The commercial district mixed use incentives (CDMUI) are intended to encourage the increase in housing types and stock by providing additional permitted uses and flexible standards when residential uses are incorporated with this incentive program. Furthermore, the CDMUI is established to encourage positive development that provides a mix of services and light industry with a residential component, and foster economic development opportunities within the city.
(Ord. 1510 § 1 (Att. A), 2015)
Development which incorporates the commercial district mixed use incentives shall meet all applicable provisions of this title and all other rules, regulations and provisions of the LMC, including the following:
A. 
Development of residential units shall be in conjunction with any incentive provided herein.
B. 
For the purposes of the CDMUI, development includes:
1. 
Attached or on-site residential unit(s) shall be constructed with other allowed uses. This allowance for additional mixed occupancy and/or other incentives is to accommodate the inclusion of residential units. Residential units do not include transient accommodations (hotels and motels or similar less than monthly rental);
2. 
Dwellings, including rental apartments, multifamily, live-work units, single-dwelling and condominiums, shall be a gross floor area of one square foot of dwelling to one square foot of commercial or light industrial use found within the listed permitted uses;
3. 
Common areas may include: loading areas, main entrance, restrooms, and other shared rooms (office and conference room(s));
4. 
The primary function is to accommodate the mixed uses. Site development shall include consideration of activities that may conflict with equipment/pedestrian or other travel, odors, noise, and vibration;
5. 
Site and/or development review shall be conducted pursuant to LMC § 21.09.040, Full administrative review of applications;
6. 
Development standards in each commercial district shall apply to the CDMUI zoning district, except that a CDMUI building height may expand to a maximum of 50 feet. Conversion of the residential units and/or area is prohibited, and at the expense of the applicant, the city may require a notice to title to ensure the residential units remain with the incentive provided by this section. When located in the shoreline jurisdiction, the shoreline master program shall govern.
