When a view corridor is required, it shall be provided according to the development standards set forth in Section 23.60A.170 using the following measurement techniques: A. The width of the view corridor or corridors shall be determined by calculating the required percent of the width of the lot at the street or upland lot line; B. The view corridor or corridors shall be in the direction of the predominant view of the water and, when topographically possible, generally parallel to existing view corridors; C. When a lot is bounded by more than one street, the Director shall determine which street front shall be used for the view corridor calculation; the determination shall be based on consideration of the relative amounts of traffic on each of the streets, the direction of the predominant view of the water and the availability of actual views of the water. (Ord. 124105 , § 3, 2013.)
