1. Reserved.
2. These densities are allowed only through the application of mixed-use development standards and for stand-alone townhouse development in the NB zone on property designated commercial outside of center in the urban area.
3. These densities may only be achieved through the application of residential density incentives or transfer of development rights in mixed-use developments and for stand-alone townhouse development in the NB zone on property designated commercial outside of center in the urban area. See K.C.C. chapters 21A.34 and 21A.37.
4.a. in the F zone, scaling stations may be located thirty-five feet from property lines. Residences shall have a setback of at least thirty feet from all property lines.
b. for lots between one acre and two and one half acres in size, the setback requirements of the R-1 zone shall apply. For lots under one acre, the setback requirements of the R-4 zone shall apply.
c. for developments consisting of three or more single-detached dwellings located on a single parcel, the setback shall be ten feet along any property line abutting R-1 through R-8, RA and UR zones.
5. Gas station pump islands shall be placed no closer than twenty-five feet to street front lines.
6. This base height allowed only for mixed-use developments and for stand-alone townhouse development in the NB zone on property designated commercial outside of center in the urban area.

8. Required on property lines adjoining residential zones for industrial uses established by conditional use permits.
9. The floor-to-lot ratio for mixed use developments shall conform to K.C.C. chapter 21A.14.
10. Height limits may be increased if portions of the structure building that exceed the base height limit provide one additional foot of street and interior setback for each foot above the base height limit, provided the maximum height may exceed seventy-five feet only in mixed use developments. Netting or fencing and support structures for the netting or fencing used to contain golf balls in the operation of golf courses or golf driving ranges are exempt from the additional interior setback requirement provided that the maximum height shall not exceed seventy-five feet.
11. Applicable only to lots containing less than one acre of lot area. Development on lots containing less than fifteen thousand square feet of lot area shall be governed by impervious surface standards of the nearest comparable R-4 through R-8 zone.
