To protect less intensive zones and uses from impacts that could result from excessive mass and 10 <br />vertfcal scale of larger buildings. This objectfve can be accomplished by applying the standards in this 11 <br />chapter in conjunctfon with the building placement and height regulatfons in Chapters 19.06 and 19.22 12 <br />EMC; and 13 <br />C.
