S3 The OI district is new and consolidates the provisions from the PI,P2,and P4 districts in the current ordinance. There are a number of changes between the current and proposed districts. Neither the PI,P2,nor the P4 districts include a lot area,lot width,or density standard(relying,in part, on adjacent districts for residential standards).The OI district establishes different lot saes and density standards based upon use type. The new OI district increases the lot coverage figures from the argent threshold of 35%and proposes a new height limit that will allow 3-and 4-story buildings. The existing setbacks for the P 1,P2,and P4 districts are generally carried forward by the new OI district June 2009 City of Fayetteville,North Carolina Page 3-21 Unified Development Ordinance—Module Two Public Review Draft(REVISED)
