LDC §14-4-6.A.9 restricts impervious surface in front and side yards to 40% maximum for pavers, concrete, turf blocks, gravel, asphalt, or brick pavers used for parking. Maximum lot coverage by structures is set by zoning district in Tables 4-3 and 4-5.
§14-4-6.A.9 is the impervious-coverage rule for front and side yards specifically targeted at vehicle parking surfaces — 40% maximum. Total lot coverage by structures depends on zoning district. §14-4-6.A.5 sets Floor Area Ratio (FAR) for mixed-use, with vertical (stacked) configurations distinguished from horizontal. §14-4-6.A.6 references §14-10-10 for open space requirements (typically 20-30% for residential subdivisions). Lot coverage affects stormwater calculations under §14-9-1 — adding impervious surface in flood zones may trigger BFE-plus-freeboard requirements for replacement structures.
Zoning violation: Sec. 1-22(b)(12) — $250. Stormwater impacts may also trigger separate Sec. 22-85 illegal-discharge enforcement up to $1,000/day.
