24.590.010 Purpose and applicability.

The regulations in this development code are intended to create a well designed, pedestrian-oriented, economically viable neighborhood, and achieve the related goals and objectives identified in Chapter 2 of this specific plan (Form and Character).

This graphically oriented form-based development code clearly describes the required urban and architectural design patterns, while also carefully regulating the uses of the buildings and lots within the specific plan area. The development code specifies the allowed residential densities and intensity of the development that may be achieved under the specific plan. It also describes and regulates the design of the public space network that provides the framework and infrastructure for the UC Hansen Trust Property, focusing on a circulation network that balances the use of all travel modes, including automobiles, pedestrians, bicycles and transit. The development code is intended to complement the city’s zoning ordinance. (Formerly 24H.100)
