Am trying to understand how Cape Canaveral Measures Height
There is a general height restriction of 45 feet in most areas.
Section 110-471 provides exceptions to the measurement of height for
non-habitable structures on top of the buildings.
Are there other sections that also provide for relief from the 45 foot
height measurement?
Such as:
is it measured to the top of the finished floor, or to the average
height of the roof structure (I recall dealing with this when we built
the residence inn but cannot find the sections)
is there exception to height measurement if one puts parking underneath
the building as the County permits to achieve buildings like the one in
the attached photo?
where is height measured from. Is it from the average grade of the
site?
Are there requirements to raise the grade above the adjacent road and
above the base flood elevation?
