KEY POINT SUMMARY. BUILDING HEIGHT
(Page 21, Figure 13)
The maximum allowable height of any primary buildings shall not exceed twenty-six (26) feet. The total vertical distance from lowest point of disturbance to the highest point on any structure shall not exceed thirty-six (36) feet. SLOPE / AREA OF DISTURBANCE
(Page 22, Figure 14, 14.1)
If less than 25%* of the parcel is deemed as ‘areas of steep slope’ according to the slope analysis map, then all areas of the parcel that have a slope equal to or greater than 15% can be exempt from total average slope calculation of that parcel. (Page 24, Figure 16, 16.1) On parcels where ‘areas of very steep slope’ (equal to or greater than 15%) including a ten feet radius surrounding the steep slopes are present, proposed structures or buildings on those slopes will count as double the squarefootage towards the total area of disturbance. (Page 27, Figure 21) A project that is negotiating the allowed area of disturbance, may consider a conservation easement protecting a minimum of 60%* of the sensitive lands in exchange for an increased allowable area of disturbance. This easement must cover a continuous area including the highest and steepest points on the parcel as indicated by the inventory slope analysis. The easement shall be held by the City of Ivins. DEFINITION OF A HILLSIDE
(Page 23, Figure 15)
All areas where the increase or decrease in the elevation of the natural grade is equal to or greater than ten percent (10%) (1 foot of elevation change for every 10 feet of horizontal run) for a minimum of forty (40) feet. CUT AND FILL
(Page 25, Figure 17)
All cut areas shall not exceed six (6) vertical feet*, measured from the naturally occuring grade. GROSS AREA
(Page 26, Figure 20, 20.1)
The gross area of each individual building or structure cannot exceed 12,000* sqft per acre.
SKYLINE PROTECTION
(Page 28, 29, Figure 23)
No part of a proposed structure on a sensitive lands building site shall break the skyline when viewed from fifty (50) feet from the center line of main arterial lanes. (Highway 91, Snow Canyon Parkwary, E Center St, 400 E, etc) *measurements/percentages are flexible and can be changed according to Ivins’
