No. 2018-171]
The O-LH Overlay Limited-Height District protects City neighborhoods that are within or adjacent to the C-1 Neighborhood Center District that would be adversely impacted by taller buildings. It establishes a three-story limit on building heights for those C-1 District or adjoining areas where there is the presence or proximity of features that would be adversely affected by the aesthetic, traffic, parking demands, and other adverse impacts associated with taller buildings. Such features may include but are not limited to uses in the R-1 Low-Density Residential and R-2 Medium-Density Residential zoned districts, an O-S Open Space District, a Preservation District, a City-designated landmark, a property or structure listed on the State or National Register of Historic Places, a park, a critical environmental area as defined in § 48-4 of the Municipal Code, or a residential area challenged by a persistent shortage of on- and off-street parking spaces. The O-LH District shall not be independently mapped on the City of Rochester Zoning Map but shall be overlaid upon an existing C-1 or R-3 District area that is found to be appropriate for such treatment.
The uses and structures permitted in the O-LH District shall
be the permitted uses allowed in the underlying district.
The uses and structures allowed as special permit uses in the
O-LH District shall be the special permit uses allowed in the underlying
district.
The lot, area and yard requirements of the O-LH District shall
conform to the underlying district.
Personal wireless telecommunication facilities in the O-LH District shall be regulated as outlined in § 120-143, Personal wireless telecommunication facilities.
