17.65.010 Purpose.
The purpose of the Central Point transit oriented development (TOD) district is to promote efficient and sustainable land development and the increased use of transit as required by the Oregon Transportation Planning Rule. (Ord. 1815 §1(part), Exh. B(part), 2000).
17.65.020 Area of application.
These regulations apply to the Central Point TOD district and corridor. The boundaries of these two areas are shown on the official city comprehensive plan and zoning maps.
A. A development application within the TOD district shall comply with the requirements of this chapter.
B. At the discretion of the applicant, a development application within the TOD corridor shall be subject to:
1. The normal base zone requirements as identified on the official zoning map and contained in this code; or
2. The TOD corridor requirements contained in this chapter. (Ord. 1815 §1(part), Exh. B(part), 2000).
17.65.030 Conflict with other regulations.
When there is a conflict between the provisions of this chapter and other requirements of this title, the provisions of this chapter shall govern. (Ord. 1815 §1(part), Exh. B(part), 2000).
17.65.040 Land use--TOD district.
Four special zone district categories are applied in the Central Point TOD corridor. The characteristics of these zoning districts are summarized in subsections A through D of this section.
A. Residential (TOD).
1. LMR--Low Mix Residential. This is the lowest density residential zone in the district. Single-family detached residences are intended to be the primary housing type, however attached single-family, and lower density multifamily housing types are also allowed and encouraged.
2. MMR--Medium Mix Residential. This medium density residential zone focuses on higher density forms of residential living. The range of housing types includes higher density single-family and a variety of multifamily residences. Low impact commercial activities may also be allowed.
3. HMR--High Mix Residential/Commercial. This is the highest density residential zone intended to be near the center of the TOD district. High density forms of multifamily housing are encouraged along with complementary ground floor commercial uses. Low impact commercial activities may also be allowed. Low density residential uses are not permitted.
B. Employment (TOD).
1. EC--Employment Commercial. Retail, service, and office uses are primarily intended for this district. Activities which are oriented and complementary to pedestrian travel and transit are encouraged. Development is expected to support pedestrian access and transit use. Automobile oriented activities are generally not included in the list of permitted uses. Residential uses above ground floor commercial uses are also consistent with the purpose of this zone.
2. GC--General Commercial. Commercial and industrial uses are primarily intended for this district. Activities which are oriented and complementary to pedestrian travel and transit are encouraged. Residential uses above ground floor commercial uses are also consistent with the purpose of this zone.
C. C--Civic (TOD). Civic uses such as government offices, schools, and community centers are the primary uses intended in this district. These uses can play an important role in the vitality of the TOD district.
D. OS--Open Space (TOD). Because the density of development will generally be higher than other areas in the region, providing open space and recreation opportunities for the residents and employees in the TOD district becomes very important. This zone is intended to provide a variety of outdoor and recreation amenities. (Ord. 1867 §4(part), 2006; Ord. 1815 §1(part), Exh. B(part), 2000).
17.65.050 Zoning regulations--TOD district.
A. Permitted Uses. Permitted uses in Table 1 are shown with a "P." These uses are allowed if they comply with the applicable provisions of this title. They are subject to the same application and review process as other permitted uses identified in this title.
B. Limited Uses. Limited uses in Table 1 are shown with an "L." These uses are allowed if they comply with the specific limitations described in this chapter and the applicable provisions of this title. They are subject to the same application and review process as other permitted uses identified in this title.
C. Conditional Uses. Conditional uses in Table 1 are shown with a "C." These uses are allowed if they comply with the applicable provisions of this title. They are subject to the same application and review process as other conditional uses identified in this title.
D. Density. The allowable residential density and employment building floor area are specified in Table 2.
E. Dimensional Standards. The dimensional standards for lot size, lot dimensions, building setbacks, and building height are specified in Table 2.
F. Development Standards.
1. Housing Mix. The required housing mix for the TOD district is shown in Table 2.
2. Accessory Units. Accessory units are allowed as indicated in Table 1. Accessory units shall meet the following standards:
a. A maximum of one accessory unit is permitted per lot;
b. The primary residence and/or the accessory unit on the lot must be owner-occupied;
c. An accessory unit shall have a maximum floor area of eight hundred square feet;
d. The applicable zoning standards in Table 2 shall be satisfied.

17.65.060 Land use--TOD corridor.
Four special zone district categories are applied in the Central Point TOD corridor. The characteristics of these zoning districts are summarized in subsections A through D of this section.
A. Residential (TOD).
1. LMR--Low Mix Residential. This is the lowest density residential zone in the district. Single-family detached residences are intended to be the primary housing type, however attached single-family, and lower density multifamily housing types are also allowed and encouraged. The housing types within this zone are intended to support pedestrian-friendly access beyond five hundred feet of the primary transit route.
2. MMR--Medium Mix Residential. This medium density residential zone focuses on higher density forms of residential living. The range of housing types includes higher density single-family and a variety of multifamily residences and is intended to support pedestrian-friendly access within five hundred feet of the primary transit route. Low impact commercial activities may also be allowed.
B. Employment (TOD).
1. EC--Employment Commercial. Retail, service, and office uses are primarily intended for this district. Activities which are oriented and complementary to pedestrian travel and transit are encouraged. Development is expected to support pedestrian access and transit use. Automobile-oriented activities are generally not included in the list of permitted uses. Residential uses above ground floor commercial uses are also consistent with the purpose of this zone.
2. GC--General Commercial. Commercial and industrial uses are primarily intended for this district. Activities which are oriented and complementary to pedestrian travel and transit are encouraged. Residential uses above ground floor commercial uses are also consistent with the purpose of this zone. (Ord. 1867 §5(part), 2006; Ord. 1815 §1(part), Exh. B(part), 2000).
