Figure 4.9: Building Key Site Design Elements in
Orientation Character Area 4: Hillside Residential
Note that the following site design elements are applicable in
Character Area 4a, 4b and 4c.

Building Placement
Variety in front setbacks is appropriate. Refer to design guidelines
5.1 and 5.3, and Figure 5.1.

Side Setbacks
Promote flexibility in the size of side setbacks, and differentiation
from one side of a building to the other. Refer to design
guidelines 5.1 and 5.3, and Figure 5.1.

Orientation
Where a structure is clearly visible from the public street, orient it
in the general direction of the street. The front wall of the building
need not be parallel to the street. Refer to design guidelines 5.6-
5.9 and Figures 4.9 and 5.4.

The placement of the building
relative to the street is flexible.
While some cases may call for a
building to be parallel to the street,
the orientation of a building is also
flexible.
