Perfectly

The physical setting for any building whereby the level or intensity of development covering such property is regulated by development controls.

LOT

DEVELOPMENT | POTENTIAL OF LOT

Optimized extent of physical development w/o causing undue damage, effects or hardship;

CARRYING CAPACITY OF | LOT

New physical development within a lot that is open for development, vacant, unutilized, development-committed or other lots that are similarly situated

NEW DEVELOPMENT

``` Physical development consisting mainly of renovation, rehabilitation, retrofit, upgrading, expansion within a lot or property that is under-utilized or unfit for habitation ```

REDEVELOPMENT

Generally measured from established grade line to | the topmost portion of the structure.

BUILDING HEIGHT LIMIT

Lowest point of elevation of finished ground surface between exterior wall and a point 1.5m from said wall

GRADE

Perpendicular distance or vertical measurement between the uppermost surfaces (finish level) of two successive floors.

FLOOR-TO-FLOOR HEIGHT

Portion of structure between the uppermost surface (finish level) of any floor and the uppermost surface (finish level) of the next floor above or below it.

STOREY

CLASSIFICATION OF BUILDING HEIGHT | LOW-RISE

1-5 storeys 3-15 meters

MEDIUM-RISE

-6-15 storeys 18-45 meters

HIGH-RISE

-16 + storeys 48 + meters

Measured horizontally from the property line to the outermost faces of the exterior walls of the building/structure

BUILDING FOOTPRINT

Any structurally attached portion of a building that is outside its outermost walls

PROJECTIONS

DEVELOPMENT CONTROLS

``` Meaning? (AMBF) (MACA) (AMVB) (FLAR/ FAR) (PSO) (ISA) (USA) (TOSL) ```

ALLOWABLE MAXIMUM BUILDING FOOTPRINT (AMBF) MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE CONSTRUCTION AREA (MACA) ALLOWABLE MAXIMUM VOLUME OF BUILDING (AMVB) FLOOR TO LOT AREA OR FLOOR AREA RATIO (FLAR/ FAR) PERCENTAGE OF SITE OCCUPANCY (PSO) IMPERVIOUS SURFACE AREA (ISA) UNPAVED SURFACE AREA (USA) TOTAL OPEN SPACE WITHIN LOT (TOSL)

MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE CONSTRUCTION AREA (MACA) = PSO + ISA ; excludes USA

Formula? | FLOOR TO LOT AREA OR FLOOR AREA RATIO (FLAR/ FAR)

FLOOR TO LOT AREA OR FLOOR AREA RATIO (FLAR/ FAR) = total floor area / total lot area

Formula? | TOTAL OPEN SPACE WITHIN LOT (TOSL)

TOTAL OPEN SPACE WITHIN LOT (TOSL) | = ( ISA + USA ) / TLA
