ATTACHMENT A <br />Summary of Downtown/Mixed Use Development Amendments <br />July 1, 2013 <br /> <br />Code <br />Topic Description <br />Section(s) <br />1. Housing in The goal of these amendments is to increase housing opportunities in commercial areas. EC 9.2160, <br />Commercial Table 9.2160 <br /> <br />This amendment would allow for multi-housing on the ground floor in a building in the C-2 Community Commercial <br />EC 9.2161 <br />zone citywide, where currently it is only allowed if a certain percentage of the ground floor of the building is in <br />commercial or non-residential use. Council recently removed this requirement for downtown. The amendment would <br />also allow for one or two apartment units (aka non “multi-family”) in the C-3 Major Commercial zone in a building with <br />commercial use on the ground floor, but not allow traditional detached single-family dwelling or duplexes. <br />2. Surface Parking The goal of this amendment is to provide flexibility for redevelopment sites within downtown. EC 9.2161 <br />Limitation <br />Currently, in the C-3 zone, the maximum number of surface parking spaces is limited to 20 when the parking is not <br />associated with a use on the site. All parking in excess of 20 must be within a parking structure, and new stand-alone <br />surface parking lots are prohibited. This amendment would allow up to 20 additional surface parking spaces for sites <br />where all vehicle access is via an alley, and would remove prohibition on stand-alone surface parking lots. <br />3. Large The goal of this amendment is to ensure that development standards applicable to downtown developments are EC 9.2171 <br />Commercial appropriate for a high quality urban setting. EC 9.2173 <br />Facilities <br /> <br />Currently, new buildings with 25,000 square feet or more of floor area in commercial zones are required to meet the <br />Standards <br />Large Commercial Facilities Standards, which for the most part, require designs intended for a suburban, car oriented <br />context. This amendment would exempt downtown developments from certain large commercial facilities standards, <br />including on-site pedestrian circulation, that are redundant in an urban setting with ample sidewalks, but would retain <br />requirements for providing building articulation, ground floor windows and other relevant standards. <br /> <br />4. Commercial The goal of this amendment is to make the commercial landscaping standards align with desired urban development EC 9.2171 <br />Landscaping and a pedestrian-oriented streetscape design. <br />Standards <br /> <br />This amendment would reduce the minimum landscape area requirement for C-2 zoned properties in downtown (C-3 <br />zoned properties are exempt from providing landscaping), and remove the required width for front yard landscape <br />beds. <br /> <br />
