Ordinance Exhibit D <br />DOWNTOWN RIVERFRONT <br />LAND USE COMPONENTS <br />CA 19-1, RA 19-1, Z 19-5, WG 19-3, ST 19-3, and SDR 19-2 April 19, 2019 <br />B. Add text to the Land Use Element Policy 2 under the "Skinner Butte Mixed Use Area -Subarea <br />11" heading as shown: <br />Change the zoning in the Skinner Butte Mixed Use Area to apply the MU -W Whitaker Mixed Use <br />District to properties designated for Mixed Use on the Whiteaker Plan Land Use Diagram except <br />for parcels that are zoned SD Special Development District. Apply R-3 Multiple -Family <br />Residential zoning to properties designated Limited High -Density Residential. Allow future <br />rezoning of parcels zoned SD as initiated by the property owner. Apply SR Site Review subdistrict <br />zoning to all property zoned MU -W Whitaker Mixed Use. except for property in the S -DR <br />Downtown Riverfront Special Area Zone. <br />As noted previously, the proposal changes the zoning designation of six properties from S -W to S -DR <br />and removes the SR overlay zone designation from those properties. All of the properties are adjacent, <br />across an alley, or across a street from land within a historic district, which appears to be the basis for <br />Site Review being applied according to the existing language in Policy 2. Two historic districts overlap <br />in the East Skinner Butte Neighborhood, one National Register (NR) and the other City Landmark (CL), <br />which cover approximately the same geography. The NR and CL historic district boundaries are <br />shown on Exhibit D: East Skinner Butte Historic District Map. <br />The proposed text amendments provide an exception from the requirement to apply Site Review to <br />properties that are across adjacent, across an alley, or across a street from land within a historic <br />district if they are zoned S -DR. <br />EC 9.8424 Refinement Plan Amendment Approval Criteria. The planning commission shall <br />evaluate proposed refinement plan amendments based on the criteria set forth <br />below, and forward a recommendation to the city council.
