Summary: This Ordinance amends Chapter 11, by adding Section 11.26 to create a Transit

friendly, high density, environmentally and economically sustainable, transit-oriented areas
which allow a complementary mix of land uses. The Ordinance establishes three sub-districts
within the TOD zoning district. The TOD-Mixed Use (TOD-MU) district encourages high-
density, mixed-use, and pedestrian-oriented development that supports transit usage. The TOD-
Residential (TOD-R) district allows for moderate- to high-density residential development with
some allowance for limited commercial uses. The TOD-Employment (TOD-E) district allows
for moderate- to high-density office, light industrial and institutional development with some
allowance for limited commercial uses. The Ordinance sets forth performance standards,
permitted uses, lot and building standards, parking standards, and landscaping and open space
standards. The Ordinance also sets forth standards related to supplemental analysis or study,
architecture, signage, lighting, mechanical equipment and tree replacement.
Effective Date: This Ordinance shall take effect upon publication.
