Lot coverage for zoning lots containing community facility and residential uses

Where different maximum percentages of lot coverage apply to residential and community facility uses, the higher lot coverage shall be applied to any level containing both such uses.

Furthermore, the maximum percent of lot coverage for community facility uses located below the level of residential uses need not be lower than the maximum percent of lot coverage permitted for such residential uses.

In addition, where a portion of a building is permitted as an obstruction in a required rear yard or rear yard equivalent pursuant to Section 24-33, for the purposes of applying the provisions of Section 24-12, portions of community facility buildings in existence on December 15, 1961, that exceed the maximum heights for such permitted obstructions, may be excluded from the maximum lot coverage.
