1503.1In the DC Overlay District, the matter-of-right building height, penthouse height, and floor area ratio limits shall serve as the maximum permitted building height, penthouse height, and floor area ratio for a planned unit development.

 

1503.2In the DC Overlay District, the minimum area included within the proposed development shall be one (1) acre in any Residence, Special Purpose, and Mixed Use District, and one-half (1/2) acre in any other zone district.
