2. The 0’ front yard setback is a minimum. However, regardless of the setback used, no parking or vehicle access lane is permitted between the required perimeter sidewalk and the main pedestrian entrance to the building. Additionally, all of the requirements of LMC 16.25.090(O) shall be satisfied if the setback used is less than 15’.

3. Minimum setbacks are subject to required landscape development (see LMC 16.25.100). See LMC 16.25.060(A) for additional height setbacks. Where 0 lot line front yard setbacks are utilized, required landscaping shall be provided in a planter strip area between the street and sidewalk.)

4. Hotels and motels shall be considered as residential structures.

5. A 0’ front yard setback is optional if a proposal meets all of the requirements of LMC 16.25.090(O). Parking and vehicle access lane is required to be located to the side or behind structures when 0’ front yard setback is applied.
