A.
Boundaries
of the districts are hereby established as shown on the Official District
Map which, together with all descriptive matter relating thereto,
including, but not limited to, notations regarding amendments to the
map, is hereby adopted by reference and made a part of this code.
B.
Regardless
of the existence of purported copies of the District Map, which may
from time to time be made or published, the Official District Map
shall be located in the Office of the City Planner and shall be the
final authority as to the current zoning status of land and water
areas, buildings and other structures in the City.
[Ord. No. 111808 §1(400-402), 11-18-2008]
A.
Where
uncertainty exists as to the location of zoning district boundaries,
the following provisions shall govern the interpretation of their
location as shown on the Official District Map:
1.
Zoning district boundaries follow the boundary of street, alley,
waterway and railroad rights-of-way, unless otherwise indicated. When
the designation of a boundary line on the District Map coincides with
a street, alley, waterway or railroad right-of-way line, such right-of-way
line shall be construed to be the boundary line of such district.
2.
When zoning district boundaries do not coincide with the location
of street, alley, waterway or railroad rights-of-way, but do coincide
with lot lines, such lot lines shall be construed to be the boundary
of such district.
3.
Whenever any street, alley or public way is vacated by official action
of the Board of Aldermen, the zoning districts adjoining each side
of such street, alley or public right-of-way shall be automatically
extended to the center of such vacation and all area included in the
vacation shall be subject to all regulations of the extended district.
B.
Where
features existing on the ground contradict those shown on the Official
District Map or in case any other uncertainty exists, the location
of district boundaries shall be determined by the City Planner.
[Ord. No. 111808 §1(400-403), 11-18-2008]
Changes to the Official District Map shall be entered on the
map promptly after the amendment has been approved by the Board of
Aldermen, with the number of the amending ordinance entered either
within the changed area or in a fashion that would clearly relate
the ordinance number to the changed area.
[Ord. No. 111808 §1(400-404), 11-18-2008]
In the event that the Official District Map becomes damaged,
destroyed, lost or difficult to interpret because of the nature or
number of changes and additions, the Board of Aldermen may adopt by
ordinance a new Official District Map, which shall supersede the prior
Official District Map. The new Official District Map shall be identified
by the signature of the Mayor, attested by the City Clerk and shall
bear the Seal of the City. Unless the prior Official District Map
has been lost or has been totally destroyed, the prior map or any
significant parts thereof remaining shall be preserved, together with
all available records pertaining to its adoption or amendment.
[Ord. No. 111808 §1(400-405), 11-18-2008; Ord. No. 07012013A, 7-1-2013]
Whenever any land shall be annexed to the municipality, the
zoning designation of such land shall, at the discretion of the City
Planner, be changed to "AG" Agriculture or to the municipal zoning
designation that most closely resembles the existing use of the property.

provide goods and services to its residents and visitors to the community
in this area through the following distinct place types:
a.
Walkable retail. Smaller to medium scale commercial
center engaged in the sale of household merchandise, specialty merchandise,
restaurants and consumer products and typically involving between
five thousand (5,000) and twenty-five thousand (25,000) square feet
of gross leasable area. These uses are characterized by a target market
area of less than one (1) mile radius for most of its on premise sales.
b.
Destination retail. Commercial uses primarily
engaged in the sale of household merchandise, specialty merchandise
or general consumer products and typically involving between twenty-five
thousand (25,000) and one hundred thousand (100,000) square feet,
or more, of gross leasable area. Large scale retail uses are characterized
by a target market area that may be greater than one (1) mile radius
for the on premise component of its sales. Destination retail centers
may include services uses that provide support for adjacent residential
uses or businesses which may involve more than three thousand (3,000)
square feet of gross leasable area. Examples include copy centers,
large banks, or other similar services.
c.

development that creates a campus environment to connect multiple
development sites into a cohesive setting and pattern.
(1)
Small office. Uses include those
uses where individual units of gross leasable area are typically between
thirty-five hundred (3,500) and twenty thousand (20,000) square feet,
and where each owner or tenant typically employs between twenty (20)
and one hundred (100) employees on premises. Examples include large
professional service offices such as accountants, architects, insurance,
law, real estate, or other similar businesses.
(2)
Large office. Uses, or complexes,
include individual units of gross leasable area that may be more than
twenty thousand (20,000) square feet in a single building or group

one hundred (100) employees on premises. Examples include major professional
service firms or large corporate offices.
(3)
Light Industrial. Uses include
those where byproducts such as smoke, odor, dust or noise are not
discernable from outside of the building in which it is located. Distribution
and deliveries can occur from general consumer delivery services or
limited commercial truck access. Examples include research labs or
facilities, small electronics or computer assembly and manufacturing,
furniture assembly.
d.
Neighborhood retail. Small scale, commercial
center engaged in the sale of household merchandise and general consumer
products and typically involving between two thousand (2,000) and
five thousand (5,000) square feet of gross leasable area. Neighborhood
retail uses are characterized by a target market area of less than
one-half (1/2) mile radius for most of its on premise sales. An exception
can be made for one (1) anchor tenant or grocery store, of less than
forty-five thousand (45,000) square feet within a neighborhood center.
3.
Place type application. The place types are
allocated for the Peculiar Way interchange area according to the Place
Type Map which defines the Peculiar Way Design Overlay District and
its boundaries.
a.
West Peculiar Mixed-use Employment. The area designated as West Peculiar mixed-use employment shall be restricted to Light Industrial uses as defined in in Section 400.490(A)(2)(c).
4.
Planned Zoning. District Peculiar Way Design Overlay is a planned zoning district that overlays and amends underlying zoning classifications. Any conflict between the standards and guidelines in this Section and the underlying zoning shall be resolved in favor of this Section. Applications under the District Peculiar Way Design Overlay require submittal of sketch plans and development plans in accordance with the procedures and criteria for the "C-P" District and Chapter 400, Article XI, Review and Approval Procedures.
B.
Development Pattern And Structure.
1.
Block Size. The block size defines the pattern
and compactness of development and encourages walkability where the
blocks are small.
2.
Street type/streetscape. The street type and
streetscape design define the street network that shapes the public
realm, and transitions and differences in street types help define
distinct places.
a.
A-street. "A-streets" prioritize pedestrian
activity and create value for buildings and business that front directly
on them. In general "A-streets" shall have the following design features:
Wide sidewalks (twelve (12) feet to twenty (20) feet); on-street Parking
(eight (8) feet parallel or eighteen (18) feet angled); slow speeds
(below twenty (20) mph) target) and narrow travel lanes ten (10) feet;
frequent street trees planted in tree wells within sidewalks (twenty-five
(25) feet to forty (40) feet on center); seating area and other public
amenities along the sidewalk or associated with businesses; and frequent
cross-walks in association with short blocks.
b.
B-street. "B-streets" have a balance between
all modes of transportation (cars, pedestrians, bicycles and transit)
and promote access and connections to key places. In general, "B-streets"
shall have the following design features: Sidewalks (six (6) feet
to ten (10) feet); on-street parking (eight (8) feet parallel were
appropriate); moderate speeds (twenty (20) to thirty (30) mph) and
travel lanes ten (10) feet to eleven (11) feet; bicycle lanes where
appropriate; and a landscape buffer six (6) feet to ten (10) feet
with street trees between the street and sidewalk (or in tree wells
if on-street parking provides the buffer between vehicles and pedestrians).
c.
C-street. "C-streets" provide access throughout
the areas, and support important land uses that require a higher degree
of vehicle access and connections. Due to the difficult site designs
and compromised streetscapes that result, these streets are typically
on edges or secondary networks of more valuable places. In general,
"C-streets" shall have the following design features: Sidewalks (six
(6) feet to ten (10) feet or trail ten (10) feet plus(+)) where appropriate;
moderate to high speeds (twenty-five (25) — forty (40) mph)
and moderate to wide travel lanes (eleven (11) feet to twelve (12)
feet); and a landscape buffer (ten (10) feet plus(+)) with street
trees or landscape berms between the sidewalk or trail and road.
3.
Civic space/landscape. Civic space and landscape
design creates an extension of the public realm and establishes transitions
between public spaces and private development. The design of these
spaces can create gathering places, establish an aesthetic character
for the area, and/or screen and buffer more intense elements of site
or building designs.
a.
Formal space. Formal spaces are primarily designed
for people to gather and are designed with a high degree of pedestrian
amenity and ornamentation. These spaces are small and strategically
located, typically along important street frontages as an extension
of the public right-of-way or as a focal point of surrounding blocks.
They include landscape elements, but also have a significant amount
of hardscape. Examples include courtyards, plazas or squares.
b.
Open space. Open spaces are primarily designed
to promote an aesthetic character or buffer or screen elements of
a site from adjacent areas, and are designed with a high degree of
landscape amenity. These spaces are incorporated into sites for either
ecological or aesthetic functions. Examples include buffers, berms,
tree or landscape islands, greens or any natural storm water BMP.
c.
Campus space. Campus spaces are larger-scale
and coordinated landscaped areas designed to tie together larger and
more dispersed projects into a common theme. These spaces compliment
the street network as an extension of the public realm and though
accessible to bicycles and pedestrians, include a large amount of
landscape amenity (which can be natural or formal). Examples include
greens, trails and greenways, lawns and other landscaped or garden-like
amenities.
d.
Natural area. Natural areas are landscape areas
preserved or restored for their natural or ecological function. These
spaces are located based on inherent opportunity of the site but become
an organizing element and amenity for surrounding development patterns.
Examples include greenways, stream buffers, forested areas, or any
natural storm water BMP.
C.
Uses.
1.
Scale of use.
a.
Small scale. Uses that require less than five
thousand (5,000) square feet of space.
b.
Medium scale. Uses that require between five
thousand (5,000) square feet and sixty thousand (60,000) square feet
of space.
c.
Large scale. Uses that require more than sixty
thousand (60,000) square feet of space.
2.
Mix of uses.
a.
Retail. Use category is for businesses engaged
in the exchange of merchandise for general consumers, and nature of
the exchange generally requires frequent interactions with the clients,
customers or patrons on the premises, where lots or buildings are
primarily designed for exposure to the public-at-large.
b.
Services. Service uses include businesses engaged
in the exchange of professional skills, advice, personal care or other
resources, and the nature of the exchange generally requires frequent
interactions with the clients, customers or patrons on the premises,
and where lots or buildings may require access or exposure to the
public-at-large.
c.
Employment. Employment uses include businesses
engaged in administrative, clerical, professional operations and support,
and light industrial/manufacturing where products or services are
of the nature that generally, when compared to retail uses, do not
require daily on premise interactions with the clients, customers
or patrons, and where lots and buildings are not primarily designed
to maximize exposure to the public-at-large. Operations may require
commercial vehicle access for distribution and deliveries.
d.
Civic. Civic uses include uses serving a broad
and general public and community interest to enhance daily cultural,
social or recreation opportunities for area landowners and residents.
Civic uses may include uses that are public and accessible to all
citizens; common and accessible by rights associated with ownership;
or private and accessible by membership or general association.
e.
Residential. Residential uses include all types
of dwelling units used for permanent residence, including a variety
of lot types, building types, and unit types, that may vary in the
kind and classes of buildings based on the character of the neighborhood.
D.
Site Design.
1.
Building type/orientation.
a.
Small footprint. Small footprint buildings
allow for compact development patterns that add vitality by placing
a larger amount and wider variety of uses within close proximity to
a key destination. In general, small-footprint buildings are no greater
than three thousand (3,000) square feet (footprint), however a series
of these buildings may be joined by common walls along a block face.
b.
Large footprint. Larger footprint buildings
accommodate destination uses. However due to the larger impact and
difficult site design and building access and orientation challenges,
these buildings need to be carefully sited to not disrupt urban design
and development patterns of nearby areas. In general, large-footprint
buildings are typically single story (or extended single story) and
greater than fifty thousand (50,000) square feet.
c.
Street front. Street-front building orientation
over-rides conventional setbacks and places the building along the
front lot line. This helps define the public realm and streetscape
as important space, and adds activity and vitality to the streetscape
with pedestrian activity. In general, Street-front building orientation
includes the following design features: Front "build-to" line (zero
(0) feet to (10) feet); Building frontage on at least eighty percent
(80%) of the lot frontage/"build-to" line, except that up to fifty
percent (50%) may be set back to provide outside civic space along
the frontage; and Building orientation to the street (front entrance
features and active street level uses).
d.
Enhanced facade. Enhanced Facades create quality
and visual interest along the building frontage and typically accompanies
Street-front building orientation. In general, enhanced facade design
includes: Primary entrances (one (1) entrance at least every fifty
(50) linear feet); transparency (at least seventy percent (70%) windows
between two (2) feet and ten (10) feet from street level; twenty-five
percent (25%) to forty percent (40%) on each story above street level);
limited blank wall space (walls with no windows and doors - no more
than thirty (30) linear feet and six hundred (600) square feet); pedestrian
scale ornamentation and details - especially associated with primary
entrances or to animate blank wall space.
2.
Building materials. All building shall be constructed according to the following materials standards. Material use by category, primary, secondary or trim/accent, as identified in Table D-2, will be dependent on the place type identified in Subsection (A)(2) and in accordance with the percentage specified in Subsections (D)(2)(a) through (D)(2)(d).

scale of development to support adjacent walkable areas and as a transition
between intensive large-scale commercial uses and neighborhoods within
a community. In general, medium-footprint buildings are between five
thousand (5,000) square feet and thirty thousand (30,000) square feet
per floor. These buildings are typically single story but, in some
cases, can be multiple stories.
c.
Large footprint: Larger-footprint buildings accommodate destination
uses. However, due to the larger impact and difficult site design
and building access and orientation challenges, these buildings need
to be carefully sited to not disrupt urban design and development
patterns of nearby areas. In general, large-footprint buildings are
typically single story (or extended single story) and greater than
fifty thousand (50,000) square feet.
d.
Street front: Street-front building orientation overrides conventional
setbacks and places the building along the front lot line. This helps
define the public realm and streetscape as important space, and adds
activity and vitality to the streetscape with pedestrian activity.
In general, street-front building orientation includes the following
design features: front build-to line [zero (0) feet to ten (10) feet]
building frontage on at least eighty percent (80%) of the lot frontage/build-to
line, except that up to fifty percent (50%) may be set back to provide
outside civic space along the frontage; and building orientation to
the street (front entrance features and active street level uses).
e.
Enhanced facade: Enhanced facades create quality and visual
interest along the building frontage and typically accompany street-front
building orientation. In general, enhanced facade design includes
primary entrances [1 entrance at least every fifty (50) linear feet];
transparency [at least seventy percent (70%) windows between two (2)
feet and ten (10) feet from street level; twenty-five percent (25%)
to forty percent (40%) on each story above street level]; limited
blank wall space [walls with no windows and doors: no more than thirty
(30) linear feat and six hundred (600) square feet]; pedestrian-scale
ornamentation and details, especially associated with primary entrances
or to animate any blank-wall space.
2.
Building Materials. All buildings shall be constructed according to the following materials standards. Material use by category, primary, secondary or trim/accent as identified in Table D-2, will be dependent on the place type identified in Subsection (A)(2) and in accordance with the percentage specified in Subsection D(2)(a) through (D)(2)(c).

Parking And Access.
a.
Restricted Access: No vehicular access is allowed along the
block face; access is provided from a side street or rear alley/parking
lot. Typically applied to A Streets.
b.
Limited Access: No more than one (1) vehicular access point
is allowed along the block face; additional access is provided from
a side street, rear alley or adjacent B or C Street types.
c.
On-street Parking: Parking along the block face within the right-of-way
can be parallel or angled depending on the size of the right-of-way.
Typically, on-street parking is associated with A Street types to
encourage a higher level of pedestrian connectivity.
d.
Secondary Parking: Parking that is behind the building. Parking
may be accessed by a driveway from the block face or from a side street
or adjacent street.
e.
Small Lot: A parking field that does not exceed twenty-five
(25) parking spaces, that may be in front of, beside or behind the
building and extensively landscaped to buffer parking from view.

[Ord. No. 03032014A §XII, 3-3-2014]
A.
The presumption established by this Chapter is that all legitimate uses of land are approved within at least one (1) zoning district in the City limits. Therefore, because the list of approved uses set forth in Section 400.502 (Approved Land Use Table) cannot be all inclusive, those uses that are listed shall be interpreted by the City Planner to include similar uses that have similar impacts to the uses listed.
B.
Notwithstanding Subsection (A) of this Section, all uses that are not listed in Section 400.502 (Approved Land Use Table), even given the interpretation mandated by Subsection (A) of this Section, are prohibited. Nor shall Section 400.502 (Approved Land Use Table) be interpreted to allow a use in one zoning district when the use in question is more closely related to another specified use that is approved in other zoning districts.
C.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions, the
following uses are specifically prohibited in all districts:
1.
Any use that involves the manufacture, handling, sale, distribution,
or storage of any highly combustible or explosive materials in violation
of the City's Fire Prevention Code.
2.
Stockyards, slaughterhouses, and rendering plants.
3.
Use of a travel trailer as a temporary or permanent residence.
[Ord. No. 03032014A §XIII, 3-3-2014]
A.
Permitted Uses. Uses identified with a "P" in the Approved Land Use Table, Section 400.502, are permitted in each respective district, provided that uses comply with all other applicable standards of this Chapter. No building or premises improved or unimproved shall be used, and no building shall be hereafter erected, converted, enlarged, reconstructed, or structurally altered, except for a purpose permitted in the district in which the building or land use is located as shown in the Approved Land Use Table, Section 400.502, except for:
C.
Prohibited Uses. Uses identified with a "-" in the Approved Land Use Table, Section 400.502, are expressly prohibited in the subject district. Uses that are not listed may also be prohibited; determination of whether an unlisted use may be permitted shall be made by the City Planner in accordance with Chapter 400, Article XII, Administration and Enforcement, of this Code.
Editor's Note: The Approved Land Use Table is included as an
attachment to this Chapter.
