All townhouse developments in the R-TH zone must comply with the following standards: (a) A townhouse development shall be located on a site that measures a minimum of three (3) acres in area. (b) Each interior townhouse lot shall be at least twenty (20) feet in width. Each townhouse lot on a corner shall be at least forty-five (45) feet in width. Each interior townhouse lot that is intended to be at the end of a row of townhouses shall be at least thirty (30) feet wide. Each lot shall contain two thousand (2,000) square feet of area or more. (c) The setback from an interior side lot line shall be a minimum of ten (10) feet for the townhouse which is located at the end of a row of townhouses. A minimum setback of twenty-five (25) feet from side streets shall be maintained. Front yard setback will be no less than thirty (30) feet. Rear yard setback will be no less than thirty (30) feet, exclusive of accessory buildings. (d) An accessory building may abut an accessory building located on an adjacent lot in the townhouse district. (e) No more than four (4) townhouses shall be built in a row having the same building line.

A row or grouping of townhouses shall not exceed two hundred (200) feet in length. (f) Not more than one (1) single-family residence shall be located on a townhouse lot.

If parking spaces and driveways are located in the front yard of a lot, a setback of fifty (50) feet must be maintained for landscaping and other improvements. (i) The off-street parking provided for a townhouse may have direct access to a service street only if the service street has a minimum right-of-way width of thirty (30) feet.
