[Ord. No. 3907 §1, 6-22-2015]
A. The purpose of the service revitalization "SR" regulations are to
encourage development of small non-residentially zoned parcels (less
than one (1) acre) by allowing for a greater variety of uses and building
types than would normally be permitted and allow greater flexibility
in site planning, so as to promote service oriented growth within
specified locations. It is intended that service revitalization developments
should be well integrated in terms of land use, functional systems,
and major design elements such as architecture, access and infrastructure.
Design standards should be supportive of a cohesive development while
accentuating the sense of community.
B. Service revitalization development regulations provide the City with
flexibility in consideration of service oriented uses and enable it
to adjust development regulations to particular site conditions. Service
revitalization developments may be developed only in accordance with
approved site plans and conditions enumerated in ordinances for particular
developments.
C. Unless specifically provided herein, the regulations and performance
standards pertaining to the Campus Office "CO" Zoning District apply
for all uses in the service revitalization developments.
D. Interpretation. The following standards are intended to supplement those set forth in Article
VIII and Article
XI of this Chapter. Only where particular specifications are set forth herein do those specifications override those set forth in Article
VIII and Article
XI of this Chapter.
[Ord. No. 3907 §1, 6-22-2015]
