MAXIMUM DENSITY AND NET SITE AREA
Kansas City Zoning and Development Code § 88-410-04
in effect88-410-04 - MAXIMUM DENSITY AND NET SITE AREA
88-410-04-A. The maximum number of dwelling units allowed within an open space developments or conservation development is computed by dividing the net area of the site by the applicable minimum-lot-area-per unit standard 88-110-0605-B (Table 110-2). Net site area is to be calculated by subtracting all of the following from the site's gross land area:
1. the streamside zone of required stream buffers (see 88-415-03-A);
2. the middle zone of required stream buffers (see 88-415-03-B); and
3. water bodies with a contiguous area of more than 5,000 square feet.
88-410-04-B. If the open space developments or conservation development site (subdivision) is located in more than one zoning district, the maximum number of dwelling units allowed must be determined separately for each portion of the site lying within a different zoning district. Density may be transferred from one portion of the site to another, provided that such transfers do not result in an increase in the number of dwelling units allowed on the overall site.
