(Ord. 13812, § 4(Exh. A), 7-30-2024)
17.101K.070 - Special Regulations for D-DT Work/Live Nonresidential Facilities.
A.
Definition of a D-DT Work/Live Unit. D-DT Work/Live Units are units contained within D-DT Work/Live Nonresidential Facilities that are designed to contain working space with accessory living space, are used for living and working, and meet the requirements of this Section.
B.
A D-DT Work/Live Nonresidential Facility must meet all applicable regulations contained in this Section. Section 17.102.190 relating to the conversion of buildings originally designed for Commercial or Industrial Activities into Joint Living and Working Quarters (JLWQs) does not apply to the D-DT Zones.
C.
D-DT Work/Live Units are Nonresidential Facilities and counted towards the nonresidential Floor Area Ratio, not the residential density.
D.
All D-DT Work/Live Units shall be designed under the Building Code to accommodate customers and employees. In the D-DT-AG and D-DT-PM Zones, D-DT Work/Live Units shall be designed under the Building Code to allow Manufacturing Activities.
E.
At least two-thirds of each unit shall be designated for working activities. Working and living activities shall be designated according to the following requirements:
In unpartitioned kitchens or work areas that include kitchen fixtures and appliances, the following areas are considered living space: the counters, cabinets, eating space, sink and appliances in the area that will function as a kitchen and the floor area that is four (4) feet in front these items.
If there is only one bathroom, half the bathroom shall be counted as living space and half shall be counted as workspace. Otherwise, bathrooms are counted as living space if their access is through living space. For instance, a bathroom in a loft is considered living space if the loft is a sleeping area. If the bathroom is accessed directly from the workspace, the bathroom shall be counted as workspace. If accessed directly from both, half the bathroom is considered living space and the other half commercial.
Interior hallways and closets shall be counted as part of the space to which they are adjacent.
Living and working spaces shall be within the same Work/Live Unit and be directly connected.
To accommodate flexible work activities, working areas shall be open and with as few interior walls as possible. "Offices" enclosed by four walls are considered living space because they are indistinguishable from bedrooms and cannot be used flexibly for different working activities.
All ground-floor units adjacent to the front façade shall have a street entrance directly into the working area. For these units, the working area shall be adjacent to the street right-of-way.
F.
Regular Design Review required. Establishment of a D-DT Work/Live Unit are only permitted upon determination that the proposal conforms to the Regular Design Review criteria set forth in the Design Review Procedure in Chapter 17.136 and to each of the following additional criteria:
