The zoning ordinance requirements are as follows (Sec.3, Subd. 4.B.2.b.4)): Exterior Building Finish: The exterior of townhome dwelling units shall include a variation in building materials which are to be distributed throughout the building facades and coordinated into the architectural design of the structure to create an architecturally balanced appearance.
