Purpose. The purpose of the additional regulations for sloping lots is that: <br /> 1 . Trees and natural features, well-designed homes and variety of architectural styles are key <br /> components of quality hillside areas; <br /> 2. Safety of homes, both structurally and from fire danger, is of particular concern in the hillside <br /> areas; <br /> 3. Ensuring that homes are integrated with hillside slopes and scaled to the size of the property <br /> contributes towards overall compatibility; and <br /> 4. Allowing reasonably-sized homes and additions can further the goals of neighborhood quality <br /> and accommodate diverse family and multi-generational needs. <br /> B. Definition of Sloping Lots. For the purposes of this section, "sloping lots" is any lot in the R- 1 <br /> or RH Zoning District that has an average slope of 15 percent or more. <br /> C. Underfloors. Exterior building surfaces between the lowest floor and finished grade shall be <br /> comprised or fire-retardant materials to prevent exposure to wildfire hazard. The building official <br /> shall determine compliance with this standard. <br /> D. Parking Front Setback Adjustment. In order to reduce grading, required parking (including a <br /> private garage) may be located, at the discretion of the Director, as close as 5 feet to the street <br /> property line; provided that portions of the dwelling and accessory structures other than the <br /> garage shall comply with the setback requirements of the base zoning district. Driveway aprons <br /> of 10 to 18 feet are prohibited as they would allow a car to protrude into the sidewalk or street. <br /> E. Review Process. <br /> 1 .
