Purpose and Intent The Downtown District Amenity Zone Form-Based Code Overlay (DDAZ FBC Overlay) is established to implement the 2015 Central Rohnert Park Priority Development Area (PDA) Plan’s vision to create an attractive and vibrant mixed-use downtown for the heart of Rohnert Park. It provides regulations that govern the form, use, and character of private development, as well as public realm elements including thoroughfares and civic spaces. This Chapter responds to the PDA Plan’s guidance to support the development of a mixed-use downtown core that is attractive, vibrant, walkable, and transit-oriented. 17.06.700.A.2. Applicability a. The standards and procedures of this Chapter will be applied to any development within the boundaries of the DDAZ FBC Overlay as shown on the City of Rohnert Park Zoning Map when one or more of the following occur: (1) The project requires new or modified vehicular access to the site; (2) The project includes new construction of 2,000 sf or greater; (3) The project includes addition(s) over 10% or renovations of over 50% of existing gross floor area of the building; (4) All or part of the project site lies within the Station Center Planned Development (P-D) Zoning district. b. For developments greater than 2 acres in size, and/or requiring new or modified thoroughfares, the standards in Section 17.06.710.A (General to Walkable Neighborhood Design) apply. c. For any project site zoned with the Planned Development or Station Center Planned Development (P-D) zoning district, the standards and procedures of this Chapter must be utilized instead of the specific development standards described in 17.06.210.B (General Provisions). Adopted November 27, 2018 Chapter 17.06, Article XIII: DDAZ Overlay Districts | 700.A-2 17.06.700.A.3. Relationship to Central Rohnert Park Priority Development Area Plan While the Priority Development Area (PDA) Plan establishes a series of land use designations and design guidelines for the DDAZ area, this Chapter establishes a series of Zones (DDAZ zones) that implement the land use goals and policies of the PDA Plan and standards and allowable land uses in these Zones as described in Section 17.06.720 (Specific to Zones). Standards include, but are not limited to, the layout of thoroughfares, blocks, and civic spaces, the placement and mass, height, and bulk of buildings, and the design of frontages and building types. The PDA Plan provides non-regulatory guidance for community character, architectural style, lighting, paving, loading and service, building massing, materials, colors, finishes, sustainable design, common facilities, street furnishings, fencing, walls, and entry monuments. In the event of any conflict between the standards of this Chapter and the standards and guidelines in the PDA Plan, the standards in this Chapter shall govern. 17.06.700.A.4. Relationship to Other City Ordinances and Laws a. If a provision of this Chapter is inconsistent with another provision of Title 17 (Zoning) of the Rohnert Park Municipal Code, or with a provision found in other adopted codes or ordinances of the City, the more restrictive provision shall govern, unless the terms of the more restrictive provision specify otherwise. b. Relationship to Article XV (Form-Based Codes for Special Areas) As a Form-Based Code, this chapter utilizes terms found and defined in Article XV (Form-Based Codes for Special Areas), however the standards found in Article XV do not apply within the DDAZ area. c. Relationship to Design Guidelines The Rohnert Park Design Guidelines for Commercial, Mixed-use, and Multifamily Buildings apply as a supplement to the design guidance found in the PDA Plan. In the event of any conflict between the Design Guidelines and the guidelines found in the PDA Plan, the PDA Plan shall apply. 17.06.700.A.5. How to Use the DDAZ Overlay Figure 17.06.700.A.5.a provides an overview describing how to use the regulations in this Chapter.

These standards supplement the standards for each transect zone. Civic space is land that is improved for civic gathering purposes per one of the allowed types in this section. For each civic space type, a description, a statement of the type's intent, and design standards are provided. These standards are intended to ensure development that establishes or reinforces the intended character and scale of the DDAZ. a. Civic Space Allocation (1) The development shall set aside a minimum of 10 percent of the project area as civic space using the types allowed in DDAZ zones. The 10 percent shall be calculated after street rights-of-way are subtracted from the project area. (2) The required amount of civic space shall be distributed throughout the neighborhood. Neighborhood means the area approximately within 1,500 feet of the site that is also not separated by freeway or railroad. b. Building Frontage. The relationship along property lines of a civic space to adjacent buildings and design sites shall be regulated as follows: (1) The facades on design sites attached to or across a thoroughfare from a civic space shall be designed as a "front" on to the civic space for at least three quarters of the civic space perimeter, in compliance with the allowed frontages. c. Public Access. Public access and visibility along public parks, civic uses, and natural open spaces, including creeks and drainages, shall be maintained through the use of: (1) Single-loaded frontage streets (those with development on one side and open space on the other); (2) Houses that front directly onto a bike or pedestrian path along the natural open space. (3) Other methods of frontage that provide similar access and visibility to the open space appropriate in the transect zone. d. Accessory Structure Standards. Accessory structures within civic spaces, including, but not limited to, restrooms, open-air pavilions, gazebos, picnic shelters and outdoor theaters, are subject to the applicable standards of the zone in Section 17.06.720 (Speciﬁ c to Zones). 710.B-2 | Chapter 17.06, Article XIII: DDAZ Overlay Districts Adopted November 27, 2018 17.06.710.B.2 Civic Space Types a. This Section identiﬁ es the allowed civic space types in DDAZ zones. b. Civic Space Types. Multiple civic space types are deﬁ ned in Table 17.06.710.B.2.a (Civic Space Type Overview). Two of the civic space types, Playgrounds and Community Gardens, may be incorporated into any of the other types or may stand alone. The illustration and description of each civic space type are illustrative and not regulatory. c. Location and Size. The service area, size, frontage, and disposition of standards of each civic space type are regulatory. (1) Service Area. Describes how the civic space relates to the city as a whole and the intended area to be served by the civic space. (2) Size. The overall range of allowed sizes of the civic space. The minimum size of the civic space may be adjusted per the procedures in Table 17.06.740.C.2.a (Minor Modiﬁ cations). (3) Character. Civic spaces shall be designed and furnished to be consistent with the character of the zone in which they are located. Such consistency may require accessory structures to maintain building setbacks, frontage, massing, disposition and character similar to adjacent development as determined by the Director. (4) Disposition of Elements. The placement of objects within the civic space. (i) Natural. Civic spaces with natural character shall be designed in a natural manner with no formal arrangement of elements. (ii) Formal. Civic spaces with a formal character shall be designed in a more rigid layout that follows geometric forms and has trees and other elements arranged in formal patterns. (iii) Informal. Civic spaces with an informal character shall be designed to have a mix of formal and natural characteristics. d. Typical Facilities. Each type identiﬁ es the allowed types of accessory structures provided within the civic space. This list is not intended to be a complete list of structures allowed nor is it intended that every civic space contain each of the structures listed. Proposed structures larger than the indicated gross square footage (gsf) require review and approval by the Director. e.

This Section sets forth the standards for streets appropriate for use within the DDAZ. b. Thoroughfares have been designed to balance the needs of pedestrians with vehicles and to establish a high-quality, pedestrian-friendly environment. 17.06.710.C.2 Applicability a. The standards of this section apply to the construction of a new thoroughfare in a transect zone and/or when an application for a site over 2 acres with new thoroughfares or modiﬁ cations to existing thoroughfares is proposed. b. The standards of this section apply to existing thoroughfares as follows: (1) Improvement or modiﬁ cation to curb return, pedestrian crossing, landscaping, or sidewalk; (2) Improvement or modiﬁ cation to on-street parking, or lane striping; (3) Improvement or modiﬁ cation to right-of-way; c. The individual standards of each thoroughfare type in this section may be adjusted administratively by the City Engineer. Subject to the following considerations. The proposed adjustment: (1) Supports the intended physical character of the transect zone(s). (2) Maintains multiple modes of transportation (transit, pedestrian, bicycles, automobiles). (3) Predominantly maintains sidewalks of at least 6 feet wide, where feasible, on all residential streets and at least 10 feet on commercial streets where possible. (4) Maintains on-street parking for a majority of each block face. (5) Maintains regularly spaced street trees. d. Additional thoroughfare types may be developed, subject to City review and approval, using the components and standards listed below: Table 17.06.710.C.2.a Thoroughfare Elements Element Code Reference Intersections 17.06.710.C.4 Pedestrian Crossings 17.06.710.C.5 Chapter 17.06, Article XIII: DDAZ Overlay Districts | 710.C-1Adopted November 27, 2018 17.06.710.C.2 17.06.710.C.3 Movement Types and Design Speed Movement types are intended to assist in appropriate thoroughfare design for the necessary level of pedestrian and bicyclist safety and comfort at any given location. Design speed is the primary determinant of movement type. Anticipated movement types and design speeds (along with their assigned lane widths and curb radii) are provided for each thoroughfare type in Sub-Sections 17.06.710.C.7.a-m. a. The design criteria for Yield, Slow, and Low thoroughfares shall be commensurate with local thoroughfares. Design speeds higher than 35 mph shall not be used in areas intended to support moderate or high levels of pedestrian or bicycle activity due to concerns with pedestrian safety and comfort. 710.C-2 | Chapter 17.06, Article XIII: DDAZ Overlay Districts Adopted November 27, 2018 17.06.710.C.3 17.06.710.C.4 Intersections The following shall be applied in the design process to all thoroughfare types with the preﬁ x "new" and to additional types that are designed. They are already integral to the thoroughfare types not containing the preﬁ x "new". a. Street design of narrow streets and compact intersections requires designers to pay close attention to the operational needs of transit, ﬁ re and rescue, waste collection and delivery trucks. For this reason, early coordination with transit, ﬁ re and rescue, waste collection and other stakeholder groups is essential. b. More regular encroachment of turning vehicles into opposing lanes will occur at compact intersections. Therefore, frequency of access, traffi c volumes and the speeds on intersecting streets at those intersections shall be considered when designing intersections. For ﬁ re and rescue, determination of the importance of that street for community access should be determined, (e.g. primary or secondary access). c. The designer shall use turning templates or software to evaluate intersections to ensure that adequate operation of vehicles can occur. Location of on-street parking around intersections may be evaluated during this analysis to identify potential conﬂ icts between turning vehicles and on-street parking. Bike lanes and on-street parking will increase the eff ective curb return radius, when curb extensions are not applied, by providing more room for the wheel-tracking of turning vehicles. d. Table 17.06.710.C.4.a. provides standards for the curb radius when improving existing intersections or designing new intersections. Table 17.06.710.C.4.a: Curb Radius Movement Type Design Speed Curb Radius 1 Eff ective Curb Radius (From Subsection A of 17.06.710.C.7 Thoroughfare Types)A B Yield <20 mph 10' 25' Slow 20-25 mph 10' - 15' 25' - 35' Low 30-35 mph 20'-25' 50' - 60' Endnotes 1 This Table provides the allowed curb radius range by movement type and speed. The dimensions above require the provision of an eff ective curb radius that meets the needs of ﬁ re and emergency access.

Table 17.06.710.C.5.a: Pedestrian Crossings Type Description Directional Curb Ramps Diagonal corner ramps are preferred when feasible. When not feasible, perpendicular corner curb ramps with a separate ramp installed in each direction shall be used. Crosswalks Crosswalks shall be designed per the city's applicable standards and applicable State/County guidelines and standards. Medians Medians, where provided, shall provide a median refuge at the intersection. At signalized intersections, median refuges shall not be used to stage pedestrians. Pedestrians shall be accommodated to get entirely across the roadway. 10 ' m i n . 12 ' o r l e n g t h of c r o s s w a l k mi n .

Zones Overview a. The standards in this Section provide building form standards, use, and parking standards for each zone. Some zones have a sub-zone that allows the same built form but with either additional or limited ground floor and upper floor uses. Table 17.06.720.B.2.a provides an overview of the DDAZ Zones. b. Buildable Sites and Building Types. i. The term "Buildable Site" in this Section refers to a potential site boundary that may or may not equate to a legal parcel. Buildable sites expressed in this Section intend to accommodate one primary building type, accessory structures including one carriage house (when applicable), and private open space associated with the primary building type. c. At least one of each of the following, in compliance with the listed standards, must be selected for each Buildable Site: i. Building Type (17.06.730.B); and ii. Frontage Type (17.06.730.C) d. Accessory Buildings and Structures. i. Accessory buildings and structures are allowed and regulated in Section 17.10.060. 17.06.720.A.4. Regulating Plan a.

Introduction. This Sub-Section establishes the methodology used to measure the height of a building. The methodology applies to primary and accessory buildings and structures. (1) The DDAZ zones use several methods to regulate the building height, including regulating the overall building height, the height to the eave or parapet and the number of stories. These methods are used together to help ensure that new development is consistent in character and scale across the DDAZ. See Figure 17.06.730.A.1.a. b. Applicability. The standards in this Sub-Section are applicable to all development within the DDAZ. The maximum height of a building or structure is established in Section 17.06.720 (Specific to Zones). c. Overall Building Height. Overall building height shall be measured vertically from the finished grade adjacent to the building exterior to the building height plane. (1) Building Height Plane. The building height plane is an imaginary plane that is used to determine the height of the building. It is determined as follows: (i) The plane shall be parallel to the natural grade of the site; and (ii) The plane shall be set vertically at the highest point of the coping of a flat roof, the top of a mansard roof, or the highest point of the highest pitched roof. d. Building Height to Eave/Parapet. Building height to eave/parapet shall be measured vertically from the finished grade adjacent to the building exterior to the eave or top of the parapet. e. Building Height by Story. A story shall be measured as follows for purposes of regulating the height of the building: (1) A story that meets the height regulations in Table 17.06.730.A.1.a (Maximum Height of a Floor) shall be counted as one story. A story that exceeds the height regulations in Table 17.06.730.A.1.a shall be counted as two or more stories. (2) Basements with an exterior exposed wall greater than four feet shall count as a story. The height of the exterior wall shall be measured from the finished grade to the finished floor of the story above. f. Half-Story. Finished attics shall be measured as a knee wall maximum height of five feet and a finished floor to finished ceiling maximum height of nine feet. g. Knee Wall. A short wall, not necessarily high enough for a person to stand up next to, that supports rafters and encloses a finished attic or the top half-story of a building.

The purpose of this Sub-Section is to provide additional parking regulations for the DDAZ that supplement those found in Chapter 17.16 (Off-Street Parking Requirements). The Sub-Section provides options for adjusting parking requirements and providing parking alternatives. These standards ensure that the parking needs of new land uses and development are met, while being designed and located in a manner consistent with the desired character and development patterns of the DDAZ. b. Applicability. The parking standards of this Sub-Section shall apply to the following within the DDAZ area: (1) New development; (2) Changes in land use; and, (3) Changes made in intensity of buildings or structures of 15 percent or more of: (i) Gross floor area; (ii) Seating capacity; (iii) Dwelling units; (iv) Parking spaces; and/or, (v) Other units of measurement listed in Table 17.06.730.A.2.a (Number of Motor Vehicle Parking Spaces Required). (4) Should any conflict arise between the regulations found in this Sub-Section and Chapter 17.16, the standards found in this Sub-Section shall apply. (5) All parking spaces provided shall meet the location, design, landscaping and improvement requirements in this Sub-Article. c. Bicycle Parking (1) See Section 17.16.140 (Bicycle Parking) for Bicycle Parking standards. d. Off-Site/Premises Parking (1) See Section 17.16.070 (Shared Parking) e. Number of Motor Vehicle Parking Spaces Required (1) Parking Requirements. The number of required motor vehicle spaces for residential, retail, and service uses are regulated in Section 17.06.720 (Specific to Zones). For those regulated uses, the requirements of Table 17.06.730.A.2.a (Number of Motor Vehicle Parking Spaces Required) shall not apply. For all other uses not listed in Section 17.06.720 (Specific to Zones), the requirements of Table 17.06.730.A.2.a (Number of Motor Vehicle Parking Spaces Required) shall apply. (i) Fractional parking requirements, when applicable, shall be rounded up to the next whole number. (ii) Parking may be covered or uncovered unless specified in Section 17.06.720 (Specific to Zones). (iii) Parking requirements for uses not addressed in Section 17.06.720 or not listed in Table 17.06.730.A.2.a shall be determined at the discretion of the Department Director. (2) Maximum Number of Parking Spaces. Developments over 20,000 square feet shall not exceed the minimum number of parking spaces by more than five percent. The Department Director may allow an additional five percent increase in the number of parking spaces if an applicant can show through a parking demand study that additional parking spaces are required. Adopted November 27, 2018 Chapter 17.06, Article XIII: DDAZ Overlay Districts | 730.A-4 Table 17.06.730.A.2.a: Number of Motor Vehicle Parking Spaces Required Use Number of Required Spaces Residential Land Uses Multifamily Studio or 1 Br. 1 space/unit 2 Br. 1.5 spaces/unit 3+ Br. 2 spaces/unit Retail 2.5 spaces/1,000gsf Office or Public 3 spaces/1,000gsf f. Parking Adjustments (1) Recreation, Education, and Assembly Uses. (i) Parking requirements based on gross square feet may take a reduction of 5,000 sf; or (ii) Parking requirements not based on gross square feet may take a reduction of up to 12 spaces. (iii) The Department Director may require uses under 5,000 sf to provide parking in instances where that use is likely to generate significant parking demand. (2) Senior Citizen Housing. The minimum parking requirement provided for in Table 17.06.730.A.2.a (Number of Motor Vehicle Parking Spaces Required) shall be reduced by 25% for each passenger vehicle made available permanently for use by the residents of each 75 such units or fraction thereof, provided that not less than 0.5 space shall be provided for each Residential Dwelling Unit served. (3) Transit. A parking reduction of up to 30 percent may be approved by the Department Director for any use within one-quarter mile of an active bus stop or other transit stop. (4) On-Street Parking Spaces. Spaces adjacent to the lot may count towards the required residential guest parking, if applicable, and non-residential use parking requirements. (5) Bicycle Parking Substitution. Required vehicular parking spaces may be reduced at a rate of one vehicular parking space for every two bicycle parking spaces provided above the minimum required by Sub-Section 17.06.730.A.2.c (Bicycle Parking). Reduction in parking shall not exceed a maximum of 20 percent of the required motor vehicle parking spaces. (6) Shared Parking Simplified. For two use types, shared parking shall be calculated as follows. The sum of the required parking for the two use types shall be divided by the factor listed in the table below. If the use is not listed below, then the shared parking shall be based on Sub-Section 17.06.730.A.2.g. (Shared Parking Study). Table 17.06.730.A.2.b: Shared Parking Factor for Two Uses Residential Lodging Office Retail Residential 1.0 1.1 1.4 1.2 Lodging 1.1 1.0 1.7 1.3 Office 1.4 1.7 1.0 1.2 Retail 1.2 1.3 1.2 1.0 Adopted November 27, 2018 Chapter 17.06, Article XIII: DDAZ Overlay Districts | 730.A-5 g. Shared Parking Study. When three or more use types share parking or a use type is not listed in Table 17.06.730.A.2.a (Number of Motor Vehicle Parking Spaces Required), the amount of required parking may be reduced as follows: (1) The Department Director, with a recommendation from the Planning Commission as appropriate, may grant a reduction in the parking requirements set forth in this Section in the following cases: (i) Where uses in the same or adjoining development, having different peak hour demand, seek to share parking. The applicant must submit to the Department Director an analysis and substantiated projections of peak parking demand for the entire development to justify the shared use of parking spaces for separate uses. (ii) Where the special nature of a certain development (e.g., special types of housing projects inhabited by persons with low or no automobile ownership) does not require the amount of parking listed in Table 17.06.730.A.2.a (Number of Motor Vehicle Parking Spaces Required) or Section 17.06.720 (Specific to Zones). (iii) Where fewer parking spaces are needed due to special designs and traffic mitigation measures incorporated in the parking lot design and circulation plan. (2) The Department Director, and Planning Commission as appropriate, shall consider the following in determining whether a reduction is warranted: (i) The likelihood that the reduced number of parking spaces can satisfy demand; (ii) The amount of time during the year when the number of spaces provided may be insufficient and the amount of resulting parking overflow; (iii) The impact of periodic overflows upon the public streets and other parking facilities; and (iv) The nature of surrounding land uses, character of surrounding road system, and nearby circulation pattern. (3) Unless requested by Department Director, the burden to demonstrate that a reduction in parking requirements is warranted shall rest with the applicant. h. Parking Spaces, Lot Design and Layout (1) Accessible Parking. All parking facilities that require accessible parking spaces shall ensure that a portion of the total number of required parking spaces shall be specifically designated, located, and reserved for use by persons with physical disabilities, in accordance with the standards in the federal American with Disabilities Act (ADA). (2) Dimensional Standards for Parking Spaces and Aisles (i) General. Standard car parking spaces and parking lot aisles shall comply with the minimum dimension standards established in Table 17.06.730.A.2.c.

Adopted November 27, 2018 Chapter 17.06, Article XIII: DDAZ Overlay Districts | 730.A-6 (ii) Vertical Clearance. All parking spaces shall have a minimum overhead clearance of seven feet. (iii) Reduction for Sidewalk and Planter Overhangs. When a parking space abuts a sidewalk or planter; the front two feet of the required parking space length may overhang the planter or sidewalk provided that wheel stops or curbing are provided and the remaining area outside of the overhang meets the minimum width requirements of the sidewalk or planter. (iv) Spaces near Obstructions (a) When the side of a parking space abuts a wall or other structure that is taller than six inches, the width of the parking space shall be increased by two feet. (b) This provision does not apply to parking spaces abutting support columns in a parking garage. (v) Dimensional Adjustments. Parking structures may be subject to dimensional adjustments based on utilization, but in no case shall the standard parking space width be less than eight feet. Reduction in design standards shall be subject to approval by the Department Director or City Engineer. (3) Location (i) Location of required on-site parking is regulated by setbacks set forth in Section 17.06.720 (Specific to Zones), and the following: (a) Parking lots with 20 or fewer spaces: all off-street parking areas shall be separated at least five feet from buildings in order to provide a sidewalk between the building and parking area. (b) Parking lots with more than 20 spaces: all off-street parking areas shall be separated at least 10 feet from buildings in order to make room for a sidewalk, landscaping, and other planting between the building and the parking area. (c) This separation may be eliminated to the rear of buildings in areas designed for unloading and loading of materials. (ii) Required parking is not permitted in the required front yard setbacks. (iii) Required parking in the exterior side yard is allowed when the parking space is a minimum of 20 feet from the exterior side property line and the parking space is located behind the front of the building. (4) Access. The following standards are applicable to off-street parking lot access design: (i) Each required off-street parking space shall open directly onto an aisle or driveway as specified in Table 17.06.730.A.2.c (Minimum Dimensional Requirements for Off-Street Parking Spaces and Aisles). All off-street parking facilities shall be designed with an appropriate means of vehicular access to a street or to an alley to cause the least interference with traffic movements. (ii) Parking spaces in any parking lot or parking structure for any use other than single-family dwellings shall not be designed or located so as to permit a vehicle to enter or exit a parking space directly from a public thoroughfare and shall meet the following standards: (a) Ingress to and egress from parking spaces shall be from an on-site aisle or driveway. (b) Exception, parking spaces within lots of up to eight spaces may be designed or located so as to permit a vehicle to enter or exit a parking space directly from a public alley or rear lane. (iii) Driveways to the public thoroughfares shall be by forward motion of the vehicle. (iv) Driveways from a public thoroughfare to off-street parking areas in all residential zones shall meet the following: Adopted November 27, 2018 Chapter 17.06, Article XIII: DDAZ Overlay Districts | 730.A-7 (a) Driveways shall be a minimum of 10 feet wide; and (b) If a driveway serves more than two dwelling units or is longer than 150 feet, the driveway shall have a minimum width and turnaround that comply with Fire Department requirements and applicable Engineering standards.

These standards supplement the standards for each zone in which the building types are allowed. These standards are intended to provide a range of mixed-use, multifamily, and single-family prototypes that are compatible with neighboring development and with each other in creating a downtown center for Rohnert Park. 17.06.730.B.2 Applicability a. The requirements of this Sub-Section shall apply to all proposed development within the Rohnert Park Center zones, and shall be considered in combination with the standards for the applicable zone in Section 17.06.720 (Speciﬁ c to Zones) and in the rest of this Sub-Section. b.

The names of the building types are not intended to limit uses within a building type. For example, a detached house may have non-residential uses within it, such as a restaurant or offi ce as may be allowed within the zone. Table 17.06.730.B.3.a (Building Types General) provides an overview of building types and sets forth whether such types are allowed by right, by review or are not allowed within the DDAZ zones as identiﬁ ed in Section 17.06.720.A.4 (Regulating Plan).

The Apartment Block Building Type is a large- sized structure that typically consists of 30-300 side-by-side and/or stacked dwelling units (or more when senior housing is used), typically with one shared entry per block face for upper story units and individual entries for ground ﬂ oor units. The type is intended to occupy at least one half of and up to an entire block, with the building oriented around one or more internal courtyards and incorporating structured and/or subterranean parking facilities accessed from midblock entries. The type is appropriately scaled to ﬁ t within medium and high-density neighborhoods and districts. To establish an appropriate scale, the type incorporates frequent vertical articulations that reduce building facades down into a series of smaller forms. This type enables appropriately-scaled, well-designed higher densities and is important for providing a broad choice of housing types and promoting walkability. This type may also accommodate retail, service, and other non-residential uses as allowed by the zone. Block-Scale Building D-N D-MS D-C Live/Work. The Live/Work Building Type is a small to medium- sized attached or detached structure that consists of one dwelling unit above and/or behind a ﬂ exible ground ﬂ oor space that can be used for residential, service, or retail uses. Both the ground- ﬂ oor ﬂ ex space and the unit above are owned by one entity. This type is typically located within medium-density neighborhoods or in a location that transitions from a neighborhood into a neighborhood main street. It is especially appropriate for accommodating home-based businesses, incubating neighborhood-serving retail and service uses and allowing neighborhood main streets to expand as the market demands. House-Scale Building <3 units; Block-Scale Building >3 units D-N D-MS D-C Main Street. The Main Street Building Type is a small- to medium- sized structure, typically attached. It may be a commercial building or a vertical mixed-use building with ground-ﬂ oor retail or service uses, and upper-ﬂ oor service, offi ce, or residential uses.

The main facade of the building has a small-to-medium setback from the frontage line. The resulting front yard is typically very small and can be deﬁ ned by a fence or hedge to spatially maintain the edge of the street. The engaged porch has two adjacent sides of the porch that are engaged to the building while the other two sides are open. Stoop. The main facade of the building is near the frontage line, and the elevated stoop engages the sidewalk. The stoop shall be elevated above the sidewalk to ensure privacy within the building. Stairs or ramps from the stoop may lead directly to the sidewalk or may be side-loaded. This type is appropriate for residential uses with small setbacks. Forecourt. The main facade of the building is at or near the frontage line and a small percentage is set back, creating a small court space. The space could be used as an entry court or shared garden space for apartment buildings, or as an additional shopping or restaurant seating area within retail and service areas. Dooryard. The main facade of the building is set back a small distance and the frontage line is deﬁ ned by a low wall or hedge, creating a small dooryard. The dooryard shall not provide public circulation along a ROW.

This type is intended for buildings with ground-ﬂ oor commercial uses and may be one or two stories. The gallery should provide the primary circulation along a frontage and extend far enough from the building to provide adequate protection and circulation for pedestrians. Arcade. A covered walkway with habitable space above often encroaching into the ROW. The arcade should extend far enough from the building to provide adequate protection and circulation for pedestrians. This type is intended for buildings with ground ﬂ oor commercial uses and is common along public courtyards and paseos. Terrace. The main facade of the building is at or near the frontage line with an elevated terrace providing public circulation along the facade. This type can be used to provide at-grade access while accommodating a grade change. Frequent steps up to the terrace are necessary to avoid dead walls and maximize access.

The Live/Work Building Type is a small to medium-sized attached or detached structure that consists of one dwelling unit above and/or behind a ﬂ exible ground ﬂ oor space that can be used for residential, service, or retail uses. Both the ground- ﬂ oor ﬂ ex space and the unit above are owned by one entity. This type is typically located within medium-density neighborhoods or in a location that transitions from a neighborhood into a neighborhood main street. It is especially appropriate for accommodating home- based businesses, incubating neighborhood-serving retail and service uses and allowing neighborhood main streets to expand as the market demands. See 17,06.730.B.3.d (Live/ Work). M. Deﬁ nitions Main Body. The primary massing of a building. Main Building. The building that serves as the focal point for all activities related to the principal use of the lot. Main Façade. The front façade of a Main Building. Main Street Mixed-Use Building. The Main Street Building Type is a small- to medium- sized structure, typically attached. It may be a commercial building or a vertical mixed- use building with ground-ﬂ oor retail or service uses, and upper-ﬂ oor service, offi ce, or residential uses. This type makes up the primary component of a neighborhood main street and portions of a downtown main street, therefore being a key component to providing walkability. See 17,06.730.B.3.e (Main Street). Mansion Apartment. This type is a medium-sized structure that consists of 3–6 side-by- side and/or stacked dwelling units, typically with one shared entry or individual entries along the front. This type has the appearance of a medium-sized family home and is appropriately scaled to ﬁ t sparingly within primarily single-family neighborhoods or into medium-density neighborhoods. This type enables appropriately-scaled, well-designed higher densities and is important for providing a broad choice of housing types and promoting walkability. This type may also accommodate retail, service, and other non-residential uses as allowed by the zone. See 17,06.730.B.3.b (Mansion Apartment). Major. Having a greater size, scope, eff ect, characteristic or quality relative to the other corresponding sizes, scopes, eff ects, characteristics or qualities; or being the greater of two or more. Massing. The overall shape or arrangement of the bulk or volume of buildings and structures. Minor.

Multiple functions within the same building or the same general area through superimposition or within the same area through adjacency. Movement Type. (1) Low. Drivers generally expect to travel without delay at the appropriate design speed. Thoroughfare design supports safe pedestrian movement at the higher design speed. This movement type is appropriate for thoroughfares designed to traverse longer distances to connect with higher intensity locations. Design speed is 30-35 mph. Chapter 17.06, Article XIII: DDAZ Overlay Districts | 750.A-5Adopted November 27, 2018 Deﬁ nitions of Specialized Terms and Phrases | 17.06.750.A.1 (2) Slow. Drivers generally proceed carefully with an occasional stop to allow a pedestrian to cross or another car to park. The character of the thoroughfare should make drivers uncomfortable exceeding the design speed due to the presence of parked cars, sense of spatial enclosure from buildings and street trees, tight turning radii, and other design elements. Design speed is 20-25 mph. (3) Yield. Drivers generally proceed slowly, with caution, and yield to approaching traffi c when vehicles are parked on both sides of the thoroughfare creating essentially one through lane. A Yield thoroughfare is the functional equivalent of traffi c calming. In addition to Yield movement use on normal thoroughfares, this movement is used for alleys and rear lanes. For these applications, the primary purpose is access to rear loaded driveways/access for residential and commercial property. The travel lane for Rear Lanes can be conﬁ gured for one-way or two- way operation. When used for two-way travel, parking is required on both sides of street in order to facilitate the Yield movement type and drivers exiting garages or driveways will need to yield to those vehicles occupying the lane; therefore, the number of properties connected to the rear lane should be considered.
