§ 29-03-310. Yards—District C-3.

The rear yard and side yard regulations for dwellings within this district are the same as in the single-family district. In the case of business buildings, the yard requirements shall not apply except:

(a)

On the side of a lot adjoining a dwelling district; in which case, there shall be a side yard of not less than five (5) feet; and

(b)

On any street sides of a corner lot, there shall be a setback of not less than five (5) feet in width; and

(c)

On the boundary of a lot adjoining an alley, there shall be a yard setback of not less than eight (8) feet if electric lines exist on the side of the alley abutting the property. No application for variance from the requirement set forth in this subsection (c) shall be accepted or considered without written concurrence of every public utility company providing electrical service within the corporate limits of the city.

(d)

If electric lines do not exist on either side of the alley abutting the property, written concurrence on the proposed plans shall be required from every public utility company providing electrical service within the corporate limits of the city prior to the issuance of any building permit by the city.

Except as otherwise specified, there are no other yard regulations for business buildings. However, no building shall be built on White Sands Boulevard within ten (10) feet of the front lot line. The city manager shall not issue a permit for the construction of any permanent structure within the ten-foot setback.
