Traditional zoning vs. form -based zoning
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - - - - -- 60 ----------------------------------------------------------
Traditional zoning based on separating uses
Residential zones
o Commercial zones
o Industrial zones
• Form -based zoning
based
on form
of the building,
building placement
on the
lot, and
how the private
space meets the public space along the street.
Hybrid Zoning Code
• Use -based regulations — residential, commercial,
industrial
• Some form -based elements in the Central Business
Zones, Neighborhood Commercial Zone, Mixed Use
Zone and in our Multi- Family Site Development
Standards
• Ground level floor must be built to commercial standards;
• Store -front window requirement on ground -level floor;
• Prominent entrances at or near grade;
• Parking must be located behind the front plane of the building;
• Building articulation standards to break up monotonous
facades;
• Some architectural standards

parking
requirements.

regulating plan.

establish comfortable
street wall
Land Uses Allowed
4C
Broad range of commercial or residential uses
allowed within the allowed building and frontage
types
Uses mixed both vertically and horizontally
The regulating plan reserves specific primary
frontages for required storefronts.
Special standards for auto - oriented uses, such as gas
stations and drive - through facilities
Frontage Condition
A building's frontage condition - the transition
from public to private space, from indoor to outdoor
at the main entrance, the design treatment of first
story building facades, the configuration of fagade
projections, and the disposition of improvements
within required setbacks - strongly influences the
quality and character of public streets and
spaces.
