§ 18.20.060. Overpressure area.


Latest version.
  • Subdivisions within the 0.2 and 0.3 PSI overpressure areas as defined in Section 15.14.010 and shown on the special development standards areas map shall be designed, to the extent possible, to orient the side yards of the lots toward the center of the overpressure areas. This lot orientation (in conjunction with the manner in which the structure is placed on the lot, the design of the structure, and the type, location, and size of glass surfaces in the structure) is intended to reduce the possibility of damage within the overpressure area in the event of an accidental explosion. New subdivisions shall not be approved in the 0.5 PSI overpressure area. The special development standards areas map is available in the planning and development services division office during regular office hours.
