Sec. 4B.1.3. DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS DISTRICT 3¶
A. Intent
Development Standards District 3 prioritizes the pedestrian experience while enabling mobility for motor vehicles. Pedestrian access standards ensure easy access from the public right-of-way to building entrances, facilitating pedestrian movement. required automobile parking is moderate in order to ensure sites can accommodate some vehicular access within a walkable environment. Parking facilities must meet design standards to ensure pedestrian mobility, safety, and comfort are not hindered, and buildings provide active frontages along primary streets. On- site signs are sized and located to support a pedestrian-oriented public realm.
