S4 The NC district is a new diburict that coruol'idates the existing C I A,and P3P disvicts.None of the current distHcts include a minimum lot size standard,minimum lot width,or maximum lot coverage. We have suggested new standards for lots in the NC di ct based on die MR-5 and OI di sviar. We have suggested an approach mat allows 3-story nonresidernial ark mbced-use developments and 3 story residential uses(additional design standards will also apply drat relate to contexasl heW*s,roof forms,and"step backs"'towards shorter savcnires). The setbacks have been established to limit the creation of nonconformities.
