§ 17.06.700. Site coverage.

Latest version.

A.

Purpose. Site coverage regulations are intended to ensure that building coverage and impervious surface coverage of each site is compatible with the nature of uses allowable in each zone, and with environmental objectives of the general plan, and to avoid overcrowding of sites with buildings and impermeable surface materials.

B.

Building Coverage. Building coverage of a site shall be deemed the total area of all buildings and roofed or covered space on the site, expressed as a percent of total site area. Eaves and roof overhangs of a building shall be counted as building coverage.

C.

Impervious Coverage. Impervious coverage shall include all areas defined as building coverage, plus all paved surfaces and other site improvements contributing to surface runoff greater than would occur on the site in its natural state.
