For #enlargements# to #buildings# in Area G, on #zoning lots# with a #lot area# of at least 10,000 square feet and existing on
March 22, 2016, the City Planning Commission may:

(a)    modify the provisions of Section 94-092 (Maximum floor area ratio) to increase the permitted #floor area ratio# for
       #commercial# #use# to 2.0 provided that such #enlargement#:

       (1)    is designed so as not to impair the character of the surrounding area or its future development; and

       (2)    will not cause undue congestion on local #streets# or impair pedestrian circulation;

(b)    modify the height provisions of Section 33-431 (In C1 or C2 Districts with bulk governed by surrounding Residence
       District) relating to the requirements in Section 32-42 for location of #uses# within #buildings#, to allow a #commercial
       building# or portion thereof to exceed 30 feet in height or two #stories#, provided that such #building# shall not exceed a
       maximum height of 35 feet or three #stories#, whichever is less; and provided that the distribution of the #bulk# permits
       adequate access of light and air to surrounding #streets# and properties, and does not impair the view of the Bay; and

(c)    waive or reduce the number of #accessory# off-street parking spaces required by Section 36-21 (General Provisions) for
       such #use#, provided that the applicant has demonstrated that the number of #accessory# off-street parking spaces
       supplied is sufficient to meet the parking needs of such #use#.

The Commission may prescribe appropriate additional conditions and safeguards to minimize adverse effects on the character of
the surrounding area.
