“Building height” is the vertical distance above grade, as defined in Section 17.04.310, to the highest point of the coping of a flat roof, to the deckline of a mansard roof or to average height of the highest gable of a pitched or hipped roof, whichever is applicable. The height of a stepped or terraced building is the maximum height of any segment of the building. (Ord. 2694 § 1, 1982; prior code § 17.08.090)
