[Added 1-18-2011 by Ord.
No. 1601]
A. The DT
Downtown Overlay District enables the adoption of special performance
and development standards in combination with site development regulations
of a base district for areas located within and around the downtown
district of the City of Papillion. The district recognizes the importance
of the historic pattern of development within the downtown area and
provides for its conservation. The district is intended to guide new
construction and to promote small-scale pedestrian-oriented development
to service both the surrounding businesses and residential areas.
B. The character
of the Downtown Overlay District reflects a dense, pedestrian-oriented
building pattern with structures set upon or near the front lot line,
a high ratio of building coverage to site, and a two-story building
facade pattern that is architecturally articulated to the scale of
a traditional pedestrian environment.
C. The Downtown
Overlay District shall maintain the downtown area as a mixed-use village
center that incorporates residential, civic, commercial, and industrial
uses.
A. The Downtown
Overlay District applies to an area within the City of Papillion's
zoning jurisdiction that is bound on the north by Sixth Street, on
the east by the parcels fronting on the east side of Jefferson Street,
on the west by the parcels fronting on the west side of Adams Street,
and on the south by Lincoln Street.
B. The provisions
of the overlay district shall apply to all new development, significant
redevelopment, or significant additions or enlargements on each lot
or site.
A. A special use permit is required for any of the following actions
within the Downtown Overlay District:
[Amended 5-3-2016 by Ord.
No. 1719]
(1)
Construction of any new principal structure excluding single-family
residences.
(2)
Construction of any accessory structure associated with a commercial,
industrial, or civic use.
(3)
Significant additions to existing buildings that change the
existing building footprint by more than 20%. Additions to single-family
residential structures that maintain the residential nature of the
structure are exempt.
(4)
Demolition of any principal structure.
(5)
Removal of trees located within the public right-of-way unless
such removal is ordered by the Public Works Director.
(6)
Addition of a new parking facility or expansion of an existing
parking facility. Parking facilities include parking lots and parking
structures. The following actions shall be exempt from this requirement:
(b)
A single vehicle parking pad.
(c)
Interior improvements and/or reconfigurations of an existing
parking facility.
B. The special use permit shall be reviewed to ensure that the following
criteria are met:
(1)
New construction shall be consistent with a pedestrian-oriented
development pattern. Pedestrian-oriented development is characterized
by dense building patterns with a high ratio of building coverage
to site, two-story building facades, and a mix of uses.
(2)
New constructions and additions shall blend with the architectural
character of surrounding properties with respect to building materials,
footprint, and height.
(3)
The development of two-story mixed-use buildings with commercial
or office uses on the first story and residential uses on the second
story shall be encouraged as appropriate within the commercial areas
along Washington Street, Second Street, and Adams Street.
C. Consolidation of multiple special use permits.
(1)
If special use permits are mandated by this article and Table
205-38, the requests may be consolidated into a single application.
(2)
If multiple actions that require special use permits per §
205-118A are proposed, the requests may be consolidated into a single application.
[Amended 12-3-2019 by Ord. No. 1855]
A. Permitted use. Single-family detached residential is a permitted
use on any lot that is zoned LC Limited Commercial, CC Community Commercial,
or GC General Commercial, provided that: such lot is located within
the Downtown Overlay District, the structure existed as of the effective
date of Ordinance No. 1601, and such existing structure has the appearance
of a single-family detached residence. The use of any LC Limited Commercial,
CC Community Commercial, or GC General Commercial lot for single-family
detached residential shall not preclude such lot from also being operated
with any use permitted in the corresponding zoning district. A mix
of residential and commercial or office uses within the structure
is encouraged.
B. Repair of existing single-family detached residential structures
on LC Limited Commercial, CC Community Commercial, or GC General Commercial
Lots. Any existing single-family residential structure established
on any lot that is zoned LC Limited Commercial, CC Community Commercial,

or other calamity, except flood damages, may be repaired and reconstructed,
provided that such lot is within the Downtown Overlay District. Repair
and reconstruction within the designated floodplain shall be in conformance
with floodplain development regulations.
