B. Community Benefit Projects. Notwithstanding the maximum building height specified in subsection
A above, no building constructed in this zone after the effective date of the ordinance enacting this chapter shall exceed a height of 45 feet unless the project qualifies as a Community Benefit Project or a Community Benefit Housing Project, and the Planning Commission expressly makes all of the following findings:
1. Demonstrated
Need. The applicant has adequately demonstrated a need for the project
to exceed 45 feet in building height that is related to the project's
benefit to the community, or due to site constraints, or in order
to achieve desired architectural qualities;
2. Architecture
and Design. The project will be exemplary in its design;
3. Livability.
If the project includes residential units, the project will provide
amenities to its residents which ensure the livability of the project
with particular attention to good interior design features such as
the amount of light and air, or ceiling plate heights;
4. Sensitivity
to Context. The project design will complement the setting and the
character of the neighboring properties with sensitivity to any adjacent
federal, state, and City Landmarks or any nearby designated Historic
Resources, including City-designated Structures of Merit.
C. Buildings Adjacent to Residential Zones. The building height of a building which will be immediately adjacent to a residential zone shall not exceed the height allowed in the most restrictive adjacent residential zone for that part of the structure constructed within a distance of 30 feet or one-half the height of the proposed structure, whichever is less, provided, however, a project which qualifies as a Community Benefit Project or a Community Benefit Housing Project under subsection
B above need not comply with this requirement.
D. Timing
and Procedure for Projects Requiring the Planning Commission Building
Height Findings.
1. Conceptual Design Review. Prior to the Planning Commission considering an application for a Community Benefit Project or a Community Benefit Housing Project pursuant to this section, a project shall receive conceptual design review by the Historic Landmarks Commission or the Architectural Board of Review as required by Title
22.
2. Planning
Commission Consideration of Findings.
a. Design Review Projects. If a project only requires design review by the ABR or HLC under Title
22, the Planning Commission shall review and consider the building height findings of this section after conceptual design review and before consideration of the project by the HLC or ABR for Project Design approval.
b. Staff Hearing Officer Projects. If a project requires the review
and approval of a land use permit by the Staff Hearing Officer, the
Planning Commission shall review and consider the building height
findings after conceptual design review pursuant to Title 22, but
before the preparation of a full application for the consideration
of the land use permit by the Staff Hearing Officer.
c. Planning Commission Projects. If a project requires the review and
approval of a land use permit by the Planning Commission, the Planning
Commission shall review and consider the building height findings
after conceptual design review pursuant to Title 22, but before the
preparation of a full application for review by the Development Application
Review Team (DART) and before the consideration of the land use permit
by the Planning Commission.
d. Appeals from the Planning Commission Determination. A decision of the Planning Commission regarding the building height findings is appealable to the City Council pursuant to the provisions of Chapter
1.30 of this code.
