foot wide driveways. Some parking is allowed on public streets, however, this may not be adequate for overflow parking. There is no additional off-street parking provided within the plat. 22. Driveway Length/Width: Under the TC-4a Zoning Code, driveways for the row townhomes must be at least 20 feet in length. All of the proposed units meet this req3firement.
