Chapter 23.504 — Village Center Zone Standards

[1] Prior legislation: Ord. 27-2008.

The purpose of the village center zone is to provide centers of activity that are within an easy walking distance from neighborhood homes and to provide local-serving commercial opportunities. A network of sidewalks, bicycle trails, and transit routes provides easy nonvehicular access to these centers. Buildings in this zone are appropriately scaled to fit in the neighborhood context. Buildings are placed close to the public sidewalk, and plazas and other public spaces encourage the active use of public spaces and pedestrian activity. Parking is provided on-street, in small lots, and/or located behind or to the side of buildings. Transit-supportive development is encouraged when located in proximity to a transit station. Vertical and/or horizontal mixed-use projects are encouraged in this zone. (Ord. 4-2017 § 3 (Exh. B))
