1. Cornices, canopies, eaves, or other similar architectural features not providing additional floor space within the building may extend into a required front, side, or rear yard no more than three feet.

2. Open, unenclosed, covered porches, platforms or landing places or other structures which are open on two or more sides which do not extend above the level of the first floor of the building may extend into any front or rear yard not more than six feet (see Tables 2-4 and 2-5). No variance may be granted for enclosure of these porches, platforms or landings.

3. Notwithstanding any of the minimum front yard setbacks required in all of the residential districts, the front yard minimum setback specified in these districts may be reduced where lots comprising forty percent or more of the frontage on one side of a street, between intersecting streets, are developed with buildings having an average front yard with a variation of not more than ten feet, and that average front setback is less than the minimum front setback specified for the district. In such cases, no building newly erected or structurally altered may project beyond the average front yard line established by the existing buildings.

4. Carport and garage structures with alley access may extend into the rear yard setback up to ten feet, providing there is a minimum vehicular back-out distance of twenty-five feet from the carport or garage entrance. (Ord. 706 §3 (Exh. A), 2019).
