Feb -15 -99 05:46P Town of Carrboro 919 968 7737 P.09 dwelling unit or that is limited by restrictive covenants to development only with a single dwelling unit shall be deemed to house one single- family detached dwelling unit. Lots that are large enough to accommodate more than one dwelling unit and are not so limited by restrictive covenants shall be deemed to house the largest number of duplex or multifamily units that could be approved under this chapter. The minimum number of size - limited units shall then be determined by multiplying the maximum number of dwelling units permissible within the subdivision as determined herein by 0.20 (resulting fractions shall be dropped). (c�) The developer's plans submitted with the application for a special or conditional use permit shall indicate which lots the developer proposes to develop with a size - limited unit. The subdivision final plat shall indicate clearly each lot on which a size- limited unit must be constructed, and, subject to the provisions of subsection (e), purchasers of such lots shall be bound by the limitation. (e) No zoning or building permit may be issued for the construction of any dwelling unit on any lot that has been designated as a lot on which a size - limited unit must be constructed unless the dwelling conforms to the limitations of this section. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this section shall not prevent the purchaser of any size- limited unit, or any successor to such purchaser, from enlarging the dwelling unit at any time following one year after the issuance of the initial certificate of occupancy for the unit. (f) This section shall not apply to any subdivision where each of the lots so created contains on the date the final plat is approved a dwelling unit for which a certificate of occupancy had been issued at least three years prior to the date of final plat approval. Nor shall this section apply to modifications of previously approved subdivisions. (g) Size - limited units may not be located apart from the remainder of the subdivision in any manner designed to isolate such units or discourage the residents of such units from full participation in the enjoyment of all facilities and common properties available to other residents of the subdivision. Section 2. All provisions of any town ordinance in conflict with this ordinance are repealed. Section 3. This ordinance shall become effective upon adoption, except that its provisions shall not apply to any subdivision with respect to which a completed application was accepted, and the fees paid, prior to the date of adoption.
