Purpose
General Floor Area Provisions
Floor Area Ratio Standards
20.68.010. Purpose
This chapter establishes the floor area ratio (FAR) regulations. These provisions
create mechanisms to equitably balance the amount of development to the capacity of
limited development resources for current and future construction. The principal
development resource of concern being the vehicular capacity of streets and intersections
and the sanitary sewer capacity.
20.68.020. General Floor Area Provisions
(a) Single Lot as Basis for FAR Calculations. The calculation of floor area
ratio shall be based on the area of the lot on which a building is located or
proposed. Adjoining lots shall not be included in FAR calculations. The city
shall not recognize or sanction the transfer of development rights regarding
FARs in the absence of specific enabling city regulations.
(b) Reduction of Lot Size. The area of a lot containing a building(s) shall not be
reduced below the size required to meet the minimum floor area ratio of the appropriate
zoning district.
(c) Lot Sizes for the Subdivisions of Substandard Multiple-Building Lots. When
subdividing an existing lot that exceeds the maximum FAR standard and that contains
multiple buildings the resultant lot sizes shall be proportional to the floor area of the
buildings each new lot contains to the total floor area of all the buildings.
(d) The total floor area of a lot containing multiple buildings shall be the aggregate of
all the buildings.
(e) Condominium Unit Floor Area Entitlement. In condominium projects an
individual unit's floor area entitlement shall be based upon its prorated share of the
condominium's lot area. The basis of a unit's prorated share shall be equal to the floor
area of the unit, as stated in or as calculated from the original condominium documents
or maps divided by the condominium's total floor area.
(f) Exceptions for Development Exceeding FAR Standards.
(1) Buildings Conforming. Buildings on lots exceeding the FAR standards, on the
effective date of these regulations, shall not be considered nonconforming for the
Zoning Ordinance Amendments 4
purposes of Chapter 20.97 if such classification would solely be caused by the
application of the FAR standards.
(2) FAR "Grandfathered." The allowed FAR for lots with
existing development exceeding this chapter's standards shall be
the lot's actual documented FAR. To be entitled to this exception
the property owners must insure that there is acceptable
documentation of a property's FAR on record with the city of
South San Francisco prior to any possible destruction or
demolition.
(3) Applicable to Legal Construction Only. The entitlements and
exceptions of this subsection apply only to those buildings and portions
of buildings which were legally constructed.
20.68.030 Floor Area Ratio Standards
(a) Base FAR Standards. The floor area ratio standards for each zoning district are as
contained in table 20.68.030 and as may be exempted or modified in the following
subsections:

use permit must be accompanied by an environmental document
analyzing the possible adverse impacts which may result from increasing
the FAR above the standard. The document shall include the an analysis
of the immediate and cumulative impact on limited development
resources including traffic system capacity.
(B) An additional use permit finding must be made that the
project meets the city's development requirements and any adopted
design or development guidelines or standards.

(2) PUD - Sites of less then 20 Acres. The FAR may be exceeded for sites of
less 30 than 20 acres in size subject to the approval of a Planned Unit
Development Permit (PUD).
(A) Superior Character Finding. Granting of the PUD shall
be based on the following additional finding: The project will be
of a superior character that offsets the adverse impact of the
increased FAR. Examples of development and architectural
components that contribute to a finding of superior character
include: outstanding building and site plan design; enhanced
landscaping including usable entry plazas; and special services
or human amenities which reduce the use of private vehicles
such as day care services, employee shuttles to mass transit
stations, and employee showers and locker rooms;
(B) Environmental Assessment. The PUD must be
accompanied by an environmental document analyzing the
possible adverse impacts which may result from increasing the
FAR above the standard. The assessment shall discuss the
immediate and cumulative impact on limited development
resources including traffic capacity.
(3) Retail and Personal Service Space Exemption. That floor area of a
building dedicated to retail sales and or personal services, not exceeding ten
percent of the total building area, is exempted from the calculation of FAR. The
retail and or personal service use shall otherwise meet all the zoning
requirements including the parking standards.
(e) Light Industrial Zoning District Exceptions. The following exceptions are
applicable in the Light Industrial Zoning District:
(1) Ancillary Parking Structures. Parking structures ancillary to the
main use(s) of a site are excluded from the FAR calculations.

(A) The number of peak hour vehicle trips, both
entering and exiting the property shall be less than or equal to
the maximum number of peak hour trips expected from any
other use allowed in the Light Industrial Zoning District.
Compliance with this standard shall be assessed based on a
traffic study prepared under the direction of the City at the
expense of the project sponsor.

regulations and standards of the South San Francisco Municipal
Zoning Ordinance Amendments 6
Code, General Plan and other design or development standards
as may be adopted by the Planning or City Council.

design shall not create any traffic safety problems or cause
circulation problems on public streets.
(3) Retail and Personal Service Space Exemption. That floor area of
a building dedicated to retail sales and or personal services, not

to the resource. This finding shall be based upon a site specific
biological resource evaluation performed by a qualified biologist and
consistent with Federal and State laws.
(g) Facility Master Plan Projects - Exceptions to FARS. Revised FAR
standards for individual facilities may be established through the approval of a
facility master plan and implementing zoning as described below in this section.
Development projects, in such a facility, which comply with the revised FAR
standard are still subject to all other zoning procedures, standards and
regulations but such a project shall not be subject to discretionary review solely
for reason of its FAR. This provision does not proscribe or limit discretionary
review regulations to which a project may otherwise be subject due to its total
floor area, its average daily traffic generation, the architectural character and
bulk of its buildings or other matters related to the size or use of its structures.
(1) Minimum Acreage. A facility seeking a approval of a facility
master plan must be twenty acres or more in area and may be one or
more lots. These lots shall be under the direct and long term control of
the plan's sponsor.
(2) Overlay Zoning District Required. The review and approval
process for facilities with an approved master plan shall be established in
Zoning Ordinance Amendments 7
an overlay zoning district as prescribed in Zoning Ordinance Chapter
20.39 "Research and Development Overlay District Regulations."
(3) Findings. Prior to the approval of a facility master plan and
or recommending adoption of a implementing overlay district the
Planning Commission must make a finding regarding infrastructure
capacity. It must be found that there is sufficient capacity in the street
network and other infrastructure systems to support the facility's
projected demands together with the cumulative infrastructure loads of
future development which will share the same system components. This
finding must be based upon written reports of professionals qualified in
the fields in question. The reports are to document the existing capacity
of affected infrastructure systems, their existing capacities and demands;
quantify the additional loads of the proposed facility--at buildout and
that of the cumulative growth in each system's contribution area. Based
upon this information the authors shall evaluate system's projected
capacity and make recommendations for necessary system
improvements. The reports shall be prepared under contract to the City
at the project sponsor's expense.
