TO: The Honorable City Council
FROM: Patrick J. Richards , Dir
ector of Community Development
DATE: October 27, 1988 (CC meeting of 11/2/88)
SUBJECT: LOT COVERAGE VS. LOT SIZE
BACKGROUND
Presently the city`s only restriction in lot coverage in the residential
zones is the required setbacks. In multifamily zones the off-street
parking requirement can also affect the lot coverage of building area.
Only in the industrial zones is the lot coverage limited. Forty (40%)
percent is the desired coverage and is only by policy. It is not strickly
adhered to.
The only other requirement that is utilized in the city is in regulating
accessory structures. A 40% limit of the rear yard is imposed for accessory
structures .
It is believed that in the west side of the City of Los Angeles and
the City of Beverly Hills the need to limit the amount of lot coverage
on an individual residence is being considered. This is due to extremely
large homes being built to maximum height and setbacks. As of this
writing no information has been obtained from those cities. Staff will
attempt to collect whatever is available and update the Council at the
November 2nd meeting.
Recommended Action
Take action as deemed appropriate.
