Building height. No building shall exceed thirty-six (36) feet in height except as otherwise provided in article VII or as follows:

1.

Where the city council determines that the unique operating or structural characteristics of buildings, structures or other facilities located within the themed district justifies a height greater than thirty-six (36) feet, the city council may approve a greater height at the time the development plan is approved or amended, providing the city council finds that any one (1) of the following criteria have been met:

(a)

The approved development plan contains a use requiring an operational need for a single span building(s) requiring one hundred thousand (100,000) square feet or more of unobstructed floor space (having no interior structural supporting columns or walls) and the required structural roofing spans to accomplish this open area necessitate the increased building height; or

(b)

The approved development plan provides for underground or structured parking to be placed under a proposed building which raises the building pad and necessitates the increased building height; or

(c)

The approved development plan provides for preservation of historic or conservation areas within the development plan site, or provisions for public recreation facilities within the development plan site which reduces the area of developable land for buildings and necessitates the increased height to compensate for the reduced building pad area.

Any building height greater than sixty (60) feet shall be subject to the following additional requirement:

(1)

The maximum building height shall be stepped back from the edge of the property line at one (1) foot of vertical dimension for every three (3) feet of horizontal dimension as measured from the base height of sixty (60) feet.
