Full Breakdown
Because Oregon zones the city by district rather than under one blanket dimensional table, the yard setback that applies to a lot depends on which district it sits in. 11. 04(c) sets a 25-foot minimum rear setback; both increase, as printed, to a 60-foot setback where the Advanced Manufacturing District lot is adjacent to a property zoned for single-family use. 06 requires an 82-foot minimum setback from the curb for any site fronting Dustin Road or Isaac Streets Drive, and bars parking within the first five feet of the property line next to the right-of-way, while otherwise allowing parking within the setback under site plan review. A property owner should confirm which zoning district a lot carries before relying on either figure.
Violations & Fines
Building closer to a property line than the applicable Section 1145.04 or Section 1138.06 setback is a Zoning Ordinance violation. Section 1105.99 treats it as a misdemeanor punishable by up to $100 plus court costs, with each day the violation continues after the owner receives notice counted as a new, separately punishable offense against the owner, builder or contractor responsible.
