Roselli, Planning and Zoning Board Town Attorney Date: January 24, 2006 Re: Amended Development Standards for "C-2" and "PCD" Zoning Districts The purpose of this Memorandum is to summarize the draft code amendments to Chapter 78 of the Village's Zoning Code which were prepared fo�lowing the CounciPs declaration of Zoning-in-Progress 2005 and are contained in a draft ordinance for the Village Council's review and consideration. Section 78-4 �Definitions."� The following definitions of: 1. basement r� ��. 2. building, height of \ 3. floor 4. highest adjacent grade 5. story 6 turret (new definition) � 7. Appurtenant use (new definition) have been amended (or added) to this Code section to clarify the intent of the Village Council in calculating building height. � Section 78-143 "Schedule of site requirements" This Section contains tables summarizing the site requirements in the various zoning districts, and is the only place in the Code where certain height requirements are specified. For example, this table currently states that the height limitations in the C-2 districts are 5 stories or 70 feet, but it does not address the possibility of increased building for a PCD within the C-2. This table has been amended (in the draft ordinance), to reduce the allowable building height in the C-2 from 5 stories and 70 feet to 4 stories or 50 feet. In addition, a provision was added to reduce the permitted height allowed in the PCD of up to 6 stores or 84 feet to 5 stories or 70 feet. The proposed new heights for the C-2 of 4 stories/50 feet and for the PCD of 5 stories/70 feet, is but one of many different height requirements or combination of requirements, that the Council may select if a change is desired, and these heights have been inserted in the draft ordinance for discussion purposes only. � �t�� � ��� . Mike Couzzo, Village Manager �1� �,� ,�- January 24, 2006 .,� �5 5 „� Page 2 �t?�) � � 5�� Section 78-177 Permitted buildinq heiqht (in the C-2) A new subsection (f) was added so that the Code now includes a specific text height limitation for the C-2 district, and the C-2 height limitation is not just shown in the tabfe in Section 78-143 anymore. The subsection is consistent with the amended table in Section 78-143, pertaining to the C-2, and provides that the maximum height in the C-2 district, shall be 4 stories or 50 feet above the average finished grade, provided that the Council may increase the building height of a building in a PCD which is permitted as a special exception use in the C-2, of up to 5 stories or 70 feet. Again, these revised heights are inserted for discussion purposes only, and are but one way to correct the current inconsistencies in the Code with respect to allowable heights in the C-2 an PCD districts. Section 78-255 "General requirements and special requlations "(for PCD uses) Several changes have been made to this Section. First, a minor revision was made to the lengthy term "planned unit developments" currently used throughout this chapter, which has been shortened to the abbreviation "PCD" in this section and other sections of the Code. More importantly, the current maximum height allowed in a PCD which (at the discretion of the Council) may be increased up to 6 stories or 84 feet based upon the un- codified ordinance, has been changed. This height has been reduced for discussion purposes, from 6 stories/84 feet to 5 stories/70 feef. In addition, 10 criteria have been added as guidelines for the Council to use when considering whether to grant a request for an increase in the height to the new maximum height of 5 stories or 70 feet. These guidelines are similar to the criteria considered when granting a variance or special exception, and are a legal requirement for the exercise of the Council's discretion in increasing the building height. In addition to the height regulations, additional requirements for PCD uses have been added for your consideration. Many of these regulations were conceptually discussed at prior meetings, but were never decided upon. Therefore, these provisions are included in this draft so that the Council can decide which, if any of these provisions, to include in the PCD regulations. The new provisions include, story height requirements at the sidewalk level, story height requirements above the sidewalk floor level, provisions regarding parking garages and meuanines, and permitted building usage on the first story or sidewalk IeveL Mike Couzzo, Village Manager January 24, 2006 Page 3 Certain provisions such as the density and open space requirements were unnecessarily repeated many times in this Section, and therefore the redundant provisions were deleted for clarity purposes. The density has not been changed and remains at no more than 18 dwelling units per gross acre. The open space requirements also remain unchanged. Two new provisions in this Section were added. The first provides a minimum floor area requirement for residential units of 1200 square feet. The second requirement clarifies and provides for the set back requirements for PCD's, which are the same as for C-2 district, and which are set forth in the Table in Section 78-143. Section 78-256 "Propertv development requlations." Again, the term "planned unit development" was abbreviated in this Section to read "PCD." Also, a provision was added to prohibit outdoor storage facilities in a PCD. Redundant provisions regarding density and maximum site coverage which are again repeated in this Section were deleted. Section 78-257 "Desiqn criteria." Again, the term "planned unit development" was abbreviated in this Section to read "PCD." A new provision was added to prohibit plantings in excess of 2�h' feet in any visibility triangle, Section 78-303 "Visibilitv trianqle" A new Section 78-303 was created to require that visibility triangles of 25 feet in both directions from the point of intersecting lot lines be maintained at all intersections, and that plantings in excess of 2�/2' feet in any visibility triangle.
