E. Accessory buildings located within required rear setback areas shall have a minimum <br /> interior side setback of five feet and corner side setback of ten feet unless the zone in <br /> which the lot is located requires a greater setback, and a minimum rear setback of five <br /> feet, unless abutting an alley, in which case there shall be no required rear setback. <br /> F. An accessory building, which is located in the rear setback area, may be attached to <br /> the principal dwelling; provided, that no portion of the dwelling is located within the rear <br /> or side setback areas, and that all other requirements of this title are met. <br /> G. Subdivision of the property shall not result in the accessory building(s) failing to <br /> comply with any of the requirements of this section. Compliance with this provision may <br /> require that accessory buildings be removed or reduced in size in order for the property to <br /> be subdivided. <br /> H. Detached accessory buildings shall not exceed fifteen feet in height, except as <br /> provided in subsection K of this section. <br /> I. All detached accessory buildings with a gross floor area larger than five hundred <br /> square feet shall have a roof pitch similar to the dwelling and have siding and roofing <br /> materials similar to or compatible with those used on the dwelling. No metal siding or <br /> roofing shall be permitted unless it catches the siding and roofing of the dwelling. Plans <br /> for the proposed accessory building(s) indicating siding and roofing materials shall be <br /> submitted with the application. <br /> J. The lot coverage for all structures, including the dwelling, shall not exceed thirty-five <br /> percent in the R-S or R-1 zones, or forty percent in the R-2 zone. For lots containing <br /> environmentally sensitive areas, only those portions of the lot meeting the definition of <br /> "buildable area"may be used to calculate the lot coverage requirements provided herein. <br /> K. The hearing examiner, using the review process described in EMC Title 15, Local <br /> Project Review Procedures, may allow detached accessory buildings to exceed fifteen <br /> feet in height, or to exceed one thousand square feet in area as provided herein. The <br /> hearing examiner shall have the authority to deny an application for accessory buildings <br /> which exceed fifteen feet in height or a total of one thousand square feet. The basis for <br /> denial is incompatibility with the dwelling and/or neighborhood character. To make this <br /> determination, the hearing examiner may look to such factors that include, but are not <br /> limited to, view obstruction, aesthetic impact on surrounding properties and streetscape, <br /> incompatible scale with dwellings on surrounding properties, and impact on <br /> neighborhood character. The hearing examiner shall also have the authority to impose <br /> greater setback requirements, landscape buffers, or other locational or design <br /> requirements as necessary to mitigate the impacts of accessory buildings which are larger <br /> or taller than otherwise allowed by this section. <br /> 1. On lots containing a minimum lot area of eighteen thousand square feet, the hearing <br /> examiner may allow the total square footage of all accessory buildings, including both <br /> attached and detached accessory structures, to exceed one thousand square feet, subject to <br /> all of the following requirements; and <br />
