A. Height limits in International District Residential (IDR) zones are designated on the Official Land Use Map, Chapter 23.32 . B. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 23.49.236 , the applicable height limits in an IDR zone are determined as set forth in this subsection 23.49.236.B: 1. Where there are multiple height limits listed, the applicable height limit for structures containing only nonresidential and live-work uses is the first figure after the "IDR" designation, and is the height limit for all portions of a structure that contain those uses. The base height limit for portions of a structure that contain residential use, shown as the first figure following the "/", is the applicable residential height limit for portions of a structure that contain residential uses if the structure does not qualify for extra floor area under Section 23.49.023 . The third figure shown, if any, is the applicable height limit for portions of a structure that contain residential uses if the structure qualifies for extra residential floor area under Section 23.49.023 . 2. Where only one height limit is listed, the limit applies to all uses. C. Rooftop features and certain additions to structures are allowed to exceed the applicable height limit according to subsection 23.66.332.B. (Ord. 123589, § 47, 2011; Ord. 112303 § 3(part), 1985.)
