It is the requirement of Bountiful City that multiple family developments reflect a sense of proportion. Proportion requires that the development be designed in such a manner that each unit receives a reasonable and approximately proportionate share of the open space, landscaping, and other benefits of the site. Locating units in such a way that benefits of the site fall primarily to one unit, or a few units and not to others is prohibited. Depending upon topography, property dimensions and site configuration, it is possible that this requirement may affect the number of units that can be physically located on a lot or parcel. The Planning Commission and City Council are granted reasonable discretion in administering the proportionality requirement, and may modify yard setback requirements by up to twenty (20) percent subject to a finding that such modification will benefit all units more equally than would be possible if the standard requirement was applied.
