Form-Based Zoning

The city’s zoning code includes a mapped mandatory form-based zoning district (§4.4.13). This district includes four sub-districts all with permissible land uses, form standards, building frontage types, façade design standards, parking standards, and landscaping standards designed to ensure walkability and mixture of uses occur. 

Group Housing

The city's land development code defines and regulates two types of community residences: family community residences and transitional community residences. The distinguishing characteristic is the length of stay and not the number of residents (Appendix A). Operators can apply for an exemption to occupancy limits and separation requirements (§4.3.3(I)).
