23.313.010 Purpose.

The purpose of this chapter is to establish several mixed-use zoning districts in the city. These districts provide for the compatible integration of residential, commercial, office, and/or industrial uses on a single project site. These districts are consistent with and implement the city’s following General Plan land use categories: residential mixed-use, commercial mixed-use, office mixed-use, light industrial, local town center, and regional town center. [Ord. 1-2022 § 3 (Exh. A); Ord. 4-2017 § 3 (Exh. B); Ord. 3-2017 § 3 (Exh. A); Ord. 12-2011 § 3 (Exh. A); Ord. 27-2008 § 1 (Exh. A § 2.5.010)].

23.313.020 Characteristics of the mixed-use zoning districts.

The following descriptions of each mixed-use zoning district identify the characteristic uses, intensity of uses, and level of development intended for that district:

A. Residential Mixed-Use (RMU) Zoning District. This district is intended to designate property for the development of medium and high density housing (between 6.1 and 40 dwelling units per acre) that may incorporate office and/or commercial services. While the predominant use of the development is residential, the city encourages the vertical and/or horizontal integration of commercial and/or office uses that are compatible with the residential development.

B. Commercial Mixed-Use (CMU) Zoning District. This district is intended to designate property for vibrant commercial and mixed-use development. While a predominantly commercial district, the CMU category is designed to provide for the integration of retail and service commercial uses with office and/or residential uses. In multiple-story buildings, retail uses are the predominant use on the ground floor.

C. Office Professional Mixed-Use (OPMU) Zoning District. This district is intended to designate property primarily for the development of larger office buildings and business parks with supporting retail and service uses. The predominant use is office, but commercial, service and residential uses may be integrated into office buildings or located horizontally in freestanding buildings. This district also allows some standalone uses that are not traditional or predominant office uses, such as hospitals, banks/financial institutions, hotels/motels, and recreation, education, and public assembly uses.

D. Office Industrial Mixed-Use (OIMU) Zoning District. This district is intended to designate property for a wide range of office and light industrial development. The OIMU district is intended for the seamless integration of office and light industrial uses with supporting retail and service uses. Offices may be developed in an office park setting, but most office and light industrial development stands alone. Commercial and other support services may be integrated vertically and/or horizontally in this district, but the predominant use of integrated developments is office and/or light industrial. This district also allows some standalone uses that are not traditional or predominant office or industrial uses, such as hospitals, banks/financial institutions, and recreation, education, and public assembly uses.

E. Light Industrial Business Park (LIBP) Zoning District. This district is intended to designate property for the development of research and development, industrial, and/or manufacturing activities that occur primarily within an enclosed building. Development in this district may be integrated into a business park or campus setting with supporting retail services. This district also allows warehousing activities or distribution centers. Limited office and retail service uses may be integrated into the predominantly industrial use of the property horizontally or vertically. This district also allows public/quasi-public uses by right.

F. Village Center (VC) Zoning District. This district is intended to provide centers of activity that are within an easy walking distance from neighborhood homes and to provide local-serving commercial opportunities. A network of sidewalks, bicycle trails, and transit routes provides easy nonvehicular access to these centers, and buildings within this zone are appropriately scaled to fit in the neighborhood context and are placed to encourage the active use of public spaces and generate pedestrian activity.

G. Local Town Center (LTC) Zoning District. This district is intended to provide vibrant activity centers that serve the major retail and entertainment needs for a collection of neighborhoods that form districts as defined by the city’s community building block concept of the General Plan. Nightlife is an important component of this district. An extensive network of sidewalks, bicycle trails, and transit routes will connect these centers to the neighborhoods. The local town centers created in this zone will provide pedestrian-oriented gathering places.

H. Regional Town Center (RTC). This district is intended to provide locations for regional-serving retail, office, and residential uses that provide a vibrant mixed-use setting that fosters positive day and nighttime activity. Development may feature dynamic taller buildings and building complexes (over four stories in height) that are scaled appropriately to create a comfortable pedestrian environment and be compatible with adjacent neighborhoods. Mixed-use development can be designed horizontally (e.g., a grocery store next to a residential building) or vertically (e.g., a grocery store as the ground floor use with residential units above). Design characteristics include public plazas and other gathering places, open storefronts with expansive windows, and a rich mix of uses and tenants. [Ord. 1-2022 § 3 (Exh. A); Ord. 4-2017 § 3 (Exh. B); Ord. 3-2017 § 3 (Exh. A); Ord. 12-2011 § 3 (Exh. A); Ord. 4-2011 § 3 (Exh. A); Ord. 27-2008 § 1 (Exh. A § 2.5.020)].

23.313.030 Allowed land uses and permit requirements.

Table 23.313-1 identifies allowed uses and corresponding permit requirements for the mixed-use districts subject to compliance with Chapter 23.304 RCMC (Land Use Classification) and all other provisions of this title. Descriptions/definitions of the land uses can be found in Article 11 of this title (Definitions). The specific use regulations column in the table identifies the specific chapter or section where additional regulations for that use type are located within this title.

Use regulations in the table are shown with a representative symbol by use classification listing: “P” symbolizes uses allowed by right, “AUP” symbolizes uses that require approval of an administrative use permit, “C” symbolizes uses that require approval of a conditional use permit, and “N” symbolizes uses that are not permitted.

23.313.040 Development standards.

The following development standards are applicable to the mixed-use zoning districts. These standards, along with other development standards (e.g., landscaping requirements, parking standards) in this title and citywide design guidelines, are intended to assist property owners and project designers in understanding the city’s minimum requirements and expectations for high quality development. Where identified, the downtown shall be that area identified as the downtown planning area in the city’s General Plan and as illustrated in Figure 23.313-1.

Figure 23.313-1: Downtown Planning Area

Development standards for the village center (VC), local town center (LTC), and regional town center (RTC) zoning districts are listed in Article 5 of this title (Form-Based Zoning Provisions). Because of their unique character and location within the city, these zoning districts benefit from the application of these form-based standards. The Downtown Planning Area is denoted by the outlined dark-orange colored area on the map.

Notes:

1. VC, LTC, and RTC development standards are provided in Article 5 of this title, Form-Based Zoning Provisions.

2. The minimum and maximum density standards are only applicable to mixed-use and integrated developments that include residential uses. Residential projects shall include a minimum of four units. The director may approve residential densities below 10 dwelling units per acre if the units are located above retail or office uses.

3. Predominant use standards for the OPMU and OIMU districts are intended to establish maximum square footage allowances for those uses in Table 23.313-1 that are allowed only as accessory or secondary to a primary use. Both OPMU and OIMU districts allow some standalone uses that are not traditional or predominant office uses (e.g., hospitals, banks/financial institutions, hotels/motels, recreation, education, and public assembly uses). This standard does not apply to standalone uses allowed by right or with a use permit consistent with Table 23.313-1.

4. Excludes square footage of structured parking.

5. Includes residential uses and square footage. See Article 11 of this title for definition of floor area ratio (FAR).

6. At no time shall any portion of the structure be located within a designated public utility easement.

7. Garages may also be accessed from an alley with a minimum three-foot rear setback.

8. Consistent with the setback provisions in the design guidelines, the city requires new commercial and mixed use buildings to be located in close proximity to the street for improved relationship to the street and pedestrians. Therefore, for lots less than 15 acres in size, at least 50 percent of the lot width is occupied by primary building frontage and/or pedestrian features located between zero and 30 feet from the front property line. Similarly, for lots 15 acres and greater in size, at least 50 percent of the lot width is occupied by primary building frontage and/or pedestrian features located between zero and 80 feet from the front property line. The following figure, from the design guidelines, is provided to help illustrate this concept:

9. A zero lot line home allows a zero side-yard minimum setback on one side with a corresponding 10-foot minimum side-yard setback on the other side.

10. The maximum height may be increased in conjunction with design review when the proposed structure includes a parking structure or a combination of uses (e.g., commercial with residential and/or office) in the same structure.

11. While there is no height maximum in the downtown, the regulations of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) limit the height of structures to between 150 and 350 feet based on location. See the safety element of the General Plan for more information. FAA approval is required for all structures over 150 feet in height.

12. Accessory dwelling units are subject to the square footage limitations provided within this zoning code (see RCMC 23.901.060). Accessory dwelling units may be located above the garage.
