Sec. 42-499. — Purpose of article.#
The purpose of this article shall be to establish varying setback lines on specific streets which do not necessarily conform to the regular setback lines as established in each of the zoning districts. These streets, for the most part, are those streets designated in a study conducted by the Virginia Department of Transportation and adopted by the town council as thoroughfares and as such are scheduled to be widened and reconstructed to varying widths. The setback lines shall be established in order to provide an adequate setback for future building construction in the areas along these streets where additional rights-of-way and construction easements are planned.
(Code 1972, § 30-128; Code 1992, § 30-150; Ord. No. 2004-4, § 30-128, 9-7-2004)
Sec. 42-500. — Adoption of certain reports by reference.#
The Virginia Department of Transportation six-year improvement program and any transportation improvement program adopted by the town council shall be made a part of this chapter, by reference.
(Code 1972, § 30-129; Code 1992, § 30-151; Ord. No. 2004-4, § 30-129, 9-7-2004)
Sec. 42-501. — Same—setback requirements.#
Building setback lines on the streets enumerated in section 42-500 shall be measured from the future right-of-way lines or the lines shown as construction limits in the area functional plans of the town, whichever of the lines shall require the most setback, when such streets have approved local, state and/or federal funding.§
(Code 1972, § 30-131; Code 1992, § 30-153; Ord. of 6-2-1998; Ord. No. 2004-4, § 30-131, 9-7-2004)
Sec. 42-502. — Interpretation of setback lines.#
If no distance or other means is given to determine a setback line accurately, the location of the line shall be determined by the use of the scale shown in the plans as contained in the area functional plans of the town.
(Code 1972, § 30-133; Code 1992, § 30-155; Ord. No. 2004-4, § 30-133, 9-7-2004)
