Development Standards—Density and Dimensions | Town Center
(7) Density applies only to dwelling units and not to sleeping units. (8) Allocated density is the density allowed by right, before any additional units are added per SDC 21.07.050D. See Figure 21.07.050a for clarification on the density allocation for all Town Center zones. (9) For TC-A zones, the 16 du/acre minimum density applies to the average net density for the entire sub-zone (or development site if it does not cover the whole sub- zone). Minimum densities for individual properties will be determined during the unified zone development process. (10) A maximum of 600,000 square feet of commercial floor area are available within the Town Center, allocated during the unified zone development process, with base allocations divided as follows:
(11) Additional commercial floor area may be available from the commercial development capacity bonus pool per SDC 21.07.050D. (12) Commercial floor area may be permitted in the TC-B zone provided the site is developed as part of a unified zone development plan with an adjacent TC-A zone, as agreed upon in the UZDP (subject to the size and type of development). See SDC 21.07.120B.2.c. for details. (13) Minimum lot width and minimum side yard setbacks internal to developments may be modified for zero lot line configurations (see SDC 21.07.060D.1.d.) and townhouse developments. (14) See SDC 21.07.060A.3. for greater specificity, exceptions, and departures to minimum street setbacks. (15) See SDC 21.07.060A.9. for open space and landscaped area requirements. (16) Minimum setbacks for private garages or carports shall be 20 feet. This setback allows sufficient space to park most vehicles in the driveway without blocking movement along the sidewalk. (17) The minimum street setback may be reduced to zero if the site is part of a unified zone development plan. (18) See also SDC 21.07.060 for greater specificity, exceptions, and departures for side and rear yard setbacks. For townhouse and multifamily development, the minimum side and back yard setback shall be 20 feet along any property line abutting R-1 through R-8 zones and TC-C
