AGENDA
29.10. Impervious land area requirements.
To effectively provide for the drainage of storm water, the area of land covered by
buildings, structures and impervious surfaces shall not exceed seventy (70) percent for
industrial uses, seventy (70) percent for commercial uses and sixty (60) percent for
residential uses. For the purpose of this requirement, all other uses such as, but not
limited to, utilities, transportation and office parks, shall be included in the commercial
use category. In mixed -use developments, the most restrictive of the applicable
impervious area limitations shall be utilized. For purposes of this ordinance,
"impervious" shall mean and refer to any area or part of any parcel of land that has
been modified to reduce the natural ability of land to absorb and hold rainfall. Any
placement of any nonorganic material which prohibits penetration by liquids or other
soluble materials results in the creation of an impervious area. For purposes of this
ordinance, "pervious" shall mean the opposite of "impervious" as defined and described
above in this ordinance.
(1) Subject to compliance with all other city ordinances, pervious areas may be used
to satisfy requirements for landscaping and setbacks, buffer strips, drain fields, passive
recreation areas and any other purpose that does not require covering with a material
that prevents infiltration of water into the ground.
Rim
(3) (2) In those cases in which city ordinances may allow some required parking
stalls to be grassed, no credit towards the computation of pervious area shall be
granted for such areas.
(4) (3) Upon demonstration by an applicant that special conditions peculiar to the
location or physical characteristics of a particular site are present, or special conditions
resulting from the design of existing facilities or surrounding land uses are present, the
city commission may permit variation from the impervious area standards, subject to the
following limitations:
j :e
a. Variation from the impervious requirements shall be proportional to mitigating
design improvements provided in excess of the minimum required engineering and
landscaping standards. If a variation is granted, the impervious area shall not exceed
eighty-five (85) percent for industrial uses, eighty (80) percent for commercial uses and
seventy (70) percent for residential uses.
b. Mitigating design improvements may include the use of grassed retention basins
and swales to aid in the filtration of storm water runoff or any combination of the
foregoing.
C. Pervious paving blocks may be used in overflow parking areas, park and
recreation parking facilities and residential areas. _I_n_all cases _in_which pervious paving
blocks are used at locations where pedestrian traffic is prevalent, the block voids shall
be planted with a nonrunner specie of grass such as, but not limited to, zoysia or
bermuda grass. Pervious paving blocks may not be used within principal or major
driveways, loading zones, or actively used parking stalls in commercial or industrial
developments.
