    Commercial Apartments may be placed above new or existing office or retail uses, subject to policies B-4.5 and B-4.6 of the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element. If not more than two commercial apartments are constructed on a single parcel, and the property is in a land use category permitting four du/a or more, neither the dwelling units nor the floor area shall be counted as density or intensity. If more than two such units are provided on a single parcel, or if the property is in a land use category of less than four du/a, the floor area of the commercial apartments shall not be included in the total floor area of the lot; however, the units shall be counted as dwelling units and meet the density requirements of the Comprehensive Plan. In the latter instance, lot area shall be proportionately assigned to each land use type, and the density and intensity thresholds of the Plan shall not be exceeded.

    Existing buildings may be demolished and replaced with new buildings (hereinafter "New Buildings") that conform to the requirements of this Section.
