Proposed Zoning District for Transit Corridors

​Zoning is our primary tool to address and affect land use. The best starting point and may be the most effective agent to realize the land use-related goals of the Master Plan is by amending or changing, the Unified Development Code (UDC). 

The idea to create a new district with increased density was first brought up by a small group of Councilmembers in 2017. The idea was then developed by staff under the guidance of the Planning Commission's Ordinance Revisions Committee, into a rough draft. The​ draft ordinance amendment creating the district, establishing the uses and development standards of this new district, was presented to the Planning Commission on Oct. 1, 2019. Work paused until City Council asked on Nov. 16, 2020, for a final draft of the proposed district to be presented to them by June 2021.
