{00460777;1}14 <br />Refinement Plan Policies <br />River Road‐Santa Clara Neighborhood Plan <br />Although none of the policies in the Neighborhood Plan are mandatory approval criteria for individual <br />land use applications, the proposed Code Amendments implement and are consistent with policies in <br />the Neighborhood Plan. <br />Policy 1.4 Regulatory Environment: Strive for a local regulatory environment that is supportive of <br />economic development in line with neighborhood vision (such as creating small commercial nodes). <br />The Code Amendments allow for the display and sale of agricultural products grown offsite on R‐1 zoned <br />properties located within the city limits and within the Neighborhood Plan Boundary. This expands <br />opportunities for urban farmers to collectively sell produce, in line with the neighborhood vision and the <br />actions that support this policy. <br />Policy 11.2 Well Designed Built Environment: Update design standards through legislative updates to <br />local land use regulations so that they provide for gradual transitions between different uses and scales <br />and incorporate pedestrian scale design through building design, size, scale, and site layout <br />requirements. <br />Policy 14.1 Compatibility Transitions: Enhance compatibility through development standards such as <br />height and scale transitions, setbacks, buffering with trees, and window offsets between adjacent <br />properties that are zoned differently through legislative updates to local land use regulations. <br />The proposed Code Amendments implement these Neighborhood Plan policies by providing transition <br />standards between different uses/scales/zones and incorporating pedestrian scale design through <br />building design, size, scale, and site layout requirements for C‐2 zoned properties within both city limits <br />and the Neighborhood Plan Boundary as follows: <br />Design Standards: <br />o Transition Standards: Apply transition standards (setbacks, landscaping, and/or fencing) <br />to new buildings and building additions that increase the square footage of floor area by <br />20% or more for any development on property abutting Low Density Residential (R‐1) <br />zoned land. <br />o Building Orientation: Require buildings fronting River Road to provide a main entrance <br />facing that street or to the corner where River Road and another street intersect. <br />o Building Façade: Increase the minimum percentage of the street‐facing building façade <br />that must be within the maximum front yard setback, from 25% to 80%. <br />o Building Walls/Window Coverage: Require minimum percentage of windows along the <br />ground floor of street‐facing façades and prohibit blank walls of more than 20 linear feet <br />of street‐facing façades. <br />o Weather Protection: Require weather protection features over all building entrances. <br />Building Height: Limit building height to 65 feet (current limit is 120 feet). <br />The proposed Code Amendments also implement these policies by prohibiting the establishment of <br />certain uses on C‐2 zoned properties located within both the city limits and within the River Road‐Santa <br />Attachment D <br />March 12, 2024 JEO Public Hearing - Item 1CC Agenda Page 175
