UCP Implementation Approach
Lessons Learned • Renewed and heightened focus on pedestrian mobility. • Pedestrian realm (sidewalks and crosswalks) • Building / sidewalk relationship UCP
Elements Under Consideration UCP • Pedestrian cross section
Elements Under Consideration • Build-within-zone • Minimum built frontage • Minimum transparency • Sidewalk entrances • Driveway spacing standards UCP
Illustration Edge of Pedestrian Realm 10’ Build Within Zone Property Line 75% Built Frontage Property Line 25% Curb UCP 75% Min. Transparency 5’ Pedestrian Zone 10’ Planting & Utilities
Issues to Consider • Mandatory vs. incentivized • Geographic application • Neighborhood protection UCP
Mandatory vs. Incentivized • Mandatory elements – all corridors • Pedestrian realm standard • Driveway spacing • Other elements may be incentivized UCP
Mandatory vs. Incentivized • Economic / market implications • Direct costs • Market / risk (“1,321’ effect”) • Opportunities for incentives • Urban corridor standards • Obtainable benefits • Increased buildable area • Reduced parking requirements UCP
Uptown Other Corridor Pedestrian Core District University Geographic Application UCP
Geographic Application • Uptown • Incentivized • “Other corridor” • Incentivized • Linked to neighborhood protection • Core pedestrian district • Possibly mandatory elements & “automatic” benefits • Also possible additional incentives UCP
Neighborhood Protections • Angular plane • Tied to incentives • Single family share threshold for withholding incentives • “Other corridor” areas only UCP Angular Plane Lot Line
Upcoming Process • Ordinance & Policy Drafting • Defined Review Process • Mixed Use / TOD Committee • Planning Commission • City Council Committee on Regulation, Nbhd Protection and Development • City Council UCP
