MEMORANDUM
DATE: November 2, 2012
TO: Members of the Planning and Zoning Board
FROM: Pete Wray, Senior City Planner
RE: Eastside & Westside Neighborhoods Character Study
This memo informs and updates members of the Planning and Zoning Board on the status of the
Eastside & Westside Neighborhoods Character Study. The purpose of this Work Session is to
review the efforts to date and discuss next steps.
Key question for the Board:
1. Does the Board have feedback on the information available from Phase 2, draft
Preliminary Strategy Report?
Since August, the staff and consultant team has worked towards developing a strategy to address
the issues identified in Phase1. The primary work product is an illustrated strategy paper
outlining neighborhood character areas and profiles, potential alternative tools or systems, and
recommending specific measures that may then be refined to be considered for adoption.
The staff and consultant team initially developed a list of potential tools to consider for
addressing impacts of additions and new construction in the neighborhoods. First rounds of
discussion group meetings were held in September to gain public input. On October 3, a second
round of discussion group meetings was held to get feedback on potential tools and strategies to
consider.
Based on comments received, a draft preliminary strategy report (attached for your review) was
developed in preparation for review and comment at the public workshop on November 5. An
online visual survey is also available to take from November 1-11.
Next Steps in Process:
Neighborhood workshop, Monday November 5, Lincoln Center (6:00-9:00 PM)
Council work session (11/27/12)

Eastside and Westside Character Study
Study Area
The study area includes the Neighborhood Conservation Low Density (N-C-L) and Neigh-
borhood Conservation Medium Density (N-C-M) zoning districts, which encompass the core
area neighborhoods near Downtown Fort Collins.
Preliminary Strategy Report 1
Introduction The Eastside and Westside Neighborhood Character study seeks to evaluate neigh-
borhood character and change in the core area neighborhoods near Downtown and
identify strategies to retain and enhance their unique character and context. The
study was initiated primarily in response to resident concerns about changes to the
character of the neighborhoods as a result of demolition and new construction.
The community has struggled with issues
related to the compatibility of new infill
development in its older neighborhoods
for many years. Although there have been
incremental changes to regulations and
programs over the years, the community
has not implemented a comprehensive
system to address neighborhood com-
patibility since the 1991 adoption of the
N-C-L and N-C-M zone districts that
encompass the Eastside and Westside
Neighborhoods.
Previous strategies and programs con-
sidered by City Council have included:
• 1995 Design Guidelines
• 2010 FAR Adjustments (rescinded)
• 2011 Landmark Preservation Com-
mission Design Assistance Program
Some past strategies and programs have been criti-
cized as too restrictive or as responding to a problem
that does not exist, or is very limited in scope. Prior
to moving forward with future strategies, the City has
sought to better understand the issues and evaluate the
potential impact of any proposed solutions.
This report documents the study process to date, provides
background information on the character and context of
the neighborhoods, summarizes community comments
and presents initial strategy options for consideration by
City Council. The final draft of the report will be updated
with the results of the November neighborhood workshop
(see page 60) and online visual survey (see page 70)
before posting for City Council consideration prior to a
work session in late November, 2012.
2 Preliminary Strategy Report (Draft 1)
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Study Process Overview
Overall City
Council Goal
In early 2011, a City Council Ad Hoc Committee established the following overall
goal for the Eastside and Westside Neighborhood Character Study:
"Retain and enhance the unique character and context of the neighborhoods
as they continue to change with renovations, additions, and new housing
construction, with a well-supported and effective public process resulting in
appropriate and mutually agreeable solutions."
Evaluate
Existing Context
Using Council’s overall goal as a starting point, the study includes identification
of the existing unique character and context of the neighborhoods as a basis
for evaluation of neighborhood issues and objectives. This process has identi-
fied overall neighborhood features, as well as a series of distinct character areas
within the neighborhoods.
The existing character and context of the neighborhoods is summarized in Part
1: "Neighborhood Profile" on page 5.
Conduct Public Process
Identify Objectives
Community comment generated by the public process for the Eastside and
Westside Neighborhood Character Study has helped identify and clarify overall
objectives for the neighborhoods. They are:
1. Promote awareness of what makes the neighborhoods great
2. Promote compatible redevelopment
3. Maintain a sense of community
4. Encourage communication among neighbors
5. Preserve flexibility for change and reinvestment
6. Acknowledge economic impacts
Identify Issues
The public process has also identified a number of issues with ongoing changes
that may negatively impact existing residents and the unique character and
context of the neighborhoods. They are:
A. Additions and new construction that appear to be overly large in relation to
surrounding houses or the neighborhood
B. New building walls or elements that appear to loom over neighbors
C. Additions or new construction that reduce solar access on neighboring lots
D. Additions or new construction that incorporate incompatible design features
E. Additions or new construction that impact trees and green space
F. New large houses that replace valued older/more affordable homes
The public process is summarized in Part 2: "Community Comments" on page 53.
Evaluate
Strategies
The neighborhood objectives and issues listed above inform an evaluation of the
potential tools described in Part 3: "Potential Tools" on page 75 and provide
a foundation for the strategy options described in Part 4: "Strategy Options" on
page 101. It is important to note that some participants in the public process
have indicated that new construction is not an issue.
Introduction 3
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Project The Eastside and Phases Westside Neighborhood Character Study
is organized into four key phases that will be shaped
by ideas that emerge along the way. At the end of each
phase, City Council will determine how to proceed to the
next phase.
Each phase of the study is briefly summarized below,
and a schedule overview is provided on the next page.
The study is currently in Phase 2.
Phase and Context 1: Understand of the Neighborhoods the Character
In this phase, the City gathered information from
residents and other stakeholders about neighbor-
hood attributes, objectives and issues using a variety
of outreach strategies. Phase 1 was completed in July,
2012. The results are summarized in the Phase 1
Report, and in the Neighborhood Profile and Community
Comments sections of this report.
Phase 2: Develop a Strategy
With Council direction, the City began this phase in
August, 2012. It focuses on development of a strategy to
address the neighborhood objectives and issues iden-
tified in Phase 1. This report summarizes the results
of Phase 2. It will be updated before posting for City
Council consideration prior to a work session in late
November, 2012.
Phase Systems 3: to Develop Implement Tools the and
Strategy
At a work session in late November, 2012, City Council
will determine whether to proceed to Phase 3. They
will also provide direction on which strategy options
described in this report should be further evaluated for
potential development and implementation in Phase 4.
Phase 4: Place the Tools into Action
In this phase, the City Council will hold public hearings
to consider adoption of tools to enhance the unique
character and context of the neighborhoods while ad-
dressing identified neighborhood objectives and issues.
Process Objectives
The Eastside and Westside
Neighborhood Character
Study seeks to:
• Define and understand a
complete range of character-
istics of the neighborhoods,
as a basis for any new initia-
tives. Recognize differences
in the characteristics of the
neighborhoods.
• Use data to define the char-
acteristics of the neighbor-
hoods.
• Conduct a community in-
volvement process for resi-
dents and other stakehold-
ers to evaluate whether any
characteristics warrant new
solutions to help retain and
enhance them.
• Continue the process noted

Preliminary Strategy Report 5
Part 1
Neighborhood The Eastside and Westside Neighborhoods Profile are diverse, with a range of existing
character and contexts. These conditions help shape development and may influence
its perceived compatibility. Understanding neighborhood characteristics, including
physical conditions and dynamic aspects such as past and future changes, is an
important part of this study.
This part of the report outlines existing
conditions in the neighborhoods. It
begins with a summary of features identi-
fied by participants in the public process,
followed by a statistical description of
overall development patterns and unique
subareas, or "character areas" within
the neighborhoods. It concludes with a
description of existing regulations and
information about recent trends in the
neighborhoods.
Community Features Identified
As part of the project’s community engagement process,
members of the community were asked to identify and
describe a series of features which make the neighbor-
hood unique and desirable to live in.
Feedback from residents was largely consistent and
included both physical and social characteristics. The
most common traits participants described include
friendly neighbors, diversity in people and buildings,
and walkability. The following sections summarize
the most commonly identified qualitative and physical
neighborhood features of value to residents.
Valued qualitative aspects of neighborhood character
include:
• Old charm and character of houses
• Friendly/neighborly sense of community
• Family/kid-friendly
• Modest homes
• Socioeconomic diversity
• Evident pride of ownership
• Diversity in ownership patterns
• One of a limited number of neighborhoods in town
that does not have an HOA
6 Preliminary Strategy Report (Draft 1)
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Valued physical aspects of neighborhood character
include:
• Walkability and bikability
• Proximity to amenities (including parks, schools,
playgrounds, Old Town, trolley, CSU, etc.)
• Historic character and homes
• Integrity within blocks
• Wide streets
• Detached sidewalks
• Variety in lot types
• Alleys
• Front porches
• Views through lots
• Not all fenced
• Trees
• Relative low density
• Diversity of house style, age and scale
• Uniqueness of character among Fort Collins neigh-
borhoods
• Less car-oriented design
• Orientation towards neighbors
• Houses designed with sustainability aspects
already built into them (prior to car and air condi-
tioning design)
Part 1: Neighborhood Profile 7
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Neighborhood Patterns As a part of the Eastside and Development Westside Neighborhoods
Character Study, a range of variables related to devel-
opment patterns were analyzed in order to gain an un-
derstanding of the degree of consistency and the range
of diversity that exists. When these variables are con-
sidered at a neighborhood-wide level, they yield an un-
derstanding of the general characteristics of the neigh-
borhood. Then, when these variables are examined at a
finer-grained degree, they suggest a series of smaller
character areas, with shared characteristics.
How This Information May Be Used
The description of neighborhood development patterns
and the features of the subordinate character areas is
information that may be applied in these ways:
1. To inform an understanding of
“context” for property owners
planning improvements
This information may be included in a design
handbook or pattern book, which could be provided
for voluntary use. It would help property owners
plan a project that takes the immediate setting
into consideration.
2. To inform considerations of
variances
The compatibility of a proposed improvement that
requires a variance could be considered using the
descriptions of key features from this analysis.
3. As a basis for applying revised
development standards that are
limited to certain contexts or
subareas.
An individual tool might be focused on one or more
specific character areas where this variable is par-
ticularly important to the sense of compatibility.

About Section the Maps Used in This
The maps included in this report cover a large area,
and may be difficult to read at the size of the report
page. In some cases, a detail of a portion of a map is
provided to help convey the character of the develop-
ment patterns. Large-scale copies of the maps can be
found in "Appendix A: GIS Mapping Data".
The Eastside Neighborhood
Overall Development Patterns
The information that follows is derived from a series
of maps illustrating the development patterns of the
Eastside Neighborhood as a whole. They map informa-
tion related to residential structures within the study
area boundary. The information is extracted from the
City’s GIS system. (Data is as of June, 2012.)
Eastside General Observations
In general, while there is diversity throughout the neigh-
borhood, there are narrow ranges of variation for some
variables. Others occur as subarea contexts, which are
discussed in the next section.
Part 1: Neighborhood Profile 9
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Eastside Neighborhood: Building Age
The Building Age map shows a pattern of development
that begins in the northern portions of the neighbor-
hood, and then builds out to the south and east. Note
that building age in the GIS system tends to reflect
the original building date, but may at times mean an
“effective” building date, if, at a later stage, the property
was significantly altered.
The oldest portions of the Eastside Neighborhood lie
north of E. Myrtle Street and along Peterson, Whedbee
and Smith Streets. The majority of the buildings in this
area date from before 1930, with approximately 50%
dating from before 1910. These areas filled in slowly
between the 1890s and 1920s. Many block faces have
a high degree of similarity in building age in this area.
The south and east portions of the neighborhood, near
Circle and Eastdale Drives, developed in a much shorter
period of time, in the 1950s and 1960s. These areas
tend to have a higher degree of similarity in building
features. Recent construction in the Eastside Neighbor-
hood (the darkest blue color) is relatively sparse and
is scattered throughout the neighborhood, but west of
Stover Street.

Remodels
The Building Remodels map indicates when remodeling
projects occurred, by decade increments. This informa-
tion is from construction permit records, and therefore
may not capture all alterations that property owners
have made. A few remodels are documented from
before 1980 through 1989, more remodels occurred
during the mid-90s, and the majority of remodels were
done after 2000. They are generally evenly distributed
throughout the neighborhood.

the Eastside, the homes are predominantly 1,500 square
feet or less. Of these, many are less than 1,000 square
feet. However, there are several homes that are in the
2,000 square foot range. Only a few are 2,500 square
feet or more. One noticeable concentration of these
larger homes is along Elizabeth Street, east of Stover

Eastside Neighborhood: Floor Area
Ratio
The proportion of house size to lot size is expressed as a
Floor Area Ratio (FAR). On the Eastside, homes generally
have an FAR of 0.25 or less. That is, a typical home has
a floor area that is less than 25% of the land area of its
lot. The next most frequently occurring FAR grouping is
in the 0.26 – 0.30 range. These are scattered through-
out the neighborhood, but occur less frequently along
Elizabeth Street and in the southernmost portions of

are classified in full story and half-story increments. (A
half-story is one in which the floor is partially contained
within the roof form.) Throughout the neighborhood
at large, the vast majority of homes are one story in
height. However, there are several one-and-a-half story
homes, as well as two-story homes, which are distrib-
uted rather widely throughout the area. Buildings above
two stories are very rare.

Eastside Neighborhood: Lot Size
The Lot Size map shows a distinct pattern in the dis-
tribution of lot sizes. Lot sizes are expressed in in-
crements of 1,000 square feet. The largest group of
properties are between 9,000 and 9,999 square feet.
However, there are a substantial number of smaller lots
in this area, often located at corners. Two concentra-
tions of smaller lots are noteworthy: One lies between
Smith and Mathews Streets, from Locust to Pitkin.
Another is the Circle Drive area. There are other smaller
concentrations, sometimes as only an individual block
face, which exist along the eastern and western edges
of the neighborhood.
Larger lots, those of 11,000 square feet or more, appear
scattered in the northern parts of the neighborhood,
and there are concentrations of these sizes along the
southern boundaries.

dimension determines the potential to be sub-divided.
On the Eastside, the typical lot front width is 75 feet or
less. Exceptions occur on corner lots, along curvilinear
streets, and near E. Elizabeth Drive and Mathews Street,
where larger lot width patterns occur.

The Westside Neighborhood
Overall Development Patterns
The information that follows is derived from a series
of maps illustrating the development patterns of the
Westside Neighborhood as a whole. These show infor-
mation related to residential structures within the study
area boundary. The information is extracted from the
City’s GIS system. (Data is as of June, 2012.)
General Observations for the Westside
Neighborhood
While variation and diversity in building and develop-
ment patterns exist throughout the Westside Neighbor-
hood, this typically occurs within a focused range of
variation. In addition, several specific areas also con-
sistently vary from each other, occurring as subarea
contexts, which are discussed in the following section.

Eastside and Westside Character Study
Westside Neighborhood: Building Age
The Building Age map shows patterns in construction
throughout the history of the neighborhood. In the
Westside, the oldest areas spread out along W. Mountain
Avenue and the areas closest to downtown. These areas
filled in slowly between the 1890s and the 1920s. This
time period was the first of two major periods of con-
struction in the neighborhood.
The second major period of construction occurred
between the 1940s and the 1960s. During this time
areas of the edges of the neighborhood furthest from
downtown developed in shorter time periods leading to
less variety in building types in these areas.
Recent construction is scattered throughout the neigh-
borhood and most lots are within a four-block radius of
recent construction.

Remodels
The Building Remodels map shows the years in which
remodels of homes have occurred. This information is
from construction permit records, and therefore may
not capture all alterations that property owners have
made.
Remodels have occurred throughout the history of
the Westside Neighborhood. However, the pace of
remodels increased over the 1980s and 1990s and the
vast majority of remodels have occurred since 2000.
Recent remodels occurred throughout the neighbor-
hood, but are also heavily concentrated along and near
W. Mountain Avenue.

The House Size map shows patterns in the size of homes
throughout the neighborhood. In the Westside, homes
are predominantly between 500 and 1,500 square feet,
with relatively few homes over 2,000 square feet. In
most areas, the size of homes tends to remain fairly
consistent across an individual block, but can vary
between blocks. However, along W. Mountain Avenue
the average house size is larger and varies more across
an individual block.

neighborhood. The proportion of house size to lot size
is expressed as a Floor Area Ratio (FAR). In the Westside,
homes predominantly have an FAR of 0.30 or less. That
is, a typical home has a floor area that is less than 30%
of the land area of its lot. A few houses with higher FARs
are scattered throughout the neighborhood. Along and
near W. Mountain Avenue, FARs are also larger and can
vary widely across an individual block.

but lot size varies from block to block. More variety in
lot size within a block occurs in areas with curvilinear
street patterns and where there are smaller or subdi-
vided corner lots. Areas with H-shaped alleys will also
have a large range in lot sizes, typically with several
larger lots along a block of smaller lots. More variety in
lot size also occurs along W. Mountain Avenue, though
several individual blocks remain consistent.

subdivided. In the Westside Neighborhood, lot frontage
is typically 75 feet or less, with some limited areas of
slightly wider lots. Exceptions occur on corner lots,
along curvilinear streets, and where H-shaped alleys
occur. Several areas along W. Mountain Avenue also

26 Preliminary Strategy Report (Draft 1)
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Character While the Eastside and Areas Westside Neighborhoods exhibit
many features that may be considered universal, there
are in fact distinct differences in development patterns
that exist in individual subareas. These differenc-
es contribute to the perceived sense of diversity that
is often mentioned when describing these neighbor-
hoods. These differing characteristics are important to
consider when developing a design for new construc-
tion that will be compatible with its context.
Some areas, for example, have a very consistent range of
building sizes, or a uniform range of lot coverage per-
centages. In other places, diversity exists, but nonethe-
less within a defined range. Other variables, including
building height, floor area ratio, lot size and building
age contribute to the differing contexts.
Those variables were considered in setting forth the
different character areas that are described in this
section. A total of six distinct character area types are
defined. These areas occur multiple times in both the
Eastside and the Westside Neighborhoods. Each area
has a unique combination of variables, but it also shares
several similarities with at least one (and often more) of
the other character areas.
Using The Character Areas
The character areas can help to inform discussions
about existing context, which is a key consideration in
designing improvements that will retain and enhance
the unique character and context of the neighbor-
hoods as they continue to change. They may serve as
the foundation for an informational design handbook
that property owners could use in developing design
concepts for additions and infill. They also could be
used in considering the appropriateness of allowing
variances from existing development standards, or in
determining how any potential refinements to devel-
opment regulations might be tailored to settings with
special sensitivity.
Part 1: Neighborhood Profile 27
Eastside and Westside Character Study
About the Character Area Boundaries
The maps that identify the location of the character
areas uses a hard line, which follows the edges of
streets, alleys and property lines. But these boundaries
may in some cases be more “fuzzy,” where transitions
in character occur. In this sense, the boundaries help to
define general concentrations of distinctive character-
istics, but should not be considered to be definite, in
contrast to zoning boundary lines. See page 42 for
maps of the character area boundaries. Full size maps
can also be found in "Appendix B: Character Area Maps"

Eastside and Westside Character Study
Character Area 1
This character area includes portions of the neighbor-
hoods with richly-detailed homes that are somewhat
larger in scale than those found in other parts of the
Eastside and Westside Neighborhoods. Much of the
portion of Mountain Avenue that is close to Old Town is
an example.
Site Plan Features
In many of these areas, building fronts align with uniform
front yard setbacks. This establishes a prominent street
wall. Lawns are predominant. Fences or site walls occur
infrequently, and are relatively low in scale. Lot sizes
vary between blocks, but are more consistent within an
individual block face.
Building Scale Features
Just less than half of homes are one story. Many primary
structures are also one-and-a-half stories with the
upper floors expressed with dormer windows, or are
a full two stories. A typical house has a substantial,
one-story front porch, which when aligned with others
along the block, establishes a consistent sense of scale,
even when the overall building heights vary. Building
sizes vary widely.
Architectural Features
• Most homes have sloping roof forms, in a mix of
gable and hip shapes.
• A combination of brick and wood siding. Many homes
include both materials.
• Front entries are defined with porches, and these are
relatively large and in proportion to the building.
• Trim details with contrasting colors add a sense of
scale and provide visual interest.
• As some of the earliest parts of the neighborhoods, a
general consistency exists in building age (typically
before 1920).

Eastside and Westside Character Study
Character Area 2
Most of the homes in this character area were built prior
to 1940, and their sizes are in a “middle” range with
respect to the Eastside and Westside Neighborhoods
as a whole. Homes exhibit a moderate to high degree
of architectural details, which contribute to a sense of
scale. Building and lot characteristics can vary within
each area. However, individual blocks are more con-
sistent. Some larger-scale homes are located on corner
lots in these areas.
Character Area 2 is similar to Character Area 4, but with
a greater level of consistency in building styles and lot
and building sizes.
Site Plan Features
In many of these areas, building fronts align, with uniform
front yard setbacks; this establishes a prominent street
wall. Lawns are predominant. Fences or site walls occur
infrequently, and are relatively low in scale. Lot sizes
and widths are in a “middle” range, with respect to the
Eastside and Westside Neighborhoods as a whole.
Building Scale Features
Many primary structures are one- to one-and-a-half
stories with the upper floors expressed with dormer
windows. A small percentage are a full two stories. A
typical house has a substantial one-story front porch,
which when aligned with others along the block, estab-
lishes a consistent sense of scale, even when the overall
building heights vary.
Architectural Features
• Most homes have sloping roof forms, in a mix of

Character Area 3
This character area includes homes with the lowest
typical building scale. These are generally small pockets
of development with very distinct character. Architec-
tural details are more limited than in other areas, though
they still help establish a sense of human scale. Homes
appear consistent in character and size across one or
more block faces. The majority of homes in these areas
are predominantly one story, with a limited number of
one-and-a-half and two-story structures.
Site Plan Features
In many of these areas, front yards are similar in depth
and building fronts generally align. This establishes a
prominent street wall. Lawns are predominant. Fences
or site walls occur infrequently, and are relatively low
in scale. Lot sizes are small relative to the Eastside and
Westside Neighborhoods as a whole.
Building Scale Features
Many primary structures are one story. A limited
number are one-and-a-half stories with the upper
floors expressed with dormer windows. A typical house
has a moderate, one-story front porch, which when
aligned with others along the block, establishes a con-
sistent sense of scale. Home size is small relative to the
Eastside and Westside Neighborhoods as a whole.
Architectural Features
• Most homes have sloping roof forms, in a mix of
gable and hip shapes.
• A combination of brick and wood siding. Many
homes include both materials.
• Front entries are defined with moderate porches in
proportion to the building front.
• Building age is varied within a narrow range (1881-
1920).
• There have been few remodels in this area; architec-
tural character is consistent throughout.

Eastside and Westside Character Study
Character Area 4
In these areas there is no dominant style, rather the
full variety of development in the neighborhoods is rep-
resented. Homes date from early development of the
neighborhood through to the mid-twentieth century.
There is a large variety in building style and form
across individual blocks in these areas. However, the
homes are all of a similar scale with a moderate level of
detailing. These areas have a greater degree of diversity,
in terms of building age, scale and architectural styles
and character that others. This character area category
includes large portions of both the Eastside and Westside
Neighborhoods.
These areas are similar in scale to those of Character
Area 2, but with a much greater diversity in lot and
building characteristics and house styles.
Site Plan Features
In many of these areas, building fronts align, with uniform
front yard setbacks. This establishes a prominent street
wall. Lawns are predominant. Fences or site walls occur
infrequently, and are relatively low in scale.
Building Scale Features
The majority of homes are one story. A small percent-
age of primary structures are also one-and-a-half
stories, with the upper floors expressed with dormer
windows, or they are a full two stories. Building sizes
are in a “middle” range, with respect to the Eastside and
Westside Neighborhoods as a whole.
Architectural Features
• Most homes have sloping roof forms, in a mix of
gable and hip shapes.
• Primarily frame construction.
• Front entries are defined with porches in proportion
to the building.
• More diversity in character; built throughout 1900-
1960.
Character Area 4:
Key Features
• Homes typically date from
1881-1920.
• Homes have a moderate to
high degree of architectural
details.
• Front entries are defined with
moderate porches
• Building scale is typically
consistent within individual
blocks.
• Building style varies widely
within individual blocks.
• Home and lot sizes are small
with respect to the neighbor-
hoods as a whole.
• One-story homes predomi-
nate, 1.5 and 2 story homes
are also typical

Character Area 5
This character area represents the post-war home styles
built in areas with older lot and block patterns. Homes
are typically one story, with minimal detailing. Due to
older lot shapes being narrow and deep, homes tend
to be rectangular with street-facing front-gable roofs.
These areas exhibit a relatively high degree of con-
sistency in overall development patterns and building
characteristics. These are small, distinct enclaves.
These areas are similar in to scale to Areas 2 and 4, but
have distinct building patterns and styles unique to the
time period they were built.
Site Plan Features
In many of these areas, building fronts align, with uniform
front yard setbacks. This establishes a prominent street
wall. Lawns are predominant. Fences or site walls occur
infrequently, and are relatively low in scale.
Building Scale Features
Most primary structures are one story. A typical house
has a moderate one-story front porch or stoop. Building
fronts align with others along the block, establishing a
consistent sense of scale.
Architectural Features
• Most homes have low sloping roof forms, in a mix of
gable and hip shapes.
• A combination of brick and wood siding. Many
homes include both materials.
• Front entries are defined with porches or landings
which are relatively small in proportion to the
building.
• A high level of consistency exists in building age
(predominantly between 1941 and 1960).

Character Area 6
This character area includes the mid-century modern
subdivisions. Ranch style homes predominate, typically
with limited, simple detailing, and rectangular forms
with shallow roofs running parallel to the street. Houses
are predominately one story in height, with a few split-
level homes, and are low to medium scale. Street
patterns include cul-de-sacs and curvilinear layouts,
with no alleys and wide, shallow lots.
Site Plan Features
In many of these areas, building fronts align, with uniform
front yard setbacks. This establishes a prominent street
wall. Lawns are predominant. Fences or site walls occur
infrequently, and are relatively low in scale.
Building Scale Features
Many primary structures are one story, others are split-
level or a full two-story height. A typical house has a
moderate stoop but typically does not have a porch.
Building fronts align with others along the block, es-
tablishing a consistent sense of scale. Many buildings
in these areas have been remodeled.
Architectural Features:
• Most homes have low sloping roof forms, in a mix of
gable and hip shapes.
• A combination of brick and wood siding. Many
homes include both materials.
• Front entries are defined with landings, and these
are relatively small in proportion to the building.
• Very consistent in building age (typically between
1950 and 1970).

Part 1: Neighborhood Profile 49
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Recent Across the country Trends many established residential neighborhoods have been experi-
encing significant changes after years of relative stability. Over the last fifteen years
residents began to notice changes in their neighborhoods, such as increased house
size and height on additions and new construction. Such changes are indicative
of current market trends in which established neighborhoods are becoming more
desirable places to live. In some cases, such changes were seen as exciting oppor-
tunities. In other cases, residents worried that inappropriate changes could ruin the
character of their neighborhood.
Overview of Recent Development Trends
The Eastside and Westside Neighborhoods have experienced changes similar to
those occurring in many other established residential neighborhoods nationwide.
Most activity in the Eastside and Westside Neighborhoods have been additions, which
are often of substantial size relative to the existing structure. Both neighborhoods
are also experiencing demolition and new construction, with replacement structures
generally being significantly larger than the demolished homes.
Trends by Neighborhood
Both the Eastside and Westside Neighborhoods are experiencing significant con-
struction activity. However, the majority of activity (72% of all projects) is occurring
in the Westside neighborhood. The Westside also has a higher percentage of new
construction by comparison with the Eastside. 7% of recent activity in the Westside is
new home construction and 93% is remodels, while only 3% of activity on the Eastside
is new home construction and 97% is remodels.
50 Preliminary Strategy Report (Draft 1)
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Recent new construction projects in the Westside have generally been larger than
those on the Eastside. New homes built recently on the Westside range from 1,465
to 3,653 square feet with an average square footage of 2,376 and an average floor
area ratio (FAR) of 0.32. New homes built recently on the Eastside range from 780
to 2,340 square feet with an average square footage of 1,530, and an average FAR
of 0.22.
Recent new construction projects in the Westside have generally been larger than those on the Eastside.
Trends by Development Pattern and Lot Type
Within each neighborhood, development trends may vary by different existing de-
velopment patterns (see "Neighborhood Development Patterns" on page 7 for
more information) or on different lot types. Such differing circumstances may also
influence how new construction is perceived (i.e., concerns may be greater when a
lot is subdivided to allow for the construction of two new homes, or when new con-
struction occurs on an especially large or small lot). Additional evaluation will be
necessary to determine the relationship between different development patterns and
lot types. Two initial areas of evaluation will include:
• Lots Large Enough to Subdivide. The subdivision of lots was mentioned during
community feedback as a potential area of concern. Based on the minimum lot
frontage and parcel sizes required, approximately 5% of lots on the Eastside and
3% of lots of the Westside could be subdivided.
• Large Lots in Predominantly Small-Lot Blocks. Due to the variety of lot and
alley forms in the neighborhoods, there are several areas where significantly
larger lots occur on a block of predominately smaller lots. About 3% of the lots
in both the Eastside and Westside Neighborhoods are significantly larger (at least
3,000 square feet greater) than most others on their block.

GIS data on building permits granted since 1997 show recent increases in construction
activity in the Eastside and Westside Neighborhoods. Construction activity in the Eastside
and Westside Neighborhoods makes up just under 7% of the total citywide building permits.

Part 2
Community The Eastside and Westside Comments Neighborhoods are highly valued. However, for many
years, residents have expressed concern with the compatibility of some new con-
struction and additions. Previous efforts to address these concerns have ended in
controversy. To set the stage for a more inclusive and deliberative consideration of
potential solutions, City Council has sought to more clearly define neighborhood ob-
jectives and issues through a well-supported and effective public process.
To date, the public process for the
Eastside and Westside Neighborhood
Character Study has provided a range
of outreach venues for community
comment, including:
• Neighborhood Workshops
• Working Groups
• Questionnaires and Surveys
This part of the report includes a
summary of community comments from
each of the outreach venues, followed by
observations on the overall themes and
preliminary identification of neighbor-
hood objectives and issues that led to
the strategy options described in Part 4:
"Strategy Options" on page 101.
54 Preliminary Strategy Report (Draft 1)
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Neighborhood Neighborhood workshops provide Workshops an opportunity for
diverse residents and stakeholders to learn about the
project, engage in interactive activities to work through
issues and options, and provide feedback. They are
widely advertised and open to all citizens who wish to
participate.
The Eastside and Westside Neighborhood Character
Study includes two primary neighborhood workshops.
The first occurred in July 2012 and was divided into
separate sessions for the Eastside and Westside. The
second is scheduled for November 5, 2012 and will
combine residents and stakeholders from both neigh-
borhoods.
July Workshops
On July 10 and 12, the City hosted neighborhood
workshops to introduce the project, explore neighbor-
hood character, explore aspects of design that affect
compatibility of new construction, and consider current
regulations. A workshop was conducted in each of the
neighborhoods, with a total attendance of about 95 par-
ticipants. An invitation letter was mailed to all owners
and residents in the study area. Participants were also
invited via email and the City's website.
Each neighborhood workshop began with a visual pre-
sentation by the project consultants. The presentation
addressed:
• The planning process
• Existing context
• Development trends
• Existing regulations
• Potential tools to address neighborhood character
• Design alternatives
• Aspects of design
Workshop participants then completed four activities in
teams of four to eight participants. At the conclusion of
the workshops, participants from each team presented
their activity results.
Key comments and themes from the July workshops are
summarized on the next page, followed by a summary
of the results from each of the workshop activities.

Eastside and Westside Character Study
Eastside Workshop
About 30 participants attended the Eastside workshop
at Laurel Elementary School on July 10. Many partici-
pants expressed a desire to find tools to protect specific
elements of neighborhood character while also preserv-
ing design flexibility for owners and promoting neigh-
borhood affordability. Additional themes in the discus-
sion included:
• Participants often cited the mature tree canopy as a
key neighborhood asset
• Participants generally agreed on the key features
of new development that influence neighborhood
character and compatibility.
• Participants generally agreed that compatible
building massing would help new construction fit
into the neighborhood.
• Some participants stated that even though the
activities identified aspects of design that help
buildings fit in, they felt that the potential for in-
compatible development was exaggerated.
Westside Workshop
About 65 participants attended the Westside workshop
at Putnam Elementary School on July 12. Many partici-
pants expressed an interest in preserving the design
diversity of the neighborhood while ensuring that new
construction does not have negative impacts on neigh-
borhood character. Additional themes in the discussion
included:
• Participants often cited City Park, historic homes,
alleys and Beaver's Market key neighborhood
assets.
• Some participants expressed interest in tools to
support neighborhood consultation and dialogue.
• Some participants indicated that any tools to
address neighborhood character should be highly
context sensitive (including consideration of
adjacent properties).
Additional participant feedback is provided in "Workshop
Activities" beginning on page 56.
Observations
Many workshop participants
expressed general agree-
ment on neighborhood as-
sets, objectives and potential
concerns. However, they often
expressed a diversity of opin-
ion on possible future strate-
gies or actions.
56 Preliminary Strategy Report (Draft 1)
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Workshop Activities
Participants at each neighborhood workshop completed
four team activities designed to stimulate discussion and
generate feedback on neighborhood assets, existing context,
compatible design features, and existing regulations. Teams
spent about 30 minutes completing each activity. An individ-
ual worksheet was also available for participants to provide
comments apart from the team activities.
Activity #1: Existing Conditions
This was a two-part activity. Participants first identi-
fied and listed existing neighborhood assets. They then
identified different subareas or "contexts" within their
neighborhood.
In the first part of the activity, commonly cited assets
included:
• Diversity of house size, design and resident income
• Lack of architectural or other HOA-type restrictions
• Proximity to Downtown
• Walkability and bicycle access
• Wide streets
• Mature tree canopy and landscaping
In the second part of the activity, participants marked
neighborhood contexts, unique subareas and specific
concerns on a poster map of the Eastside or Westside.
Common map themes included:
• Identification of subareas anchored by community
resources such as schools and parks
• Identification of neighborhood contexts differentiat-
ed by street layout, building age, ownership patterns
or level of renovation and new construction
Map feedback provided by workshop participants informed
development of the character areas described on page
7.
Participants marked neighbor-
hood contexts, unique subareas
and specific concerns on an
aerial map of the Eastside or
Westside neighborhood.
Part 2: Community Comments 57
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Activity #2: Design Features
In this activity, participants cut, pasted and captioned
photographs of neighborhood houses and streetscapes
to identify design features of homes that fit with their
neighborhoods.
Participants identified features that are characteristic of
a compatible "Old Town" home, including:
• Front porches and general street presence
• Front yard trees
• Small scale
• Larger structures with varied massing
Participants identified features that are generally out of
character with the Eastside and Westside, including:
• Facades dominated by garage doors or parking
areas
• Houses that appear to be significantly more
massive than the structures around them
In many cases, participants also indicated that context
influences the appropriateness of design features. They
identified features that could be appropriate in some,
but not all, areas of the neighborhoods, including:
• Visible garage doors or parking areas
• Very large homes
• Ultramodern designs using contemporary materials
• Especially large or small front yard areas
Participants used photographs
of traditional neighborhoods
and new construction to identify
design features that help make
properties compatible with their
neighborhoods.
Photographs illustrating gener-
ous front porches and exist-
ing small scale character were
among those most often selected
as illustrating appropriate de-
sign features.
58 Preliminary Strategy Report (Draft 1)
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Activity #3: Design Alternatives
In this activity, participants reviewed a variety of hy-
pothetical new construction designs on a sample lot in
one of five neighborhood contexts. Participants indicated
whether they felt that each design was compatible with its
surrounding context and identified any illustrated design
features that helped promote compatibility.
Each context was illustrated with a three-dimensional
computer model of existing conditions in a three- to four-
block area of the Eastside or Westside neighborhoods. New
construction designs on the sample lot in each context il-
lustrated a number of variables, including height, lot
coverage (the percent of the lot covered by buildings),
building square footage and wall length/articulation.
Understanding which design variables contribute most
to neighborhood compatibility will help determine how
new construction can best fit into a variety of neighbor-
hood contexts.
Participants identified a number of design features
that could help reduce the perceived mass and scale of
new construction and help it fit in with its surrounding
context. Identified features included:
• One-story elements along the side of a two story
house where the context is one story
• One-story elements on the front of a two-story
house
• Side wall offsets
• Traditional roof pitch
• Roof ridge offsets
• Consistent spacing and rhythm of buildings along
the block
Participants also identified concerns, including:
• The proportion of a building to the size of its lot
• Large, boxy building masses that are out of
character with their surrounding context
• Wall height, in relation to closeness of side yard
set back
• Loss of solar access for properties to the north
Participants reviewed a variety
of hypothetical new construction
designs on a sample lot in one
of five neighborhood contexts.
Participants identified a number
of design features that could help
reduce the perceived mass and
scale of new construction and
help it fit in with its surrounding
context, including front porches,
dormers, varied rooflines, one-
story elements and side wall
offsets.
Part 2: Community Comments 59
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Activity #4: Existing Regulations
In this activity, participants reviewed and provided
comments on the zoning regulations that currently apply
to new construction in the Eastside and Westside.
Existing zoning regulations in the Neighborhood Conser-
vation Low Density (N-C-L) and Neighborhood Con-
servation Medium Density (N-C-M) zone districts were
illustrated on a graphic poster.
Participants identified a number of concerns, including:
• Concern that additional regulations could limit
design flexibility and produce higher costs
• Concern that existing regulations do not adequately
address context or promote neighborhood dialogue
• Concern that structures built on raised grade may
tower over neighbors based on the existing height
measurement system
• Concern with ease of obtaining height and setback
variances
Individual Worksheet
In addition to the four formal team activities, an in-
dividual worksheet was provided for workshop partici-
pants to submit optional comments and feedback.
About a third of participants at each workshop completed
an individual worksheet. All indicated that they were
property owners in the neighborhoods.
Key themes in the worksheet responses include:
• Many participants indicated that there are both
benefits and concerns associated with changes in
the neighborhoods, including benefits associated
with larger houses for new families and concerns
with loss of green space and solar access
• Most participants (74%) felt that there is an issue
with some new construction in the neighborhoods,
although many felt that issues were limited to
certain areas of the neighborhoods, or to a small
number of projects
• Few participants (11%) specifically indicated that
they thought there was no issue with new con-
struction in the neighborhoods
Participants reviewed and pro-
vided comments on the zoning
regulations that currently shape
new construction in the Eastside
and Westside Neighborhoods.
Observations
Based on workshop partici-
pant responses, addressing
potential new construction
issues in focused ways (i.e.,
only addressing the largest
structures or particular types
of lots) could satisfy many
concerns.

Eastside and Westside Character Study
November Workshop
On November 5, the City will host a neighborhood
workshop to review the character and context of the
neighborhoods, summarize identified neighborhood
objectives and issues and introduce options for City
Council consideration. The workshop will bring Eastside
and Westside residents together with other stakehold-
ers to facilitate an informed dialogue with multiple
viewpoints. Postcard invitations have been mailed to all
owners and residents in the study area. Participants will
also be invited via email and the City's website.
The workshop will begin with a visual presentation by
project consultants. The presentation will address:
• The planning process
• What we heard in Phase 1
• The character and context of the neighborhoods
• Summary of identified issues and objectives
• Overview of potential tools
• Strategy options for City Council consideration
• Overview of the visual survey
Workshop participants will then complete several team
activities. At the conclusion of the workshops, partici-
pants from each team will present their activity results.
Key comments and themes from the November
workshop will be summarized in the next draft of this
report.

Part 2: Community Comments 61
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Working Working group Groups sessions provide opportunities for
community members with diverse interests to discuss
objectives, refine issues and outline potential strate-
gies in a small group setting. They are advertised on
the City's web site and invitations are sent to the City's
email list of interested residents and stakeholders.
The Eastside and Westside Neighborhood Character
Study includes several sets of working group meetings.
The first were held in June 2012 and included sessions
for Eastside residents, Westside residents and real estate
industry professionals. Subsequent sessions brought
these diverse stakeholders together to discuss strategy
options and provide feedback on the public participa-
tion process.
June Working Groups
On June 14, 2012 the City hosted three prelimi-
nary working group meetings for Eastside residents,
Westside residents and real estate industry profession-
als. There was no deliberation, and the outcome was
simply for the study team to gain additional perspective
as the project was being launched publicly.
At each session, City staff provided a general introduc-
tion and project consultants facilitated meeting discus-
sion. Many working group participants indicated that
the meeting format supported useful dialogue, and
expressed desire to participate in future meetings with
a similar format. However, some participants requested
that future sessions include a wider range of viewpoints
to begin a process of deliberation and conflict resolu-
tion.

62 Preliminary Strategy Report (Draft 1)
Eastside and Westside Character Study
June Neighborhood Working Groups
Two meetings of residents were held for Eastside and
Westside areas respectively. 15 Eastside residents and
14 Westside residents attended. Participants answered
four key questions:
• What are some key assets of your neighborhood?
• Do you have any concerns, or do you see specific
benefits, with the types of changes occurring in
your neighborhood?
• What information do you need to make informed
decisions about the future of your neighborhood?
• How can we ensure active community engagement?
Key discussion themes revolved around the neighbor-
hoods as great places to live with a strong sense of
community. While many participants were concerned
with some large new construction negatively impacting
neighborhood character and quality of life, questions also
arose regarding the appropriateness of limiting owners'
choices, given the degree of subjectivity in what is com-
patible. Some participants also expressed frustration that
the 2011 ordinance had been rescinded and noted that
they felt organized economic interests were inherently
more powerful than residents.
June Real Estate Working Group
This meeting included a total of nine builders, realtors,
and architects. Participants answered four key questions:
• What types of neighborhoods are your customers
looking for, and why?
• What features are your customers looking for in a
new or existing home?
• Have you encountered issues when working in the
city’s established neighborhoods?
• How can we ensure active participation from a
variety of stakeholders?
A key discussion theme was that the neighborhoods
are highly successful in the market, with some of the
highest values and shortest times on the market. This is
related to concern that any new regulations would neg-
atively affect the market and unduly limit owners’ flex-
ibility. Several real estate professionals also noted the
entire community should be engaged in the dialogue
rather than just Eastside and Westside residents.
More detailed information on discussion results is
provided in the separate Phase 1 Report.
Market Trends
and Preferences
Real estate industry profes-
sionals provided insight into
current market trends and
home buyer preferences. Ob-
servations included:
• Old Town neighborhoods
are highly desirable.
• The market for Old Town
properties has significantly
outperformed the market
in more suburban areas.
• Buyers seek pedestrian-
Part 2: Community Comments 63
Eastside and Westside Character Study
September On September 12 and Working 13, 2012, the Groups City hosted two
working group meetings to discuss issues identified
in the study’s first phase and explore potential tools
and strategies to address those issues. The meetings
included a mixed group of Eastside and Westside
residents as well as industry professionals in real estate,
construction and architecture who have worked in the
neighborhoods.
At each session, City staff and project consultants gave
a presentation on the results of the study's first phase
and introduced potential tools for discussion in Phase
2. Participants then worked together to discuss these
tools, recording key points of their discussion on a
poster in the following categories:
• Education and Communication Tools
• Process and Administration Tools
• Design Standards
Although working group participants expressed a
diversity of opinions, a number of general themes
emerged from the discussion, including:
• Strong support for educational tools such as non-
mandatory design guidelines
• Strong support for evaluating changes to the way
that building height is measured to better account
for the impact of grade changes on adjacent prop-
erties
• Strong support for tools that encourage diversity in
building design
• Support for process tools such as neighborhood
notification requirements
• Support for basing the application of tools on
specific thresholds such as project size or new
construction vs. additions
• Interest in examining tools that would address the
compatibility of large additions or new construc-
tion
• Interest in maintaining a “no change” option as
that would keep existing processes and regulations
in place without revisions
More detailed information on discussion results is
provided in the separate Summary of October Working
Groups document.

Eastside and Westside Character Study
October On October 3 and Working 8, 2012, the City Groups hosted three working
group meetings to review preliminary strategy options
for addressing identified objectives and issues in the
neighborhoods. The meetings included a mixed group
of Eastside and Westside residents as well as industry
professionals in real estate, construction and archi-
tecture who have worked in the neighborhoods. There
were about 45 total working group participants.
At each session, City staff and project consultants gave
a presentation on tools suggested for further consid-
eration based on overall community comments and
September working group discussion. Participants then
worked together to discuss and comment on strategy
options for using the tools.
Key themes in the October working group discussion
included:
• Process and education tools received the broadest
support. Most participants supported tools to raise
awareness and promote compatible design through
education and process tools such as:
x Increasing awareness of design assistance
available from the City
x Developing design guidelines or a pattern book
x Extending neighborhood notification of new
construction
• Many participants felt that new or adjusted
design standards may be necessary. Many (but
not all) participants felt that one or more design
standards would also be necessary to fully address
identified issues. They are:
x Adjust measurement of building height at the
side yard setback.
x Consider adjusting FAR standards and/or FAR
measurement (if solar access is not specifically
addressed).
x Consider building wall articulation/building
massing standards (if FAR is not addressed).
x Consider addressing solar access (if FAR
standards are not addressed).
• Some participants continue to feel that no
action is necessary. It is also important to note
that several participants felt that a ”no change”
option would be most appropriate.

Questionnaires Questionnaires and surveys and provide Surveys a venue for
feedback on study concepts by the widest variety of
participants, including residents and stakeholders who
are unable to attend workshops or working groups.
They are advertised online and via mailings, and are
conducted primarily online, with the option to complete
a printed version.
The Eastside and Westside Neighborhood Character
Study included a preliminary online questionnaire in
July 2012 and will include a more detailed follow up
visual survey in November 2012.
July Neighborhood Questionnaire
An online questionnaire was posted from July 2 to 15,
2012 to collect information on valued neighborhood
qualities, clarify objectives and identify potential issues
and concerns. Separate (but identical) questionnaires
were targeted to property owners, tenants and the
general public (interested citizens), allowing separate
response tabulations for each group of participants.
City staff mailed 5,579 notices to owners and residents
living within either the Eastside or Westside Neighbor-
hoods requesting they take the questionnaire. Partici-
pants submitted 288 completed questionnaires.
Key themes in the questionnaire responses are sum-
marized on the following pages.

1. There is an issue, but it is limited.
When asked to mark statements with which they
agree regarding demolitions, new houses and
additions, most property owners in both the
Eastside and Westside selected options indicating
that they feel there is an issue, as illustrated in
the charts below. However, they also indicate that
issues generally occur only in certain areas or situ-
ations within the neighborhoods, or are limited to
a small number of construction projects.

2. Many participants feel that some
new construction is positive for the
neighborhoods.
Although most participants feel that there is some
issue with new construction, many also indicated
that some new construction and additions can
benefit the neighborhoods. When asked to select
potential reasons why there is no problem with
new construction and demolitions in the neighbor-
hoods, many property owners indicated that new
construction can add to the eclectic evolution of
the neighborhood and support families and home-
ownership, as illustrated in the chart below.

Part 2: Community Comments 71
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Overall Comment From across the Themes spectrum of in community the Public outreach
venues, there is a consistent tone of concern that there
is an issue with changes resulting from demolitions and
new construction. However, this is not a universally held
viewpoint. Many people, in all outreach venues, have
said there is not a problem, or that no new regulatory
changes should be made. These concerns are important
to consider, and identifying ways to respond to them is
still an area of exploration.
Reviewing research related to existing conditions (for
more information, see Neighborhood Profile beginning
on page 5), and considering the comments received
in neighborhood workshops, working groups and ques-
tionnaires/surveys, some general themes emerge:
1. The neighborhoods are highly
valued.
This is perhaps stating the obvious, but a strong
point of agreement is the belief that the Eastside
and Westside Neighborhoods are special. Many of
the reasons for saying so are also broadly recog-
nized, even among those who disagree about the
character and impacts of new construction. This
is reflected in the passion with which residents
and property owners engage in debates about the
future of their neighborhoods.
72 Preliminary Strategy Report (Draft 1)
Eastside and Westside Character Study
2. Key features that define the
neighborhoods are broadly
recognized.
The valued characteristics of these neighborhoods
focus on convenient location, a walking-oriented
environment and diversity. The main themes of
neighborhood character can be grouped thus:
• Proximity to amenities. Almost universally, people
cite the convenient access to downtown, to schools
and parks, to grocery stores, CSU and other
services as “top of mind” features.
• Livable Streets. Tree-lined streets, continuity of
pedestrian and bicycle routes and a walkable scale
to each block are features people note. Homes that
face the street, and signal a connection to it with
porches and other friendly features contribute to
this aspect.
• Sense of Community. These broad, somewhat
intangible characteristics are those that have
attracted people to these neighborhoods for
decades.
• Diversity. "Diversity" is a fundamental feature of
these neighborhoods, in terms of people and the
built environment.
3. Use of key design tools can
help buildings fit into the
neighborhoods.
Although design diversity is a key feature of the
neighborhoods, it is also recognized that there are
key building design tools that designers can use to
make new buildings more compatible with existing
neighborhood character in certain contexts. Such
tools generally address basic mass and scale rela-
tionships between properties as well as preserva-
tion of open space and solar access.
4. Living with change is a challenge.
Residents are struggling to grasp the nature of
change in their neighborhoods. Most recognize
that change will occur, and believe that it should,
but many hope that this change will not completely
transform the place where they live.
"Diversity"
Residents often cite "diver-
sity" as a defining charac-
teristic of the Eastside and
Westside Neighborhoods.
The term is used in a variety
of ways, to describe people,
their beliefs and their social,
economic and cultural dif-
ferences. It also is used to
describe variety in the built
environment, such as dif-
ferences in house size, pe-
riod and style that occur in a
limited range throughout the
neighborhoods.
For some, the diversity of

Eastside and Westside Character Study
Neighborhood and Issues Objectives
Community comment generated by the public process
for the Eastside and Westside Neighborhood Character
Study has helped identify and clarify overall objectives
for the neighborhoods. They are:
1. Promote awareness of what makes the neighbor-
hoods great
2. Promote compatible redevelopment
3. Maintain a sense of community
4. Encourage communication among neighbors
5. Preserve flexibility for change and reinvestment
6. Acknowledge economic impacts
The public process has also identified a number of
issues with ongoing changes that may negatively impact
existing residents and the unique character and context
of the neighborhoods. They are:
A. Additions and new construction that appear to be
overly large in relation to surrounding houses or
the neighborhood
B. New building walls or elements that appear to
loom over neighbors
C. Additions or new construction that reduce solar
access on neighboring lots
D. Additions or new construction that incorporate
incompatible design features
E. Additions or new construction that impact trees
and green space
F. New large houses that replace valued older/more
affordable homes
The neighborhood objectives and issues listed above
inform an evaluation of the potential tools described
in Part 3, Potential Tools, and provide a foundation
for the strategy options described in Part 4, Strategy.
It is important to note that some participants in the
public process indicated that they do not believe there
are issues with new construction and additions in the
neighborhoods and feel that new tools should not be
considered.

Part 3
Potential A number of potential Tools tools could be used to address neighborhood issues and ob-
jectives identified during the public process. Most tools could be applied as voluntary
policies, incentivized, or implemented as design standards (zoning requirements).
They may be grouped into three primary categories:
1. Education and
Communication
These tools focus on providing in-
formation to strengthen skills and
build awareness of, and support for,
neighborhood character and com-
patibility.
2. Process and
Administration
These tools include neighborhood planning
processes, as well as the procedures for review
and permitting of new construction and additions
in the neighborhoods.
3. Design Standards
These tools provide quantitative code require-
ments for development such as maximum height
and minimum setbacks.
This part of the report outlines tools in each category
that could be used to address neighborhood issues and
objectives. Tools suggested for formal consideration
are described in "Strategy Options" on page 101.
76 Preliminary Strategy Report (Draft 1)
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Education Communication These tools focus on and providing information to strength-
en skills and build awareness of, and support for, neigh-
borhood character and compatibility. They may also
provide channels for communication among neighbors,
builders and the City.
Design Guidelines/Pattern Books
Design guidelines and pattern books can provide helpful
information that property owners can use to help ensure
that a specific project fits with the neighborhood. They
can address many aspects of design, including those at
the neighborhood, site and building levels.
Pattern books typically show how various building com-
ponents, such as roof forms, porches and architectural
details, can be combined to yield designs that will fit
with the neighborhoods. Design guidelines are similar,
but often provide more specific detail and direction
and acknowledge an interactive dynamic between many
design variables.
Some interpretation will generally be needed to consider
the interaction between guidelines and whether a
specific design solution meets the overall intent.
Design guidelines may be used in three ways:
• Voluntary: Applicants for new construction or
additions are not required to follow the guidelines
• Advisory: Designs are reviewed by a board or
commission, but applicants are not required to
comply with board suggestions. This approach
could be applied where a defined threshold is
exceeded, such as above a specific floor area ratio
(FAR).
• Mandatory: Applicants are required to meet the
intent of the guidelines to obtain approval for new
construction or additions
Design guidelines may be used
to support a design review pro-
cess that provides an additional
level of detail and allows for a
high level of context sensitivity
in the design approval process.
Part 3: Potential Tools 77
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Advantages of Design Guidelines:
• Helps ensure that additions and new construction are
context-appropriate
• Allows for flexible design solutions
• May address a more detailed level of design than
regulations can
Potential Disadvantages of Design Guidelines:
• Requires interpretation
• May not provide predictable outcomes
• May not always address issues if voluntary
Existing Design Guidelines: In 1996 a voluntary Design
Guidelines document was developed but is no longer
distributed.
Sample Design Guideline
Design guidelines for established residential areas in the City of Galveston encourage new
construction and additions with compatible mass and scale.
78 Preliminary Strategy Report (Draft 1)
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Neighborhood Descriptions Character
Neighborhood character descriptions establish a
clear understanding of the characteristics of an area
that residents value. This includes the basic physical
framework of a neighborhood, defines similarities of
design in terms of building and site design and a de-
scription of the degree of diversity that appears. This
analysis can help the community determine the degree
of sensitivity that each area has to change.
Existing Neighborhood Character Descriptions:
Neighborhood character descriptions in various forms
can be found in the 1996 design guidelines as well as
the 1980s neighborhood plans.
Awards Programs
These are special programs for the recognition of highly
compatible projects that can stimulate investment in
properties as well as encourage owners to maintain
neighborhood compatibility.
Existing Programs: There are no existing awards
programs in the neighborhoods for compatible devel-
opment.
Design Assistance
These are special programs offered through the City
which give owners a certain amount of design assis-
tance, often in the form of a design professional's time.
Existing Program: In late 2011, the City started a design
assistance program that aims to enhance neighborhood
compatibility through the assistance of experienced
professionals with success in context-sensitive design.
Through October of 2012, the program has been used
to assist with 25 projects citywide. 4 of these projects
were in the Eastside neighborhood and 6 were in the
Westside neighborhood.
Participants in the public process for this study noted
that many residents are not aware of the existing design
assistance program.
Part 3: Potential Tools 79
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Process These tools include and neighborhood Administration planning processes,
as well as the procedures for review and permitting of
new construction and additions in the neighborhoods.
They may also address enforcement programs.
Public Comment Notice and Neighborhood
Requiring public notice of a proposed project may
inform neighbors of a planned demolition or new con-
struction. Such a requirement may be combined with
a neighborhood comment program that provides an
opportunity for neighbors to comment on, or discuss
plans.
Existing Requirements: The City currently requires
mailed notice to property owners within 150' of a property
where a zoning variance is requested. An existing de-
molition/alteration review process also provides notifi-
cation of potential demolition of buildings or structures
50 years old, or older (See http://www.fcgov.com/his-
toricpreservation/review.php for more information).
However,there is not a formal process for demolition of
newer structures or notification of plans for new con-

Neighborhood Plans
Many communities use neighborhood plans to guide
development within an established context. Such plans
provide a future vision and can guide development of
other, more specific tools, such as design handbooks
and guidelines. They may also be used in reviewing
projects, and especially in considering any variances
that may be requested. In some cases, in order to issue
a variance the review body must find that the proposed
action is in compliance with the neighborhood plan. A
neighborhood plan could also provide a blueprint for
streetscape design and other improvements on the
public realm.
Advantages of a Neighborhood Plan:
• Provides specific policies, goals and objectives for
future development at the neighborhood level
• Provides a fine-tuned level of guidance for public im-
provements (parks, paths, streetscape, etc.)
• May guide development of context sensitive tools to
promote desired design and development patterns
Potential Disadvantages of Neighborhood Plans:
• May be costly and time consuming
• May not address current issues in a timely manner
• May not be as strong as other regulations
Existing Plans: In the late 1980s, the first Neighbor-
hood Plans were adopted for the Eastside and Westside
Neighborhoods, establishing a policy basis for protect-
ing the character of the neighborhoods. Updates to the
neighborhood plans for the Eastside and Westside are
currently on the City's work program for 2014.

Eastside and Westside Character Study
Historic Districts and Conservation
Historic Districts
A historic district designation focuses on preserving the
significance of all of the historic structures that combine
to create a sense of time and place, as well as to assure
that new construction is compatible with this context.
Historic districts are established under local zoning
regulations, within the framework of appropriate state
enabling legislation.
The historic designation can be used for individual
properties of historic significance, and neighborhoods
that meet the criteria for listing as districts. This tool
may also be used to protect certain significant proper-
ties from demolition.
Advantages of Historic Districts:
• Preserves the historic character and integrity of places
of significance.
Potential Disadvantages of Historic Districts:
• Can create a regulatory burden if overly complex to
administer
Existing Historic Districts: Portions of the Laurel
School National Register Historic District are located in
the study area. However, special preservation regula-
tions apply only to locally-designated historic districts
(the Old Town commercial district is currently the only
locally-designated historic district in the city).
Historic and
Conservation
District Goals
The following goals typically
motivate the creation of a
Historic District:
• To preserve the integrity
of all historic resources
that contribute to the
district
• To assure that the
sense of time and
place is maintained,
through compatible new
construction
The following goals typically
motivate the creation of a
Conservation District:
• To maintain
neighborhood character
• To enhance livability
• To attract investment
• To promote community
sustainability
• To preserve historic
resources, if they exist
in the area, as individual
landmarks
82 Preliminary Strategy Report (Draft 1)
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Conservation Districts
The conservation district is a specialized form of zoning
overlay which is specifically established to protect
existing character. Conservation districts use broader
criteria than historic districts, but still focus on re-
specting the established context. A typical conservation
district focuses on new construction, large additions and
site design; minor alterations are not typically reviewed.
A conservation district is used as an alternative to
historic district designation for a variety of reasons,
including:
• The area does not contain a sufficient percentage of
historic resources,
• Or, politically, support does not exist for historic district
designation,
• Or, the government is concerned about the administrative
burden of adding more historic properties to the city’s
preservation review responsibilities.
Historic buildings also can be embedded in a conser-
vation district. These are individually landmarked, and
conventional preservation protections and incentives
apply to them.
Advantages of a Conservation District:
• Less administrative burden than historic districts.
• A wider range of construction techniques may be
available, assuring economical options.
• Design guidelines are generally more broad, providing
flexibility in approaches.
• Political support may not exist for designating a
historic district, while protecting livability of neigh-
borhoods may enjoy wide support.
Potential Disadvantages of Conservation Districts:
• May not protect the historic integrity of a neighbor-
hood
• May not maintain significant character-defining
features on historic structures
Existing Conservation Districts: Conservation districts
are not currently used in the N-C-M and N-C-L districts.
Part 3: Potential Tools 83
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Design These tools provide Standards quantitative code requirements for
development such as maximum height and minimum
setbacks.
Neighborhood Level Standards
Streetscape Design Standards
The character of a neighborhood is substantially influ-
enced by the design of the public realm. Standards for
street trees, the use of planting strips along the curb,
and the placement and materials of sidewalks are basic
features. Street lights and other utilities also affect
character.
Advantages of Streetscape Design Standards:
• Can support a cohesive street character
Potential Disadvantages of Streetscape Design
Standards:
• May limit individuality of front yard designs
Existing Regulations: No streetscape design standards
are in place in the neighborhoods.
Lot Size Standards
Lot size standards determine density and influence the
general character of single-family neighborhoods. They
generally set a minimum size for lots but may also set
a maximum. Lots may not be subdivided if a resulting
lot would be smaller than the minimum standard. In
addition, existing lots that are smaller than the minimum
standard may be considered as “non-standard” and
require variances to obtain permits for additions and
new construction.
Advantages of Lot Size Standards:
• In combination with building size and number regula-
tions, can help maintain density
Potential Disadvantages of Lot Size Standards:
• Can limit the ability to subdivide large lots
Existing Regulations: Currently minimum lot size
standards of 5,000 s.f. in N-C-M and 6,000 s.f. in
N-C-L are in place.

Eastside and Westside Character Study
Site Level Tools
Tools such as lot coverage, building coverage, open
space and landscaping standards help preserve and
promote an existing or desired character within and
among individual lots. They may determine where
buildings are located relative to the street and sidewalk
and how much green space is visible from the street or
separates structures from each other.
Building Coverage
Building coverage standards establish the maximum
percentage of a lot surface that may be covered by
structures. Additional elements are sometimes excluded
(in part or in whole) from building coverage to provide
additional flexibility or to promote specific design
elements. These may include:
• Roof overhangs
• Accessory structures
• Roofed front porches
• Any deck or patio areas that are not roofed
• Gazebos that are not enclosed on more than two sides
Advantages of Building Coverage Standards:
• Helps maintain open space
• Helps preserve side and rear yard areas
• Mitigates privacy impacts by discouraging larger
structures from extending substantially into the rear
yard
• Can be used to provide an incentive for front porches
or detached garages/accessory structures
Potential Disadvantages of Building Coverage
Standards:
• Could encourage taller structures if not combined with
specific height or floor area ratio standards
Existing Regulations: There is no building coverage
standard currently in use.
Part 3: Potential Tools 85
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Lot Coverage Standards
Lot coverage standards may dictate the maximum per-
centage of a lot surface that can be covered by built
areas such as buildings or paved areas. Often, any im-
pervious surface area (that which sheds water such as
building roofs, patios, driveways and walkways) is con-
sidered as lot coverage.
Advantages of Lot Coverage or Standards:
• Helps maintain green space
Potential Disadvantages of Lot Coverage Standards:
• Could encourage taller structures (to allow for larger
driveways, patios, etc.) if not combined with specific
height or floor area ratio standards
• Limits on all hard surfaces would not have as signifi-
cant an effect on building form as building coverage
standards
Existing Regulations: A maximum hardscape area of
40% in the front of a lot is currently used in both the
N-C-M and N-C-L zone districts.
Open Space Standards
Open space standards may generally be described as
the inverse of lot coverage standards. That is, they
specify a minimum amount of open space rather than
a maximum area that may be covered by buildings or
other surfaces and structures.
Open space standards may differ from lot coverage
standards when specific standards are set for the
quality or location of the required open space. They are
also more likely to be applied at a neighborhood, or
framework, level, specifying the minimum amount of
combined open space for a larger development.
Existing Regulations: There is no open space standard
currently in use. However, where a secondary dwelling
is permitted it is required to have a separate yard of at
least 120 square feet.

Eastside and Westside Character Study
Landscape Buffering Standards
Landscape buffering standards require vegetation to
screen incompatible structures and uses. Most fre-
quently used where commercial or industrial uses abut
single-family residential uses, landscape buffering may
have a role in protecting the privacy of side and rear
yards or in screening parking areas from neighbors or
the street.
Landscape buffering is usually described as a planting
area of a specified width along the property line.
Detailed requirements for the plant material ensure that
adequate buffering occurs. Some buffers also include a
requirement for walls or fences.
Advantages of Landscape Buffering Standards:
• Evergreen vegetation provides a visual and functional
screen between new development and existing homes.
• Additional vegetation has a beneficial effect on air
quality and helps reduce the heat island effect of
paved areas.
Potential Disadvantages of Landscape Buffering
Standards:
• Landscape buffering could limit the ability to provide
adequate solar access if placed in some locations.
• Most current landscape buffering requirements do not
buffer “like from like,” meaning single-family homes
next to other single-family homes, because these are
usually considered compatible enough not to require
a buffer.
• May be difficult to enforce
Existing Regulations: There are no landscape buffering
standards currently in use.

Landscape buffering stan-
dards may be used to screen

Part 3: Potential Tools 87
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Landscape Volume Ratio (LVR)
Standards
LVR measures soft vegetative volume. In mature resi-
dential communities this can be as important as building
volume because lots are likely covered with mature
landscaping. In many older neighborhoods, landscape
volume may be larger than building volume. A tear
down is likely to result in a loss of mature vegetation.
The LVR provides a means of measuring this.
Advantages of Landscape Volume Ratio Standards:
• Unlike most buffer systems, LVR is sensitive to
the actual height and volume of both existing and
proposed trees and other vegetation.
• Relates amount of vegetation on the site to the size
of the lot (large lots will require more vegetation to
reach the same ratio).
Potential Disadvantages of Landscape Volume Ratio
Standards:
• Difficult to calculate and enforce
• Volume ratio does not specify placement of vegetation
to serve as a screen.
• Is not as effective in the winter when deciduous trees
lose their leaves
Existing Regulations: Landscape volume ratio standards
are not currently used.
88 Preliminary Strategy Report (Draft 1)
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Setback Standards
Setback standards limit how close buildings may be
placed to the front, sides or rear of a lot. The setback
is usually calculated as the distance from the property
line to the edge of the nearest building. Taken together,
front, side and rear setback standards define the area of
the lot where structures may be built.
Advantages of Setback Standards:
• Front setbacks help maintain a continuous pattern of
open space along a block.
• Side and rear setback standards can protect privacy
(especially when new construction involves a two-story
building) by ensuring that buildings on adjoining lots
are separated by a minimum distance.
• Incentives can also be included in setback standards
to promote desirable design elements such as front
porches or buildings that step down towards their
neighbors (i.e. allowing front porches to encroach
into the setback or providing different side setback
standards for one and two-story building elements).
Potential Disadvantages of Setback Standards:
• In areas with varied setbacks, increased setback
standards could cause some structures to become
non-standard.
Existing Regulations: Front, side and rear setback
standards for both the primary and accessory structures
are currently used within both the N-C-M and N-C-L
districts.

Building Level Tools
“Building level” tools govern the mass, scale and general
design characteristics of buildings on individual lots.
Floor Area Ratio (FAR) Standards
Floor area ratio standards limit the total square footage
of all structures on a lot. FAR is generally expressed
as two decimal digits, calculated by dividing the total
building square footage by the total lot square footage.
FAR standards do not alter the three-dimensional
building envelope in which structures may be built, but
will generally make it difficult or impossible to build a
structure that fills the entire envelope. When the FAR is
set at a level that is less than what otherwise could be
constructed within setback, height and building coverage
limits, then there is the opportunity for variation in
building form. That is, different design solutions, with
different massing arrangements, can occur.
Additional elements are sometimes excluded (in part or
in whole) from FAR to provide additional flexibility or to
promote specific design elements. These may include:
• Attic space
• Accessory structures
• Roofed porches
Advantages of FAR Standards:
• Directly relates the size of structures to the size of
the lot
• Relatively easy to understand and calculate
• Can be combined with lot coverage and height limits
to break down the overall scale of structures
• Can be used to provide an incentive for front porches
or detached garages and accessory structures
FAR Diagrams
When the FAR is set at a level
that is less than what oth-
erwise could be constructed
within setback, height and
building coverage limits,
then there is the opportu-
nity for variation in building
form. That is, different de-
sign solutions with different
massing arrangements can
occur. All of the structures
illustrated above have a floor
area ratio of 0.40.
90 Preliminary Strategy Report (Draft 1)
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Potential Disadvantages of FAR Standards:
• Could permit inappropriately tall or box-like struc-
tures when not combined with other standards and
guidelines
• Could permit inappropriately large structures on large
lots
• Could constrain the building potential of small lots
Existing Standards: The City currently specifies a
minimum lot area in relation to the total floor area of
buildings on the lot. This standard creates a de facto
maximum FAR for the lot (0.40 in the N-C-L district and
0.5 in the N-C-M district). In addition, there is a separate
FAR for the rear half of a lot (0.33 in the N-C-M district
and 0.25 in the N-C-L district). Existing FAR standards
include the floor area of the primary structure as well as
the floor area of any accessory structures that are larger
than 120 square feet.

Part 3: Potential Tools 91
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Overall Height
Overall building height standards dictate the maximum
height a building may reach.
Advantages of Height Standards:
• Helps ensure that structures do not loom over their
neighbors
• Relatively easy to understand and calculate
• Can be used to provide an incentive for specific roof
forms that are consistent with a specific neighborhood
character or tradition (i.e., height may be calculated to
the mid-point of a sloped roof to encourage pitched
roof forms).
Potential Disadvantages of Height Standards:
• Could permit inappropriately tall structures near
neighbors unless combined with other standards
• Can create confusion if methods of measurements are
inconsistent
Existing Regulations: The current maximum allowable
building height is determined by side setbacks, sidewall
height, a two-story maximum, and a maximum roof
pitch of 12:12. There is no maximum number for height
measured in feet for primary structures. However, there
is a maximum height for accessory structures of 24
feet. The maximum sidewall height currently does not
include any alterations to grade, which can result in a
higher relative height for projects using a raised grade
as compared to those which do not.
92 Preliminary Strategy Report (Draft 1)
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Bulk Plane Standards
Bulk plane standards shape the maximum permitted
three-dimensional building envelope by limiting the
height and mass of building elements on different parts
of a lot. A bulk plane generally rises at a defined angle
from the front, side or rear property line(s) or from the
front, side or rear setback(s). It can begin at ground
level, or at a predetermined point above ground level,
and continue to rise toward the center of the lot until it
meets the overall height limit or intersects a bulk plane
rising from another side of the lot. Bulk planes ensure
that taller portions of a structure are positioned in the
center of the lot, rather than immediately adjacent to
neighbors.
Building elements often exempted from bulk plane
standards:
• Chimneys
• Dormers (often limited in size)
• Solar panels
Advantages of Bulk Plane Standards:
• Restricts taller or more massive building elements to
certain portions of a lot
• Helps reduce the potential of tall walls or massive
structures to adversely affect their neighbors
• Can be combined with lot coverage, FAR and/or CCR
standards to mitigate mass and scale impacts while
encouraging creative design solutions
Potential Disadvantages of Bulk Plane Standards:
• May not support existing conditions in areas where
some traditional structures have tall exterior walls
• Can be difficult to visualize or understand
• May encourage longer buildings where very narrow
lots occur
Existing Regulations: Bulk plane standards are not ex-
plicitly used in the project area. However, a de facto
bulk plane is used which specifies a maximum building
wall height based on distance from the side setback.
Bulk Plane
Diagram
Bulk planes primarily serve to
shape the three dimensional
"envelope" in which a build-
ing can be built.
Part 3: Potential Tools 93
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Solar Access Standards
Solar access standards limit the amount of shadow a
building can cast on a neighboring property. The areas
for which solar access is protected can vary by applica-
tion, and include:
• Yards,
• Rooftops, and/or
• South-facing walls, or portions thereof.
Typically a certain amount of solar access is designated
for protection for a certain time period on the winter
solstice. Often this is defined by the amount of shadow
that would be cast by a hypothetical fence of a certain
height on that area.
Advantages of Solar Access Standards:
• Supports the use of both active and passive strategies
for lighting, heating and energy generation
• Helps maintain the ability to garden in a yard
• Can be combined with other standards to mitigate
mass and scale impacts while encouraging creative
design solutions
Potential Disadvantages of Solar Access Standards:
• May be more restrictive on certain lot conditions than
on others
• Can sometimes be difficult to visualize or understand
• May encourage a stepped building form depending on
application of standards
• May encourage larger building mass along a southern
property line
Existing Standards: The City does not currently have
solar access standards that apply in established residen-
tial neighborhoods such as the Eastside and Westside.
Solar access standards are, however, applied to new
residential developments. Such standards prohibit
casting shadow onto structures on adjacent properties
greater than the shadow which would be cast by a 25'
hypothetical wall located along the property lines of the
project between the hours of 9:00 am and 3:00 pm,
MST, on December 21.

94 Preliminary Strategy Report (Draft 1)
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Articulation and Wall Sculpting
Articulation standards further refine the perception of
building scale by “sculpting” the exterior of buildings.
The primary objective is to reduce the perceived mass
of a building by dividing it into smaller components,
or “modules.” Articulation can be required in several
different ways or can be required to include a certain
number of methods.
One Story Element
A one-story porch or other element can be required
along one or more building facades. Typically this would
be required on the street front of a building in order to
help reduce the apparent mass of the structure from
the street. As an alternative to requiring a one-story
element, an incentive can also be included in FAR or
building coverage standards to encourage one-story
front porch elements.
Roof Ridge Articulation
A maximum length can be established for the ridge line
of a roof before an offset must occur. This can help
minimize the perceived mass of the roof area.
Wall Sculpting/Wall Height and Length
Wall length and height standards may be combined
to help sculpt building forms and discourage overly
large or box-like shapes. Wall length standards set a
maximum length for the wall planes of exterior building
walls before they must jog or incorporate an offset. Wall
height standards set a maximum permitted height for
exterior building walls before they must step back. Wall
heights are usually measured from either grade or the
first finished floor to the highest horizontal framing
member, or wall plate, that intersects the wall. This is
usually the point at which the roof eave meets the wall.
Wall height standards are often tied to setbacks to help
ensure that taller or more massive building elements are
located away from the edges of a lot. Such wall height
standards can shape the permitted building envelope
in a way that is similar to a bulk plane standard. Wall
length standards may be tied to wall height to restrict
the length of two-story walls while allowing longer walls
if they are one story in height.
Part 3: Potential Tools 95
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Advantages of Articulation and Wall Sculpting
Standards:
• Reduces the perceived mass and scale of structures
• Helps ensure that the mass of larger infill structures is
broken up to reflect the size of traditional structures
• Encourages division of building mass into modules
• Facilitates varying the setbacks of building walls along
the sides of properties
• Helps mitigate the impacts of large side walls “looming”
over neighbors
Potential Disadvantages of Articulation and Wall
Sculpting Standards:
• May not support existing conditions in areas where
traditional structures have tall or long walls
• May not support some desired interior floor plan
layouts
Existing Regulations: Specific articulation and wall
sculpting standards are not currently used within the
neighborhoods.

Part 3: Potential Tools 97
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Cubic Content Ratio (CCR) Standards
Cubic Content Ratio standards limit the total volume of
all structures on a lot. CCR is generally expressed as a
whole number with two decimal digits. It is calculat-
ed by multiplying the maximum exterior height, width
and depth of a structure and dividing the result by the
total square footage of the lot. If a CCR standard of
7.50 was applied to a 10,000 square foot lot, a 15 foot
tall (1-story) house could be about 70 feet wide and 71
feet deep. Both floors of a 30 foot tall (two-story) house
could be approximately 50 feet wide and 50 feet deep.
CCR standards do not directly alter the dimensions of
the three-dimensional envelope in which buildings may
be built. A CCR standard, however, will generally make
it difficult or impossible to build a structure that fills the
entire envelope. Accessory structures and porches are
sometimes excluded from CCR calculations.
Advantages of CCR Standards:
• Directly relates the scale of structures to the size of
the lot
• May encourage lower floor-to-floor heights
• Can be combined with lot coverage and height limits
to break down the overall scale of structures
• Can be used to provide an incentive for front porches
or detached garages and accessory structures
Potential Disadvantages of CCR Standards:
• Could encourage overly box-like structures when not
combined with other standards and guidelines
• Could discourage wall sculpting and articulation
• Could permit overly large structures on large lots
• Could constrain the building potential of small lots
• Very difficult to calculate and understand
Existing Regulations: CCR standards are not currently
used.

Ratio Standards
The primary structure illus-
trated above is on a 7,500
square foot lot and is 35
feet wide (A), 50 feet deep
(B) and 23 feet high (C). The
resulting CCR is 5.37. A box
shaped structure filling the
entire area would have the
same CCR.
98 Preliminary Strategy Report (Draft 1)
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Potential Each potential tool Application discussed in the previous Strategies sections
could be applied in different ways. Several approaches
are discussed below, including:
• Apply Tools Uniformly Throughout the Neighborhoods
• Vary Their Application by Neighborhood or by a
Smaller Character Area
• Vary Their Application by Lot Size
• Vary Their Application by Zoning District
• Apply Tools Only in Certain Zoning Districts, Neigh-
borhoods or Character Areas
• Combined Application
Option: Apply Tools Uniformly
Throughout the Neighborhoods
Those tools selected to be used could be applied in a
uniform manner across the neighborhoods. That is, their
application would not vary based on zoning district, lot
size or other criteria. For example, a new maximum
building coverage limit of 30% could be applied to all
properties in the project area.
Advantage of Uniform Application:
• Simple to administer and enforce
Potential Disadvantage of Citywide Application:
• “One Size Fits All” – may have unintended conse-
quences due to its broad application in all situations
Part 3: Potential Tools 99
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Option: Vary Application by
Neighborhood or Area
The selected tools could be applied differently
depending on specific neighborhoods or areas (such
as the character areas described on page 26). For
example, a certain building coverage standard could be
applied in the Eastside and a different building coverage
standard could be applied in the Westside, both of which
are currently within the two project zoning districts.
Advantages of Varying Application by Neighborhood
or Area:
• Avoids the “one size fits all” issues of a uniform
approach
• Allows specific numeric standards to be developed for
each neighborhood or area
• Sensitive to context
Disadvantages of Varying Application by Neighbor-
hood or Area:
• May be difficult to determine where these areas should
be mapped
• Multiple standards in different areas may be harder
to enforce
• May depend on time-consuming neighborhood
planning efforts
Option: Vary Application by Lot Size
One possible approach to matching homes to their un-
derlying lot size is to establish standards that vary by
the lot size itself. When the standards were applied to
smaller lots, the result would be a smaller house.
Advantages:
• Avoids the “one size fits all” issues of a citywide
approach.
• Allows specific numeric standards to be developed for
each lot size. Matches house size to underlying lot.
Disadvantages:
• Multiple standards in a given zoning district may be
harder to administer and enforce.
100 Preliminary Strategy Report (Draft 1)
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Option: Vary Application by Zoning District
Much like varying the standards by neighborhood or
area, varying them by zoning district is possible. This
approach assumes that areas zoned similarly have similar
problems and should be treated in similar fashion.
Advantages:
• Avoids the “one size fits all” issues of a citywide
approach
• Allows specific numeric standards to be developed for
each district
Disadvantages:
• Zoning districts may not be similar in character.
• Multiple standards in different areas may be harder
to enforce.
Option: Apply Selected Tools Using
Thresholds
Another option is to “trigger” the use of a tool when a
certain threshold is exceeded. For example, the existing
FAR standard could be used as a filter for applying an
additional requirement to articulate building form. In
such a system, any new development that would result
in a project exceeding an FAR of .35, for instance, would
then be required to provide articulation, perhaps from a
menu of choices, to break up the perceived mass of the
building. Any project below that threshold would not be
required to do so. Such a threshold system could also be
used for public notice, or other process requirements.
Option: Apply Tools Only in Certain
Zoning Districts, Neighborhoods or Areas
The recommended tools could be applied only to certain
zoning districts, neighborhoods or areas. For example,
they could be applied only in the N-C-L zoning district
with no changes made in any other district.
Option: Combined Application
The final option worth considering is using a combina-
tion of the approaches. Some tools may be implemented
on a neighborhood-wide basis, while others relate to a
specific area, and still others to small or large lots. This
fine-grained combination would likely yield the best
result.
Preliminary Strategy Report 101
Part 4
Strategy City Council's overall goal Options for the study, is to retain and enhance the unique character
and context of the Eastside and Westside Neighborhoods as they continue to change
with renovations, additions and new housing construction.
Based on Public feedback to-date, pre-
liminary strategy options have been
identified for consideration. These strat-
egies include the tools described in Part
3 that would best address the identified
neighborhood objectives and issues while
meeting criteria for fairness, predictabil-
ity and effectiveness. The City would not
develop all of the strategy options as a
single package. Rather, after additional
refinement, City Council may select one or
more strategy options for further devel-
opment. Community comments received
at a neighborhood workshop and on an
online visual survey in early November,
will also inform revisions to the strategy
options. See "Next Steps" on page 118
for more information.
This part of the report begins with a description of
selection criteria and application considerations,
followed by a summary of the strategy options, details
on the tools within each option, and information about
next steps.
102 Preliminary Strategy Report (Draft 1)
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Selection The tools included Criteria in the strategy options address
identified neighborhood objectives and issues, as well
as an initial evaluation of potential tools in focused
community working group sessions. They also consider
the following criteria:
1. Effectiveness
The tool should directly address one or more
specific objectives or issues identified within the
neighborhoods. For example, adjusting the way
that building height is measured at the side yard
setback to account for grade changes directly
addresses the issue of new construction and
additions that appear to be overly large and tall in
relation to their neighbors.
2. Fairness
The tool should apply equally to all similar prop-
erties and should not create undue hardships on
unique properties. For example, the maximum
wall height at the side yard setback should be the
same for all similarly sized lots located within the
same zone district, and should allow for sufficient
flexibility under unique conditions such as espe-
cially narrow or steeply sloping lots.
3. Predictability
The tool should be understandable by property
owners, neighbors, architects and builders. It
should also produce predictable results by clearly
defining what is permitted and what is not. For
example, an FAR standard should support a rea-
sonable understanding of the total volume/mass
and scale of construction that could occur on a
particular lot.
4. Efficiency
The tool should be part of an easily adminis-
tered process that is cost effective and sets clearly
defined expectations for property owners, builders
and architects. For example, a height measurement
system that does not require extensive site surveys
would be preferred.
Objectives and Issues
As described in Part 2:
"Community Comments"
on page 53, the study's
public process identified a
range of neighborhood ob-
jectives and issues.
Objectives include:
1. Promote awareness of
what makes the neigh-
borhoods great
2. Promote compatible re-
development
3. Maintain a sense of community
4. Encourage communica-
tion among neighbors
5. Preserve flexibility for
change and reinvestment
6. Acknowledge economic impacts
Part 4: Strategy Options 103
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Application Although most participants Considerations in the public outreach
process felt that there is an issue with demolitions, new
construction and additions in the neighborhoods, they
also indicated that they felt the issues were limited to
certain areas or situations within the neighborhoods, or
to a small number of construction projects. Therefore,
some of the tools included in the strategy options,
such as expanded notification, or standards to address
perceived scale, would only apply to the largest new
construction or additions (about 7% of projects, based
on a threshold FAR of 0.35). See page 66 for more
information on community comments.
Other tools, such as voluntary design guidelines or
adjusted measurement methods would likely apply to
all new construction and additions in the N-C-L and
N-C-M zone districts. If selected for further evalua-
tion, any revisions to FAR standards would vary by zone
district.
"Potential Application Strategies" on page 98 of the
Potential Tools section describes other possible appli-
cation considerations, such as varying application by
neighborhood, character area or lot size. These applica-
tion strategies may be considered based on additional
community comment or City Council direction. However,
they are not currently suggested because:
• Most participants from both neighborhoods
indicated issues or concerns with demolition and
new construction.
• It is not clear that issues or concerns occur most
often on particular sizes or types of lots.
• Although issues or concerns may be more pro-
nounced in some neighborhood areas, participants
in other areas also have concerns. (See "Character
Areas" on page 26 for more information)

1. Promote Design Assistance. This would promote access to, and use of
the City’s current design assistance program. The design assistance tool
is described in greater detail on page 106.

2. Expand Notification. This would extend notification of requested
variances exceeding a specific FAR threshold to allow for comment on
pending changes in the neighborhoods. Expanded notification is described
in greater detail on page 107.

3. Create Design Handbooks. This would include development of advisory
(voluntary) design guidelines or pattern books to promote compatible
development in unique character areas throughout the neighborhoods.
Voluntary guidelines are described in greater detail on page 108.

4. Adjust Measurement. This would adjust the method for measuring
building height at the minimum side setback and FAR to better account
for the impact of tall walls on raised grade and high volume spaces.
Measurement adjustments are described in greater detail on page 110.
5. Address Building Massing. This would apply new or adjusted design
standards (zoning requirements) to address the impacts of larger new
construction and additions. One of the following options would be con-
sidered per direction from City Council:
5a. Address Scale Directly. This would reduce currently permitted
maximum FAR standards to directly address concerns with the mass
and scale of some new construction/additions. Note that this is not a
suggested strategy option. Additional detail is provided on page 111.
4.
5b. Address Perceived Scale. This would provide a menu of options
for articulating the mass of new construction/additions exceeding a
specific FAR threshold. Additional detail is provided on page 112.
5c. Address Solar Access. This would introduce a standard limiting
the amount of shadow that new construction/additions could cast
on a neighboring property. Note that this is not a suggested strategy
option. Additional detail is provided on page 116.
6. No Action/Limited Action. This would not introduce new regulatory
tools or strategies. Additional detail is provided on page 117.

Tools Each strategy Used option in would the Strategy implement one Options or more education, process or design
standards tools to address neighborhood objectives and issues. Each tool is sum-
marized below.
Market the Existing Design Assistance Program
This is an educational tool that provides free or reduced cost architectural services to
applicants seeking assistance with compatible design.
Current
Program
In late 2011, the City started a design assistance program that aims to enhance
neighborhood compatibility through the assistance of experienced profession-
als with success in context-sensitive historic design. Participants in the public
process for this study noted that many residents are not aware of the existing
design assistance program.
Character
/ Context
A design assistance program can take into account information about the char-
acter of the neighborhoods to promote context-sensitive design. For example,
design professionals that are part of the program would be familiar with any
design guidelines, character areas or other information available about design-
ing new construction or additions to be compatible with existing conditions.
Community
Comment
Many residents indicated that a program to provide design assistance could
help promote compatible additions and new construction in the neighborhoods.
Objectives Addressed: Issues Addressed:

Pro /
Con
Design assistance programs received a high level of support in the public pro-
cess and could be implemented relatively quickly.
Suggested
4u
Marketing the City's existing design assistance program is part of Strategy
Option 1, which is suggested for further evaluation and development. It is an
early implementation option that could be in place relatively quickly. It may
also be combined with later development and implementation of other sug-
gested strategy options.
Scope
Expanded marketing of the design assistance program would apply to all
qualifying properties Citywide.
Part 4: Strategy Options 107
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Expand Existing Notification of Variances
This is an administrative tool that provides neighborhood notice of applications for
variances to existing zoning standards.
Current
Program
The City currently requires mailed notice to property owners within 150' of a prop-
erty where a zoning variance is requested. There is no requirement to post a sign.
Notification is addressed in land use code section 2.10.2(F).
Character /
Context
Variances may be requested on any property citywide, and are reviewed using a pro-
cess that determines if the particular conditions of the property present a hardship
that requires a variance, or satisfies the "nominal, inconsequential" or the "equal to
or better than" standard. In practice, the conditions for granting a variance may oc-
cur more often on small or unusual lots. This may be why variance requests in the
Eastside and Westside neighborhoods account for almost 38% of variances citywide
while the neighborhoods only account for 7% of all building permits citywide.
Community
Comment
Many residents indicated that the current notification program for variances was not
sufficient, and that mailed notice should be provided to more property owners, and/
or a sign should be posted.
Objectives Addressed: Issues Addressed:
3. Community
4. Communication
B. Looming
C. Solar Access
Pro /
Con
Most participants in the public process supported the concept of expanding notifi-
cation of variance requests (which occur significantly more often in the Eastside and
Westside than in other neighborhoods). While such a tool could promote communi-
cation about changes in the neighborhood and be implemented relatively quickly, it
would not directly address resident concerns about the mass and scale of some new
construction and additions in the neighborhoods.
Suggested
4u
Expanding notification of variances is part of Strategy Option 2, which is sug-
gested for further evaluation and development. It is an early implementation op-
tion that could be in place relatively quickly. It may also be combined with later
development and implementation of other suggested strategy options.
Suggested extension of notification is to 500' or 800', with a posted sign on the
subject property. As noted below, expanded notification of variances would ap-
ply only to a small number of larger projects.
Many residents also indicated that notice should be provided for larger new con-
struction and additions in the neighborhoods. However, because such a program
would apply to new construction that meets existing zoning standards, it could im-
ply that neighborhood agreement is necessary before such a project could proceed.
However, City Council may determine that notification of new construction should
be evaluated further.
Scope
.
Expanded variance notification is suggested only for new construction and ad-
ditions that exceed an FAR of 0.35, which would impact about 7% of new con-
struction and additions (based on average FAR of projects in the Eastside and
Westside neighborhoods over the last 10 years).
108 Preliminary Strategy Report (Draft 1)
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Create Voluntary Design Guidelines/Handbooks
This is an education tool that can include advisory design guidelines, pattern books
or other information to assist property owners and designers with compatible, con-
text-sensitive, design in the neighborhoods.
Existing
In 1996 a voluntary Design Guidelines document was developed for the Eastside and
Westside neighborhoods. However, it is no longer distributed.
Character
/ Context
Design handbooks can work closely with information about the existing character
and context of the neighborhoods, such as that summarized in Part 1: "Neighbor-
hood Profile" on page 5. They may also provide customized guidance for differ-
ent character areas in the neighborhoods, such as those summarized on page 26.
Community
Comment
Many residents expressed a strong interest in providing design guidelines or pat-
tern books to educate property owners, architects and builders about compatible,
context-sensitive design in the neighborhoods. Interest was primarily in applying
design guidelines as voluntary or linked to incentives rather than as requirements.
Objectives Addressed: Issues Addressed:
1. Awareness
2. Compatibility
5. Flexibility
D. Design features
Pro /
Con
Most participants in the public process supported development of design handbooks
or guidelines. While such tools provide context-sensitive guidance and are highly
flexible, their voluntary nature may not directly address resident concerns about the
mass and scale of some new construction and additions in the neighborhoods.
Suggested
4
Developing voluntary design handbooks or design guidelines to promote com-
patible development in unique character areas throughout the neighborhoods
is part of Strategy Option 3, which is suggested for further evaluation and devel-
opment. It may be combined with development and implementation of other
suggested strategy options. Design handbooks or guidelines should illustrate
compatible projects that comply with all standards and regulations to assist with
an understanding of what can be built in the neighborhoods.
Although design handbooks are suggested to be voluntary, they could be linked
to incentives such as the design assistance program.
Scope
Design handbooks or guidelines would provide guidance for all properties in
the Eastside and Westside Neighborhoods (N-C-L and N-C-M zoning districts).
Part 4: Strategy Options 109
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Adjust Measurement of Height at the Side Yard
This is a design tool related to measurement of building height at the side yard.
Current
Standard
The City currently limits building height to 18'
at the 5' minimum side yard setback in the N-
C-L and N-C-M zoning districts, with 2' of ad-
ditional height allowed for each 1' of increased
setback. Height is measured from actual grade
at the base of the structure, allowing for a tall-
er height in relation to neighbors when grade
has been raised as illustrated at bottom right.
Height in relation to side setback is addressed
in land use code sections 4.7(E)(4) and 4.8(E)(4).
Character /
Context
Adjusting measurement of building height at
the minimum side yard setback is likely to have
the greatest impact in Character Areas 3, 5 and
6, where most existing buildings are one story
and there is a higher potential for taller new
construction or additions to loom over neigh-
bors.
Community
Comment
Many residents indicated that the height of new construction in relation to
neighbors was a key issue. They also noted that the current height measure-
ment method may allow for structures that loom over their neighbors when
they are built on a natural slope, or a site where the grade has been raised.
Objectives Addressed: Issues Addressed:
2. Compatibility A. Mass and Scale
B. Looming
C. Solar Access
Pro /
Con
Most participants in the public process felt that this tool would directly ad-
dress key mass and scale and looming issues related to new construction and
additions built on raised grade or sloping sites. In addition, this tool could in-
directly address issues with solar access. However, some participants felt that
adjusting the measurement method would be overly restrictive on some sites,
especially when grade must be raised to address flood standards.
Suggested
4
Adjusting the measurement method for building height at the side yard
setback is part of Strategy Option 4, which is suggested for further evalu-
ation and development. It may be combined with development and imple-
mentation of other suggested strategy options.
The measurement method would be adjusted to measure height from the natu-
ral grade at the interior side lot line directly adjacent to the building wall as
illustrated in "Comparison of Height Measurement Systems" on page 113.
Potential exceptions for dormers, side-facing gables and other limited building
elements may be considered.
Scope
Adjusted measurement of height at the side yard would apply to all proper-
ties in the Eastside and Westside Neighborhoods (N-C-L and N-C-M zon-
ing districts). This tool is not relevant to other neighborhoods in the city
because building height is not limited at the side yard outside of the N-C-L
and N-C-M zoning districts.
110 Preliminary Strategy Report (Draft 1)
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Adjust Measurement of Floor Area Ratio (FAR)
This is a design tool related to measurement of FAR (also called "lot ratio" in existing
regulations).
Current
Standard
The City currently limits maximum FAR (or "lot ratio") in the N-C-L and N-C-
M zoning districts. FAR measurement includes the floor area of the primary
structure as well as the floor area of any accessory structures that are larger
than 120 square feet. However, the current measurement method for FAR does
not differentiate between interior building areas of different heights (a double
height room with a cathedral ceiling is counted the same as a room with a typi-
cal ceiling height). FAR is addressed in land use code sections 4.7(D)(1), 4.7(D)
(5), 4.8(D)(1) and 4.8(D)(5).
Character
/ Context
Adjusting FAR measurement is likely to have the greatest impact in character
areas where new construction and additions tend to have the highest FARs.
Community
Comment
Many residents have indicated that the current measurement method for Floor
Area Ratio (FAR) may not adequately account for the total volume or perceived
mass and scale of different building or floor area configurations.
Objectives Addressed: Issues Addressed:
2. Compatibility A. Mass and Scale
C. Solar Access
E. Green Space
Pro /
Con
Many participants in the public process felt that this tool would help "close a
loophole" that allows for the construction of large volume spaces that are
counted the same as rooms with a typical ceiling height. In addition, this tool
could indirectly address issues with solar access. However, some participants
felt that adjusting the FAR measurement method would be overly restrictive.
Suggested
4
Adjusting the FAR measurement method is part of Strategy Option 4, which
is suggested for further evaluation and development. It may be combined with
development and implementation of other suggested strategy options.
The measurement method would be adjusted to establish a "virtual floor
area" for large volume spaces (those with ceiling heights above about 13')
so they are better accounted for in FAR measurement.
Scope
Adjusted FAR measurement would apply to all properties in the Eastside
and Westside Neighborhoods (N-C-L and N-C-M zoning districts). This
tool is not relevant to other neighborhoods in the city where FAR standards
are not in place.
Part 4: Strategy Options 111
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Consider Revising Base FAR Standards
This is a design tool that relates permitted building square footage to lot size.
Current
Standard
The City currently specifies a minimum lot area in relation to the total floor area
of buildings on the lot in the N-C-L and N-C-M zoning districts. This standard
creates a de facto maximum FAR for the lot. FAR is addressed in land use code
sections 4.7(D)(1), 4.7(D)(5), 4.8(D)(1) and 4.8(D)(5).
Character
/ Context
Adjusting base FAR standards is likely to have the greatest impact in character
areas where new construction and additions tend to have the highest FARs.
Community
Comment
Many residents have expressed concern with some new construction that is
seen as inappropriately large in relation to its neighbors or the traditional scale
of the surrounding neighborhoods. Participants in the workshops and working
groups have noted that adjustments to the City's current maximum floor area
ratio (FAR) standards could help address mass and scale issues in the neigh-
borhoods.
Objectives Addressed: Issues Addressed:
2. Compatibility A. Mass and Scale
C. Solar Access
E. Green Space
Pro /
Con
Many participants in the public process felt that FAR adjustments could most
directly address issues with the mass and scale of some new construction. In
addition, this tool could indirectly address issues with solar access. However,
some participants felt that FAR adjustments would be overly restrictive.
Not
Suggested
Adjusting base FAR standards is a tool choice in Strategy Option 5. It is not
suggested for further development. Although it directly addresses key issues,
many residents and other stakeholders feel that it is an overly restrictive tool
that limits flexibility for expansion. However, City Council may determine that
this tool should be evaluated further.
Scope
Any FAR adjustments could apply uniformly to both the N-C-L and N-C-M
zone districts, or differently by zoning district or lot size.

Address the Character of Side Walls
This is a design tool that relates to the configuration of side building walls.
Current
Standard
The City does not currently address the character of side building walls in the
Eastside and Westside neighborhoods (N-C-L and N-C-M zoning districts).
Character
/ Context
Addressing the character of side walls is likely to have the greatest impact in
character areas where larger or taller new construction and additions are being
built on relatively small lots.
Community
Comment
Community workshop participants reviewed alternative designs for new con-
struction in a variety of contexts throughout the Eastside and Westside neigh-
borhoods and identified which designs they felt were most compatible. The
new construction that was most often identified as compatible featured articu-
lated building masses that reduced the appearance of long walls, or of large,
boxy shapes.

This is a design tool that relates to the configuration of the front façade.
Current
Standard
The City does not currently address the character of the front façade in the
Eastside and Westside neighborhoods (N-C-L and N-C-M zoning districts).
However, the City does require that the primary entrance to a dwelling be lo-
cated along the front wall of the building and include an architectural entry
feature unless an alternative is required for handicap access.
Character
/ Context
Addressing the character of side walls is likely
to have the greatest impact in character areas
where larger or taller new construction and ad-
ditions are being built on relatively small lots.
Community
Comment
As illustrated at right, community workshop
participants selected design features that they
felt would promote compatible new construc-
tion in the Eastside and Westside neighbor-
hoods. Lower-scale elements at the street, and

Consider Addressing Solar Access
This is a design tool that relates to protecting solar access and addressing the
potential shading impacts of new construction and additions.
Current
Standard
The City does not currently have solar access standards that apply in the East-
side and Westside neighborhoods (N-C-L and N-C-M zoning districts) or other
established neighborhoods. Solar access standards are, however, applied to
new residential developments. Such standards prohibit casting shadow onto
structures on adjacent properties greater than the shadow which would be cast
by a 25' hypothetical wall located along the property lines of the project be-
tween the hours of 9:00 am and 3:00 pm, MST, on December 21.
Although the City does not have specific solar access standards for existing
neighborhoods, some related standards, such as the height limit at the side
yard setback, encourage solar access on neighboring properties.
Character
/ Context
Addressing solar access is likely to have the greatest impact on narrow lots with
an east/west orientation.
Community
Comment
Many residents have indicated that maintenance of solar access is an important
consideration as the Eastside and Westside neighborhoods continue to change
and develop. Some have noted that, unlike other issues with neighborhood
compatibility, solar access is also an economic issue.
Objectives Addressed: Issues Addressed:
6. Economic Impacts C. Solar Access
Pro / Con
Solar access tools would directly address a
key issue without limiting floor area. However,
they would not address mass and scale issues
directly and may be complex to create and ad-

Eastside and Westside Character Study
Consider Taking No Action or Only Limited Action
Some residents indicated that they do not feel there is an issue and would like to
ensure that City Council continues to consider taking no action, or only limited action
to implement voluntary educational or administrative tools.
City Council should continue to weigh the recommended strategies and tools against
a "no change" option. Any new strategies and tools that are developed for Council
review should also consider that not all residents feel there is an issue, and that many
residents would like to preserve a high level of flexibility for new construction in the
neighborhoods.
Other Tools and Strategies for Future Consideration
Other tools and strategies that are beyond the scope of the current Eastside and
Westside Neighborhood character study, or would apply to properties outside of the
project area, may also be considered to address identified objectives and issues.
Such tools and strategies are briefly summarized below.
Consider Adjusting Zoning for the Laurel School District
Some residents have expressed concern regarding the possibility of larger, higher
density, construction replacing existing single-family structures in portions of the
Laurel School National Register Historic District that are within the Neighborhood
Conservation Buffer (N-C-B) zone district.
The N-C-B zone district is outside of the area for the Eastside and Westside Neigh-
borhood Character Study. However, the City should continue to evaluate possible
zoning adjustments to include more of the Laurel School Historic District in the
N-C-M zone district to encourage compatibly scaled redevelopment. Such adjust-
ments may be best considered as part of a neighborhood planning process. Updates
to the neighborhood plans for the Eastside and Westside are currently on the City's
work program for 2014.
Consider Other Zoning Boundary Adjustments
Some residents have indicated that neighborhood areas beyond the current bound-
aries of the N-C-L and N-C-M zone district experience similar issues and could
benefit from strategies and tools implemented as part of this project.
The City should continue to evaluate zoning boundaries to ensure that the N-C-L
and N-C-M zone districts are properly applied to promote objectives and address
issues in centrally-located traditional neighborhoods. Such adjustments may be best
considered as part of a neighborhood planning process. Updates to the neighbor-
hood plans for the Eastside and Westside are currently on the City's work program
for 2014.
118 Preliminary Strategy Report (Draft 1)
Eastside and Westside Character Study
Consider Citywide Application of Tools
and Strategies
A number of participants in the public workshops and
working group sessions said they felt that the N-C-L
and N-C-M zone districts that apply in the Eastside and
Westside should not receive special consideration, and
that any tools and strategies developed for the neigh-
borhoods could potentially be useful for other primarily
single-family zone districts throughout the city.
Once the Eastside and Westside Neighborhood Character
study is complete, and selected strategies have been in
place for a year or more, review each tool for possible
application in other zone districts throughout the city.
Next This report Steps will be updated based on community
feedback received at a neighborhood workshop and on
an online visual survey. City Council will then discuss the
revised strategy options at a work session on November
27. Based on City Council direction, some strategy
options may be developed for early implementation in
January or February, 2013. City Council may also select
additional strategy options for further development and
public process through February, 2013.
Appendix A: GIS Mapping Data
GIS data was collected to visually portray the physical characteristics of the
Eastside and Westside neighborhoods. This data helps to define the character
of the neighborhoods as a whole, as well as to identify sub-areas with unique
features. Eight maps for each of the neighborhoods are attached. The maps
include:
• Building Age
• Building Remodels
• House Size
• Floor Area Ratio (FAR)
• Building Height
• Lot Size
• Lot Frontage
• Lot Coverage

Planning and Zoning Board Minutes
October 18, 2012
6:00 p.m.
Council Liaison: Mayor Weitkunat Staff Liaison: Laurie Kadrich
Chair: Andy Smith Phone: (H) 482-7994
Chair Andy Smith called the meeting to order at 6:10 p.m.
Roll Call: Campana, Carpenter, Hatfield, Schmidt, Smith, and Stockover
Excused Absence: Kirkpatrick
Staff Present: Kadrich, Eckman, Shepard, Holland, Lorson, and Sanchez-Sprague
Agenda Review
CDNS Director Laurie Kadrich reviewed the agenda and noted two proposed changes. The Board at
their work session asked that Bucking Horse, Second Filing, Project Development Plan, PDP #120022
be moved to consent. Also staff asks that Land Use Code Amendments for Multi-Family Housing, Phase
2 be removed from the discussion agenda due to the need for additional staff work. It will come back to
the Board at their hearing on November 15, 2012.
Citizen participation:
Eric Sutherland, 3520 Golden Currant, said it seems lately every time that City Council meets they are
hearing an appeal of a land use decision. He thinks that speaks to an issue of trust on what our
government can accomplish. He said he attended a recent Type 1 hearing on a subdivision in the NCM
zone. On that application, staff recommended a lot size modification of standards to 9,000 square feet
from a minimum requirement of 10,000 square feet. He said there is nothing in our Land Use Code
(LUC) that requires, advises, or welcomes staff to provide recommendation on modification of standards.
He thinks that defeats the whole practice of having a hearing officer/a decision maker make those
decisions. He said the LUC does require staff to comment on whether particular standards are
applicable to a development proposal. He said that’s acceptable, wise and prudent. He thinks with staff
recommendations the decision maker(s) job is already done and that’s a problem.
Sutherland said at the Type 1 hearing he recently attended, staff did not any way comport with the
thinking behind the particular standard (10,000 square foot minimum in the NCM). He said in this
particular case there are exceptional circumstances why that one modification ought to be granted. He
said those listed, because it would lead to great infill and development, is completely out of step when
that precedent was set when that section of the LUC became code. He said he doesn’t understand why
we do the things we do. He expects the LUC to provide protections and to provide opportunities that
create the kind of community we want to create. He said there are probably more problems than have
even been identified in this system. He doesn’t see an awful lot of work going into improving how things
work and what we’re going to see instead is appeal after appeal as that’s the only way people have for
Planning & Zoning Board

driving change in the system. He thinks that’s a bad way to do things and he would look to this Board to
provide leadership to make sure that citizens input makes it into the city’s processes.
Chair Smith asked if any member of the audience, the Board or staff wanted to pull an item from consent.
No one did.
Consent Agenda:
Minutes from the September 13 and 20, 2012 Hearings
Provincetowne P.U.D. Third Filing, One-Year Extension of Final Plan Vested Rights, #73-82X
Kechter Crossing Annexation #ANX120008
Bucking Horse, Second Filing, Project Development Plan, PDP #120022
Discussion Agenda:
Land Use Code Amendments for Multi-Family Housing, Phase 2 – REMOVED due to additional
staff work required. It will be considered on the Board’s November 15, 2012 discussion agenda.
Member Campana left the room due to a conflict on one of the items on the consent agenda.
Member Schmidt made a motion that the Planning and Zoning Board approve the consent agenda
with consists of Minutes from the September 13 Special Hearing and the September 20, 2012
Hearing, the Provincetowne P.U.D. Third Filing, One-Year Extension of Final Plan Vested Rights,
#73-82X, the Kechter Crossing Annexation #ANX120008, and the Bucking Horse, Second Filing,
Project Development Plan, PDP #120022. Member Carpenter seconded the motion. The motion
was approved 5:0.

PROJECT: Three Mile Plan for the City of Fort Collins, Colorado
APPLICANT: City of Fort Collins, Colorado
OWNER: N/A
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This is the 2012 annual draft update of the Three-Mile Plan for the City of Fort Collins,
Colorado.
ACTION REQUESTED
Staff requests the Planning and Zoning Board forward a recommendation to City
Council regarding adoption of the 2012 annual update of the Three-Mile Plan for the
City of Fort Collins, Colorado.
SUMMARY
The Three-Mile Plan is a State Statute required policy document ensuring that the City
complies with the regulations of Section 31-12-105 of the Colorado Revised Statutes.
The Three-Mile Plan lists the plans, policies, maps, and other documents that have
been adopted by the City of Fort Collins City Council, which generally describe the
proposed location, character and extent of existing and proposed infrastructure and land
use. State Statute also requires this plan to be updated on an annual basis. There are
very few changes to this plan from the 2011 update.
COMMENTS
Section 31-12-105 of the Colorado Revised Statutes states,
Prior to the completion of any annexation within the three-mile area, the municipality
shall have in place a plan for that area, that generally describes the proposed location,
character, and extent of streets, subways, bridges, waterways, waterfronts, parkways,
Three Mile Plan for the City of Fort Collins, Colorado

Page 2
playgrounds, squares, parks, aviation fields, other public ways, grounds, open spaces,
public utilities, and terminals for water, light, sanitation, transportation, and power to be
provided by the municipality and the proposed land uses for the area.
As such, this plan addresses land uses and infrastructure improvement needs if
annexation were to occur in any of the areas within three miles of the City of Fort
Collins’ current municipal boundaries.
This Three Mile Plan describes each of the items listed in the Statute in four categories
as follows:
Transportation-related items:
Streets
Subways
Bridges
Parkways
Aviation Fields
Other Public Ways
Terminals for Transportation
Parks, Natural Areas and Open Lands-
related items:
Waterways
Waterfronts
Playgrounds
Squares
Parks
Grounds
Open Spaces
Utilities and related items:
Public Utilities
Terminals for Water, Light,
Sanitation, and Power Provided
by the Municipality
Proposed Land Uses:
Inside Growth Management Area
(GMA)
Outside Growth Management
Area (GMA)
The Three-Mile Plan lists the plans, policies, maps, and other documents that have
been adopted by the City of Fort Collins City Council, which generally describe the
proposed location, character and extent of the specific characteristics listed above. In
addition, there are some plans and policies that have been adopted, not by the City of
Fort Collins, but by either: Larimer County, CSU or adjoining municipalities and special
districts, as these are also located within the boundaries of the Three-Mile Plan for the
City of Fort Collins, Colorado.
There have been very few changes to plans in the last year. Changes are highlighted
and deletions are struck through. Please see attached draft copy of the Three-Mile Plan
for the City of Fort Collins, Colorado

November 15, 2012 P & Z Meeting
Page 3
The maps included reflect the changes that have occurred to the City limits since 2011.
CONCLUSION
The 2012 update of the Three-Mile Plan for the City of Fort Collins, Colorado, is in
compliance with regulations set forth in the Colorado Revised Statutes Section 31-12-
105.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the Planning and Zoning Board forward a recommendation to City
Council to approve a resolution adopting the updated Three-Mile Plan for the City of
Fort Collins, Colorado.

generally describes the proposed location, character, and extent of
streets, subways, bridges, waterways, waterfronts, parkways,
playgrounds, squares, parks, aviation fields, other public ways,
grounds, open spaces, public utilities, and terminals for water, light,
sanitation, transportation, and power to be provided by the
municipality and the proposed land uses for the area. This plan
shall be updated on an annual basis.

PROJECT: Phase 2 Multi-Family Housing Type 2 Requirements
APPLICANT: City of Fort Collins
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
On October 8, 2012, City Council directed staff to draft an ordinance amending
the LUC to require larger multi-family housing developments (50 dwelling units,
or 75 bedrooms) to be reviewed by the Planning and Zoning Board (Type 2).
Type 2 review requires that the developer hold a pre-submittal neighborhood
meeting. The benefit of the neighborhood meeting is that the public is given an
opportunity to provide input on a project while it is still in the early stages of
development. In recent months several multi-family housing developments have
been appealed by concerned citizens to City Council based on the assertion that
the projects were not compatible with adjacent neighborhoods. This proposed
procedural change seeks to provide more opportunity for the public to participate
in the development review process for larger multi-family housing projects. The
first reading of this Ordinance is scheduled to be heard by City Council on
November 6, 2012, and the second reading is scheduled for November 20, 2012.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval
BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION:
City Council directed staff to move forward with a three-phase approach to Land
Use Code (LUC) changes for multi-family housing. Phase 1 was adopted by City
Council on September 18, 2012. The principal purpose for Phase 2 is to address
intensity concerns as voiced by concerned citizens and recommended in the
West Central Neighborhoods Plan. At the October 8 Work Session, City Staff
presented four potential LUC changes to address these concerns. City Council
provided the following feedback:
1. Consider creating a threshold size for multi-family developments that can
be reviewed administratively (Type 1) up to a maximum of 50 dwelling
units or 75 bedrooms. Any larger development will have to be reviewed by
the Planning and Zoning Board (Type 2).

Council Feedback: City Council directed staff to develop an ordinance and
schedule it for Council Hearing November 6, 2012.
2. Consider creating a 30% limit on the amount of 4-bedroom units that can
be permitted in multi-family developments.
Council Feedback: This option is being forwarded to the Student Housing
Action Plan (SHAP) for further evaluation. (See attachment for more
details.)
3. Consider creating a definition of student housing and/or create a university
district.
Council Feedback: City Council agreed with the staff recommendation not
to define “student” housing. Council directed that the University District
options be moved to the Student Housing Action Plan (SHAP) process for
further vetting.
4. Consider adjusting the Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) Overlay Zone
boundary.
Council Feedback: City Council agreed with the staff recommendation to
leave the TOD boundary in its current location.
PUBLIC OUTREACH:
The Student Housing Action Plan (SHAP) has done extensive outreach to
stakeholders since summer 2011. Six meetings in September were specifically
held in order to hear feedback regarding Phase 2 LUC proposals:
9/6/12 – Affordable Housing Board
9/11/12 – Fort Collins Board of Realtors Governmental Affairs Committee
9/14/12 – P&Z
9/18/12 – Northern Colorado Rental Housing Association
9/26/12 – Landmark Preservation Commission
9/27/12 – Building Review Board
10/17/12 – Women’s Commission
While most of the feedback regarding this change was supportive, the Affordable
Housing Board strongly objected to these requirements. See attached letter.

ORDINANCE NO. ___, 2012

WHEREAS, on October 8, 2012, the City Council directed staff to prepare and present to
the City Council an ordinance amending the Land Use Code to require larger multi-family
housing developments to be reviewed by the Planning and Zoning Board; and

Board is beneficial for an enhanced public project review of larger multi-family housing
developments because review by the Planning and Zoning Board also requires the holding of a
neighborhood meeting which affords the public the opportunity to provide input on a project
while it is still in the early stages of development; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has determined that this Ordinance is in the best interests
of the City because it provides more opportunity for the public to participate in the development
review process for larger multi-family housing development projects.

Re: Phase II Multifamily Regulation Changes
In our role as advisors to council on matters pertaining to affordable housing, we have reviewed the
proposed phase II changes to the multifamily regulations. After review discussion among our board, we
have identified two of the proposed phase II code changes as issues that we feel pertain to affordable
housing. The first is the 25% limit on 4+ bedroom units in multifamily projects, and the second is the
triggering of Planning & Zoning Board (type II) review for multifamily projects with 50 or more units or
75 bedrooms. We make the following recommendations on these two issues:
1. On September 20, 2012 our board voted 5‐0 to support planning staff's recommendation that
multifamily units with 4+ bedroom be limited to no more than 25% of the total number of units.
This seems to be quite reasonable. In our experience, it is important for families to have some
4+ bedroom units available, but from a management standpoint, we agree that having an
overconcentration of this unit type is something to be avoided. We also discussed that we feel
it is important to allow at least this 25% and recommend not to reduce the maximum to any less
than that, however we feel that up to 30% of this unit type could be appropriate.
2. On September 20, 2012 our board voted 5‐0 to recommend to Council that Planning &
Zoning Board (type II) review not be required for multifamily projects with 50 or more units or
75 or more bedrooms. Since many affordable housing projects are above this threshold, this
proposed change may have a direct impact on the new supply of affordable housing in our
community. It is our belief, and appears to be public perception, that the Type II review could
invite more public input into the process as well as lead to delays in the process. These items
can financially impact projects either directly through these delays or through required changes
to projects that are driven more by political and personal agendas rather than strictly by code.
With residential vacancy rates in our community continuing to fall, and affordable housing more
in demand than ever, we believe and suggest that the City do everything it can to encourage
developers to consider affordable housing projects as a viable economic project. Since margins
on these types of projects are typically much smaller than ‘market rate’ projects, requiring a
type II review on many of them, whether by perception or reality, may keep many developers
from considering them as a viable option. We therefore recommend that Council does not
require a type II review for multifamily projects with 50 or more units or 75 or more bedrooms.
We appreciate the opportunity to forward our recommendations to Council on this matter.
PROJECT: Streetscape Design Standards & Guidelines Update
APPLICANT: City of Fort Collins
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The Streetscape Design Standards & Guidelines Update (SDSG) document was initially
adopted in 2001 by the City of Fort Collins and Larimer County as part of the Larimer
County Urban Area Street Standards (LCUASS). Because the document is a part of the
LCUASS, the update will again require joint adoption by City Council.
The SDSG provides details for creating streets that are visually appealing as public
spaces that contribute to Fort Collins’ distinct identity. These standards and guidelines
deal specifically with the treatment of the parkways (between the curb and sidewalk),
medians, intersections, roundabouts, and key gateway areas. The update involves two
main aspects: 1) raising the bar for landscaping in arterial medians, and 2) clarifications
and updated information throughout the entire document.
The document provides citywide context to guide the design and management of
streetscapes in public sector capital projects and private development projects. It is
primarily used by City staff, for use in City projects, operations, and budgets.
Secondarily, it provides parameters for developers and property owners doing
landscape plans that involve City right-of-way.
ACTION REQUESTED:
Staff requests that the Planning and Zoning Board make a recommendation to City
Council regarding the update to the Larimer County Urban Area Street Standards
Appendix C, pertaining to Streetscape Design Standards and Guidelines for the City of
Fort Collins.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of Ordinance A, 2012, Update to Appendix C of the Larimer
County Urban Area Street Standards.
Streetscape Design Standards & Guidelines Update
November 15, 2012 Planning & Zoning Hearing Page 2
Description of Proposed Ordinance
Ordinance A, 2012 updates Appendix C of the Larimer County Urban Area Street
Standards for the City of Fort Collins, initially adopted in 2001. The SDSG document as
revised is an exhibit to the Ordinance. The document incorporates new standards and
guidelines for streetscape design, maintenance, irrigation, planting palette, and
submittal requirements.
Issues/Topics Resolved by Updated Design Standards & Guidelines:
Examples of particular issues or topics for staff work on the SDSG document include:
Recognition of differences among arterial street corridors throughout the city on a
new GIS map
Recognition of exceptional gateway intersection locations on the map, that
warrant heightened investment in urban design
More detailed guidance for evaluating median design and practices with the
City’s vision for a distinctive, world class community
More attention to the role of maintenance and life cycle costs in design.
More attention to the role of an appropriate interdepartmental staff team in the
design and management of streetscapes
Consideration of best practices for landscape plantings including such factors as
image, appropriate use of water, storm runoff and drainage, chemical application
impacts, maintenance, and replacement needs
Consideration of design solutions to acknowledge inevitable vehicular damage to
streetscapes
Considering and clarifying the use of specific design requirements versus general
parameters to be interpreted in the design of each capital project or development
project
Clarification of parkway landscaping between the curb and sidewalk
Considering traffic safety issues for maintenance operations
Identifying best approaches for renovating existing streetscape areas, including
roles, responsibilities, and budget issues in replacing damaged planting beds and
trees, concrete components, signage, lighting, and other design features
Study Background:
The SDSG update project is part of a larger, coordinated effort called the 2012 Streets
and Stormwater Site Development Initiatives (2012 Initiative). The larger effort
Streetscape Design Standards & Guidelines Update
November 15, 2012 Planning & Zoning Hearing Page 3
combines four related projects that will impact street design and infrastructure
improvements within the City. The 2012 Initiative represents a new opportunity to
collaborate among the Planning, Development, and Transportation Service Unit (PDT)
and Utilities on these related projects and adjust current schedules to coordinate issues,
analysis, staff resources, public outreach and recommendations, unified under a central
theme.
Of the four related projects, two include updates to LCUASS. The first is this SDSG
document update, and the second is an update to the street classifications and cross-
section design to include more flexible urban standards. The third related project is the
Low Impact Development Standards project (LID), being developed by the City's
Stormwater department. The fourth related project is a demonstration project
incorporating and testing the elements from the other three efforts. Staff is bringing
forward two of these four projects for City Council consideration for adoption on
December 4, 2012, including an update to the SDSG document, and the newly created
Low Impact Development Standards. The LID project is not being presented to the
Planning and Zoning Board for a recommendation. The other two projects will be
completed later in 2013.
Since the SDSG was first adopted ten years ago, questions and issues have emerged
regarding both the SDSG, and the City’s existing and aging streetscapes. This includes
the quality of design and the type and amount of landscaping and amenities. As a
result, staff was directed to rethink the design approach for arterial streetscapes, and
“raise the bar” in overall appearance from existing standards.
This update of the SDSG will identify options for standards and guidelines to create
more appealing arterial streetscapes, including elements such as landscape plantings,
mulches, use of concrete, irrigation systems, and other design features and amenities.
The new standards will be applicable for new streets, and retrofit projects throughout
the City. The level of design will be elevated even further at key gateway intersections.
These proposed new standards will likely increase cost and potentially impact
maintenance and life cycle. Additionally it will be important to recognize the differences
among various arterials with constrained conditions throughout the City as well as
targeted infill and redevelopment areas.
A key finding has been the need for an active City program to implement these
standards. An interdepartmental Streetscape Team has been formed to review
compliance with new standards, monitor completed projects over time, and establish a
data base to track plant material conditions and selection, maintenance upkeep, and
replacement of landscaping. These efforts are at least as important as the SDSG
document to achieve the quality of planting-based streetscapes that are described in the
document.
The key policy-level issues for the City involve questions of raising the bar for arterial
streetscapes – and medians in particular. This involves corresponding costs for
construction and maintenance, along with increased attention by staff.
Streetscape Design Standards & Guidelines Update
November 15, 2012 Planning & Zoning Hearing Page 4
Besides the larger policy-level issues, the update will also involve clarifications,
adjustments, and additional details regarding specific design components of
streetscapes. For example, the update addresses choices involving landscape
plantings, mulches, use of concrete, irrigation systems, and other design features and
amenities. These choices include consideration of maintenance, renovations, and life
cycle issues in design. They also include consideration of different circumstances
affecting different street segments that have the same classification –especially the
differences among arterial segments in differing contexts throughout the City.
Policy Background:
Major streets are complex and expensive public infrastructure, combining virtually all
utility and transportation systems of the city. Besides all of the functional needs for
traffic and utilities, a clear theme in City Plan is the importance of City streets as public
space that creates first impressions, is experienced by all residents and visitors on a
daily basis, and plays a large role in determining and conveying the civic intention of
Fort Collins as a City.
Closely related to City Plan, the Transportation Master Plan states:
“Travel infrastructure will be high quality and recognized as world class by
residents, visitors, and peers.”
“Transportation infrastructure will be designed to be sensitive to the surrounding
land use context.”
“Plan, build, and maintain streets, trails, intersections, and sidewalks as
attractive public spaces.”
These general themes are supported by a number of Principles and Policies that further
explain the City’s civic intentions for streetscapes to be attractive, well-maintained, up-
to-date, and sensitive to the context of land use, environmental, scenic, aesthetic, and
historic values in the various parts of the city.
Public Process:
The planning process to update the SDSG document has included public outreach
extending over the past two years that included:
Creating a multi-interdepartmental staff team meeting regularly throughout the
process
Providing numerous updates to the Planning and Zoning Board, Transportation
Board, and City Council
Coordinating streetscape construction projects with designers and
interdepartmental staff team
Conducting a public open house meeting (August 9, 2012)

CHAPTER 1
Purpose and Intent
1.1
EXPLANATION
Based on the City’s vision to create a
vibrant, world class community, these
standards set forth a coordinated
approach to design and management of
streets as visually appealing public
spaces that contribute to Fort Collins’
distinct identity.
The term “streetscape” generally
encompasses the visual and pedestrian
environment of a street. These
streetscape standards involve parameters
for tree-lined streets and sidewalks,
other landscaping along street edges,
and landscaped medians in arterial
streets.
In addition to plantings, streetscapes
may also encompass various urban design
elements in certain settings. Examples
include special curb treatments and
median edges, low planter walls and
landscape walls, railings, bollards,
planter pots, stone features, public art,
pylons, specialty lighting, signal and light
pole treatments, specialty paving, transit
stops and furnishings, and the like.
Every streetscape project involves its
own context and constraints. Still, there
is a need for standards to set the bar for
level of quality and investment. These
standards provide a framework for
programming, budgeting, designing,
maintaining, and renovating various
incremental projects as part of a whole
approach.
Exact details must then be adapted to fit
and function with the unique context and
constraints which exist in every project.
The context and constraints include
existing conditions that are expected to
remain for the long term, and future
change planned or envisioned by the
City.
2 ►
CHAPTER 2
Applicability &
Use
2.1
EXPLANATION
These standards apply to all projects
involving streetscapes in the City right-
of-way including:
Private development projects.
City capital projects.
Any other miscellaneous
maintenance and renovation
projects and efforts.
Private development and public capital
projects may involve construction of
new streets, and/or changes to existing
streets.
The standards are intended to be used
by:
Staff, in the design and
management of City streetscapes
over time.
Landscape architects and designers.
Developers and decision makers in
the development review process.
Property owners, where plans and
activities involve streetscapes.
Citizens, City Councils, and staff, in
discussions involving streetscape
issues.

Submittal and
Review
3.1
PRIVATE DEVELOPMENT
APPLICATIONS
Streetscape projects that are part of
development applications follow a
standard City development review
process, which will include
collaboration with staff on streetscape
design.
2.1
CITY CAPITAL PROJECTS
City capital projects involving
streetscapes are reviewed
administratively by interested City
departments in an internal process of
collaboration and routing of plans.
2.1
PROJECT STATEMENT REQUIRED
All streetscape projects involving
landscaping and urban design elements
shall include a Project Statement
developed by City staff in collaboration
with any project consultants, upon
completion of design.
The purpose is to record design intents
and assumptions, and prompt designers
and staff to consider maintenance and
renovation implications related to the
design. The statement shall:
Be concise (Under 3 pages
preferred) and avoid the use of
jargon.
Describe the design intent,
assumptions, and maintenance and
renovations that will be needed
over time to realize the design
intent.
Note outstanding questions and
issues that need to be monitored.
Examples of topics to be summarized
include:
Reasons and concepts for all project
decisions including planting,
irrigation, mulches, boulders,
hardscape, and urban design
elements.
Plant species needing pruning or
trimming, specific weeding control
practices, annual clean-up, dividing
or periodic replacing to achieve the
intent.
Plant species with a limited track
record in streetscapes that warrant
monitoring.
Mulches that need replenishing or
4 ►
stocking of parts, or other
maintenance and renovations.
Any other information useful for
future understanding and
management of the streetscape.
3.4 Project Statement File.
Staff shall maintain Project Statements
for streetscapes on file in an internal
administrative process.

CHAPTER 4
All Streets
The following standards apply to all
street classifications city-wide, except
where alternative standards are
adopted for specific planning areas.
4.1
STREET TREES
4.1.1 Purpose and intent.
Rows of street trees along street edges
are the fundamental, unifying element
of continuity in city streetscapes.
Street trees can be considered as
multi-functional public infrastructure
that:
Defines the street as distinct space,
providing a unifying framework for
abutting developments.
Provides canopy shading along
streets and sidewalks to reduce
glare and summer heat build-up.
Provides a buffer between
pedestrians on the sidewalk and
vehicles in the roadway.
Provides space for streetlights and
signs, and for snow storage in
winter.
Street trees in an arterial parkway.
4.1.2 Tree planting in parkways.
Wherever the sidewalk is separated
from the curb in accordance with the
Larimer County Urban Area Street
Standards, rows of canopy shade trees
shall be planted in the parkway at 30 to
40 foot intervals, centered between
the curb and the sidewalk.
Street trees in a local street parkway.
6 ►
4.1.3 Species groupings within tree
rows.
To the extent reasonably feasible,
street tree rows in landscape areas,
whether inside or outside of the
sidewalk, shall be in groupings of three,
five, or more of a single species. The
intent is to provide a degree of species
diversity within a deliberate, repeating
design pattern.
Designers are encouraged to arrange
changes in species to reflect roadway
conditions, such as open stretches of
roadway between access points,
stretches approaching intersections and
driveways, and/or changes in adjoining
land use.

showing groupings.
7 ►
4.1.4 Street trees in sidewalk
cutouts.
If a project involves a new sidewalk
that must be attached to the curb due
to unique constraints or context, then
the sidewalk width shall be wide
enough to incorporate planting cutouts
with tree grates to the maximum
extent feasible.
To the maximum extent feasible,
such sidewalks shall be 12-15 feet
wide with cutouts at least 25 square
feet at 30- to 50-foot spacing.
Larger cutouts with more than 25
square feet are encouraged.
In all cases, trees in sidewalk
cutouts shall be located at least 8
feet away from buildings and offset
from building entrances.
If such an attached sidewalk has an
abutting landscape area, then 8 feet
shall be the minimum width in
which canopy trees shall be
provided in sidewalk cutouts.
The minimum area of any sidewalk
cutouts shall be 16 square feet,
using 4x4-foot tree grates. Larger
cutouts with more than 16 square
feet of area are encouraged, for
example 4x6-foot or 4x9-foot tree
grates, to support tree health.
8-foot sidewalk with 4’x4’ tree grates, where there is
an abutting landsape area.
The soil surface in a sidewalk cutout
shall be level with the bottom of
the sidewalk slab. Trees shall then
be planted with the top of the root
ball 1-2 inches above the soil
surface.
All tree grates shall be installed per
manufacturer’s instructions.
Frames shall be set in a true, flat
plane to prevent rocking of the
grate. The grate or a template shall
be set in the frame before concrete
is poured to ensure the final
installation is square and flat.
Grates shall be of a pedestrian-safe
ADA-compliant style with slot
openings 3/8-inch or less.
A spacing interval up to 50’ shall be
permitted for street trees in grates
where abutting commercial
buildings face the street with no
intervening vehicle use area
between the street and the
building.
8 ►
4.1.5 Tree planting outside of
sidewalks where existing constraints
preclude parkway tree planting or
sidewalk cutouts.
Where a sidewalk is attached to the
curb and is less than 8 feet in width,
canopy shade trees shall be established
in an area ranging from 3 to 7 feet
behind the sidewalk at 30 to 40 foot
intervals. This standard shall also
apply where unusual constraints
preclude tree planting in a parkway.
Any such planting will typically require
coordination with abutting property
owners.
Examples of street trees outside of sidewalks.
4.1.6 Adjustment of spacing
intervals.
The Director or the City Forester may
approve or require larger or smaller
spacing intervals to better fit the
growth habits of different street tree
species, for safe use of the street or
sidewalk, and to better fit with existing
trees or other existing conditions
unique to the location.
4.1.7 Overhead power line conflict.
Ornamental trees may be planted in
substitution of the canopy shade trees
where overhead lines and fixtures
prevent normal growth and maturity.
9 ►
4.1.8 Spacing from driveways.
No tree shall be planted closer than 8
feet from any driveway or alley.
4.1.9 Tree separation From utilities.
Landscape and utility plans shall be
coordinated. Following are the
minimum dimension requirements for
the most common tree/utility
separations.
40 feet between canopy shade trees
and streetlights. Fifteen (15) feet
between ornamental trees and
streetlights.
10 feet between trees and water or
sewer lines.
4 feet between trees and gas lines.
4 feet between trees and underground
electric lines shall be provided to the
extent reasonably feasible.
Exceptions to these requirements may
occur where utilities are not located in
their standard designated locations, as
approved by the City Forester or the
Director. Tree/utility separations shall
not be used as a means of avoiding the
planting of required street trees.

4.2
PARKWAY LANDSCAPING –
TURFGRASS
4.2.1 Explanation.
Efficiently irrigated, mowed turfgrass
provides a living green edge to city
streets over a long growing season.
The green edge is a unifying element
that can help define City streets as
continuous spaces, in conjunction with
street trees. Like street trees, turf
grass can be considered part of public
infrastructure.
Turfgrass can be a sustainable,
functional landscape solution consistent
with “Xeriscape” and “Water-Wise”
landscaping principles. These
principles recognize turf as an
appropriate use of water in high
visibility, multi-functional, high-use
areas, and parkways typically fit that
description.
Turfgrasss can be relatively drought
tolerant, depending on the species and
cultivar selected. Problems resulting
from periods of neglect are relatively
easy to correct, and turf seldom if ever
needs replacement.
Non-gardeners and typical commercial
crews can readily maintain turfgrass. It
naturally inhibits weeds, and mowing is
an efficient way to control weeds that
do occur. It works well in conjunction
with street trees with tolerance for
partial shading. In winter, dormant
turf is easy to keep tidy and trash-free.
Turf parkways provide continuity and multiple
functions.
4.2.2 Turfgrass generally
encouraged.
Irrigated turfgrass is generally
encouraged as a solution for
landscaping in parkways, except:
Where a plan document
recommends alternatives.
Where the existing development
pattern is characterized by
alternatives to turfgrass as part of
the established context.
4.2.3 Requirements.
Chapter 5 includes parkway landscaping
standards for Arterial Streets. Chapter
6 includes parkway landscaping
standards for Collector and Local
Streets.
11 ►
4.3
PARKWAY LANDSCAPING -
ALTERNATIVES TO TURFGRASS
4.3.1 Explanation. Mulched planting
beds and non-turf ground cover
plantings can be acceptable alternative
solutions to turfgrass for parkway
landscaping in some situations.
These solutions require less water than
turfgrass. With appropriate plant
selection and proper maintenance they
can offer seasonal interest and add
character. While maintenance needs
can be less frequent than a mowing
regime, they can be more complex and
occasionally more time-consuming as
weeding, trimming, mulching and
replacing materials are important to
keep the plantings healthy and
attractive.
Mulched planting bed in the parkway limits
water use and can provide visual interest.
4.3.2 Where Appropriate. Alternatives
to irrigated turfgrass can be an
appropriate choice for property owners
abutting collector and local streets,
depending on whether the parkways
are governed by an approved
Development Plan. Alternatives can
also be appropriate for projects
involving arterial streets in special plan
areas that recommend alternatives.
4.3.3 Requirements.
Chapter 5 includes parkway landscaping
requirements for Arterial Streets.
Chapter 6 includes parkway landscaping
requirements for Collector and Local
Streets.
12 ►
4.4
SIGHT DISTANCE TRIANGLES AT
INTERSECTIONS
A visual sight distance triangle, free of
any structures or landscape elements
shall be maintained at street
intersections and driveways, as
required in Figure 7-16 in the Larimer
County Urban Area Street Standards.
Site Distance Triangle concept.
Deciduous trees may be permitted to
encroach into the clearance triangle
provided that the lowest leaves shall be
at least six (6) feet from grade and are
spaced so that they do not obstruct line
of sight.
4.5
LOW IMPACT DEVELOPMENT –
STORMWATER MANAGEMENT
4.5.1 Purpose and intent.
In a “Low Impact Development” (LID)
approach to streetscapes, landscaped
parkways and medians are depressed
rather than raised, to help manage
stormwater runoff closer to the source.
Depressed landscape areas are
designed with special soil mixes,
corresponding plantings, and other
design techniques to infiltrate and
filter runoff, instead of concentrating
and conveying all runoff to centralized
detention and treatment facilities.
The City’s Stormwater Criteria Manual,
which governs the management of
stormwater in the City, describes
design, plant selection, and
maintenance techniques applicable to
streetscapes.
4.5.2 Applicability.
LID techniques and technologies are
encouraged whenever the drainage
patterns and the infrastructure allows
for such measures to be used.
4.5.2 Low Impact Development
streetscape projects.
In any streetscape where a Low Impact
Development approach is used,
Streetscape Standards shall be adapted
or modified as needed per the
Stormwater Criteria Manual.

CHAPTER 5
ARTERIAL STREETS
The City’s arterial streets are complex
and expensive public infrastructure,
combining virtually all utility and
transportation systems of the city.
Besides the functional needs for traffic
and utilities, a pervasive theme
throughout the City’s Comprehensive
Plan is the importance of streets as
public space. As high-visibility public
space, arterials create first
impressions, are experienced by all
residents on a daily basis, and play a
large role in determining the character
and conveying the civic intention of
Fort Collins as a City.
Arterial streetscapes vary widely, from
the Downtown core, to suburban
residential areas, to the Natural Areas
in the Poudre River valley.
Downtown core.
Suburban residential area.
Poudre River valley.
Some arterials are distinguished by the
inclusion of medians along street
corridors and in roundabouts. Besides
managing traffic, medians provide very
high-visibility space for landscaping,
and provide a refuge for pedestrians
crossing the road. Medians can
humanize the scale of a wide street,
and add beauty and civic identity.
They are a highly visible mainstay of
urban design, and thus are a major
aspect of the City’s streetscape efforts.

ARTERIAL STREETSCAPES MAP
5.1.1 Purpose and Intent. The
Arterial Streetscapes Map recognizes
differences between various arterials
throughout the City. It indicates where
a “Standard Arterial Streetscape”
approach should apply, and where
other corridor segments and gateway
intersections warrant their own
tailored approach to streetscape design
and management.
The map works in conjunction with
design standards in the following
chapters to guide investment in
streetscapes throughout the City.
Types of Arterial Streetscapes:
Standard Arterial Streetscapes.
Enhanced Travel Corridors.

5.2
ARTERIAL STREETSCAPE DESIGN:
STANDARD ARTERIAL
STREETSCAPES - MEDIANS
The primary focus of “Standard Arterial
Streetscapes” is on medians, including
the medians in roundabouts.
The whole approach of the median
standards emphasizes mixed plantings
of perennials, grasses, shrubs, and tree
groupings, with a mulched ground
surface. The intent is to reflect Fort
Collins’ western regional character
with regionally-specific plants suited to
the harsh roadway environment.
Planting compositions will include:
Varied plant forms, textures, and
foliage in addition to flowers.
Coordinated, repeating groupings of
plants to form an overall pattern.
Accent groupings to add detail and
variation within the overall pattern.
Related elements such as mulches
and boulders.
Illustration of standard arterial median landscaping approach.
18 ►
5.2.1 Median width measurements.
All references to median widths are
from face of curb to face of curb.
5.2.2 Median grading.
The ground surface in landscaped
medians shall be crowned with a high
point in the center, with slopes not to
exceed 7:1 or approximately 14
percent. Exception: where a median
has a cross slope due to opposing
traffic lanes and curbs having different
elevations, a crown may not be
feasible.
5.2.3 Median grading in
roundabouts.
The ground surface in center medians
in roundabouts shall be crowned with
slopes not to exceed 7:1 or
approximately 14 percent. The intent
is to increase the visual prominence of
landscaping, and work in conjunction
with planting and hardscape elements
to achieve year-round screening of
visibility across the roundabout at a
height of at least 4 feet.
5.2.4 Median planting general
approach.
Tree groupings and mixed plantings of
other plant types shall be established
and maintained in medians.
Exceptions:
Trees shall not be planted in medians
less than seven feet wide.
Medians less than three feet wide shall
be paved rather than planted.
19 ►
5.2.5 Median tree groupings:
Canopy shade trees, ornamental
trees, and evergreen trees shall be
planted in groups of three, five, or
more to the extent reasonably
feasible. Open intervals shall be
provided between the groups.
Open intervals between tree groups
shall constitute 30%-60% of the
length of a given median. These
percentages are intended to convey
a general proportion rather than a
precisely measured formula.
Determination of the open intervals
shall be based on the design intent
and growth assumptions for trees
over a given time frame, made by
the designer.
Where median length allows,
repetition of tree groupings is
encouraged.
5.2.5 Tree Separation from median
edges.
Separation of trees from concrete
edges shall be provided by designers as
needed based on assumptions for
growth and pruning over a given time
frame. The following minimum
separations shall be provided:
Large canopy trees – 2.5 feet.
Ornamental trees – 1.5 feet.
Large evergreen trees – 7 feet.
Small evergreen trees – 5 feet.
5.2.6 Evergreen tree
setbacks from face of curbs.
Evergreen trees shall be set
back from the face of curbs:
Large evergreen trees – 9
feet.
Small evergreen trees – 7
feet.
5.2.7 Staggered median
tree groupings if space
permits.
Tree groupings shall be
staggered rather than aligned
in straight rows, where
median width permits a
stagger of at least two feet.
This equates to 15 feet in a
median where typical
concrete edges total 8 feet.
Example plan view of a median showing
tree groupings.
20 ►
5.2.8 Mixed plantings.
Mixed plantings of perennials,
ornamental grasses, shrubs, and
shrubby trees shall be planted and
maintained to cover at least 75% of the
median area within 5 years, based on
assumptions for growth and
maintenance of plants by the designer.
Mixed plantings shall be composed
of groups of at least 3 plants per
group, with each group composed of
a single species.
Mixed plantings shall be composed
for understory conditions at tree
groupings, and open conditions in
intervals between tree groupings.
Mixed planting in a newly planted median.
Mixed plantings shall be arranged in
an informal pattern rather than
formal rows or geometrically-shaped
groupings. The informal pattern
shall include coordinated, repeating
groupings of plants in an overall
composition, rather than random
placement. Plantings shall be
designed and maintained to span
the full width of the median at
maturity.
Mixed planting standards apply to
all medians 3 feet wide or wider.

“Standard Arterial
Streetscape” approach, it
may be appropriate for
special planning areas.
22 ►
5.2.9 Mixed plantings – two options
for intensity.
Two options for mixed plantings shall
be permitted:
Perennial Variety Style.
Shrub Variety Style.
Perennial Variety Style: this option
emphasizes the maximum degree of
planting intensity, color, and variety,
with perennials used for the full length
of a median. This results in a higher
number of different plant groupings
and higher total number of plants to
achieve the required 75% plant
coverage.
An average of at least 4 groupings of
perennial or ornamental grasses, and 3
groupings of shrubs per 250 square feet
shall be planted and maintained.
Groupings shall be composed of single
species with at least 3 plants. Extra
emphasis on color and/or texture over
a long growing season shall be
implemented in open areas at the ends
of medians at intersections.

23 ►
Shrub Variety Style: this option allows
the use of larger shrubs and shrubby
trees to achieve the required 75%
coverage with a lower number of
different plant groupings and lower
total number of plants. An average of
at least 3 groupings of shrubs per 250
square feet shall be planted and
maintained. Groupings shall be
composed of single species with at
least 3 plants.
In open areas at the ends of medians at
intersections, at least 4 perennial or
ornamental grass groupings and 3 shrub
groupings shall be planted and
maintained, with emphasis on color
and/or texture over a long growing
season.
Example of a mixed shrub planting with regionally
adapted species (not a streetscape).
5.2.10 Decision on options.
The option to be used in any project
shall be approved by the Director based
on consideration of the relative
importance of a given median to
community image, intensity of adjacent
land uses, the width and length of the
median, and City budget
considerations. In general, the
Perennial Variety Style is more
appropriate in higher-activity, mixed-
use areas. The Shrub Variety Style is
generally more appropriate in
residential and other lower-activity
areas.

5.2.11 Median noses and narrow
ribbons - planting.
Median areas 3-7 feet wide shall be
planted with low mixed planting under
30 inches in height.
5.2.12 Plants and mulches in
conjunction.
Plant groupings shall be designed in
association with either cobble mulch or
organic mulch. Plants selected to
feature green leaves and flowers are
generally complemented by organic
mulch, while stone mulch can detract
from their effects. Stone mulch can
complement evergreens, other plants
selected to feature distinct forms or
textures, and xeric plants grey-green
foliage.
When mulches are mixed, the patterns
should be in long overlapping curves,
and not rectangular blocks or strips
along the edge.
5.2.13 Mulches.
Organic mulch shall be used, either
solely or in combination with stone
mulch to add visual interest with a
design pattern. Organic mulch shall be
undyed shredded woody material. If a
combination is used, the pattern shall
be designed in conjunction with plant
groupings, and the pattern shall span
the full width of the median rather
than dividing the median lengthwise
into linear strips or lining the edge of
the median.
This - mulch pattern spans the median in a sweeping
curve.
Not this – mulch pattern in linear strips.
This – mulch pattern in sweeping curves designed
with the direction of travel in mind.
Not this – mulch pattern in linear strips.
Not this – mulch pattern in blocks.
Stone mulch, if used, shall consist of 2-
4-inch stone combined with groupings
of 4-12 inch or larger stone hand placed
as accents for visual interest and to
separate abutting organic and stone
mulches. Larger stone shall be placed
25 ►
first, to be embedded, mingled, and
settled with the smaller stone rather
than loosely dumped.
Stone mulch placement example.
5.2.14 Boulders.
Boulders may be used to structure and
complement plant groupings. They
shall be designed and placed in
deliberate groupings in association with
the planting and mulch design pattern,
and any low walls or slopes. They shall
be placed prior to planting and
mulching, and slightly sunk into the
ground, to be embedded and mingled
with mulches and plantings. Permitted
boulders shall be tan Masonville
sandstone quarry blocks, rounded river
boulders, or weathered moss rock
boulders.
Selection shall be based on continuing
an established theme, or establishing a
theme where none exists. Selection of
stone should be coordinated with the
staff streetscape team department to
ensure appropriate stones are being
selected for the theme.

5.2.15 Median hardscape – edges
and paving.
Hardscape treatments depend on
different median widths and different
contexts throughout the city:
In median areas that are at least 7 feet
wide, a double curb edge shall be
installed where a project includes 1) a
new median, or 2) an existing median
that lacks splash blocks or has splash
blocks that warrant replacement. The
purposes are to provide additional
depth for planting areas, space for
maintenance personnel, an additional
correction barrier for vehicles leaving
26 ►
the roadway, and a visual design that
complements the curb and gutter.
Where a median tapers to less than 7
feet, the upper curb shall return across
the median to enclose the upper
landscape area.
Double curb design.
Illustration of double curb.
Exception to the double curb:
Sloped concrete splash blocks with
integral tan tint and exposed
aggregate finish shall be permitted
in lieu of a double curb if a median
project is located in a street
segment or area of the city where
existing splash blocks have a
previously established theme and
are expected to remain for a long
term.
Sloped splash block design.
Standard Arterial Streetscape corridors throughout
the city include extensive segments with existing
sloped concrete splash blocks, per a former standard.
Where a median is less than 7 feet
wide, the edge shall be a standard
6-inch curb with no double curb or
splash block.
Median areas under 3 feet wide
shall be paved rather than planted.
Paving shall be rectangular concrete
or brick pavers set on a concrete
base.
27 ►
Exception to pavers: where existing
tan exposed-aggregate concrete
median paving establishes a
prevailing theme, it shall be
permitted for paving of medians
under 3 feet wide.
Tan exposed-aggregate concrete median paving.
5.2.16 Roundabout planting and
hardscape:
Roundabout medians in Standard
Arterial Streetscape areas shall be
developed and maintained with tree
groupings and mixed plantings in the
Perennial Variety Style, with
boulders and a mulched ground
surface. Landscape walls may be
included to reinforce the pattern
and provide year-round structure for
plantings.
Apron paving and any special curbs
shall be designed for visual interest
with tinted, textured concrete,
pavers, or the like.
Design of each individual
roundabout shall be unique unless
multiple roundabouts are related in
a pair or group as part of a single
traffic management project. Design
elements include planting themes,
plant species, apron paving, and
other hardscape details.
Narrow median area 7
feet wide – mixed planting and
ornamental trees to provide a sense of
pedestrial scale.
Narrow median area 3-7 feet wide
– mixed planting, no trees.
Narrow median area
under 3 feet wide –
pavers.

ARTERIAL STREETSCAPE DESIGN:
STANDARD ARTERIAL
STREETSCAPES - PARKWAYS
Parkways in Standard Arterial
Streetscapes shall consist of irrigated
turfgrass and street tree plantings as
described in Chapter 4.
Arterial street parkway.
5.4
ARTERIAL STREETSCAPE DESIGN:
ENHANCED TRAVEL CORRIDORS
(ETC’S)
5.3.1 Explanation.
Standard Arterial Streetscape standards
may or may not be adequate and
appropriate for design and
maintenance of these corridors,
depending on unique circumstances in
each ETC.
These arterial corridors are intended to
evolve as a framework that
incorporates and supports high
frequency transit with special emphasis
on walkability and bicycling.
For streetscape projects where
previous ETC plans do not define a
streetscape approach, the Standard
Arterial Streetscape standards in
Section 5.2 shall be considered as a
basis for the level of quality and
investment.
Design and maintenance shall then be
adapted to unique circumstances in
each corridor as appropriate, based on
study of and response to:
Guiding policies for ETC’s.
Established precedents in the
corridor that are consistent with the
vision and policies for ETC’s.
Examples of potential design variations
include:
Planting patterns to reinforce the
pattern of transit facilities.
Hardscape elements – edge
treatments, paving, planters, and
the like, particularly where related
to transit stops and shelters.
Urban design amenities in a
coordinated program, particularly
including paving, furnishings, and
structures at transit stops and
shelters.
In all cases, design should include
repeating elements to create a theme
for the corridor and avoid clutter of
unrelated elements.
31 ►
5.5
ARTERIAL STREETSCAPE DESIGN:
SPECIAL PLANNING AREAS
5.4.1 Explanation.
Special planning areas have subarea
plans, corridor plans, or other planning
documents that recognize their unique
context and character. The level of
specific direction for streetscapes
varies among the plans.
These areas warrant their own
distinctive streetscapes with tailored
design and maintenance
characteristics, rather than the
Standard Arterial Streetcape.
For streetscape projects where plan
documents are not definitive, the
Standard Arterial Streetscape standards
in Section 5.2 shall be considered as a
basis for the level of quality and
investment, and may be considered as
a reference for design.
Design and maintenance shall then be
adapted by project designers and staff
based on study of and response to the
context and any established precedents
that are consistent with the vision and
policies for the area, and are thus
expected to remain.
Examples of potential design variations
on the Standard Arterial Streetscape
include:
Distinct patterns of trees and other
plant groupings.
Signature plant species.
Hardscape elements – edge
treatments, paving, low planter
walls or landscape walls, and the
like.
Urban design amenities such as
paving, street furnishings, and
transit stop shelters or other
themed structures in a coordinated
program.
In all cases, design should include
repeating elements to create a theme
for the area and avoid clutter.

5.6
ARTERIAL STREETSCAPE DESIGN:
CONSTRAINED CORRIDORS AND
SEGMENTS
5.5.1 Explanation.
These are arterial corridors and
segments where the Standard Arterial
Streetscape is not feasible due to
physical constraints of existing
32 ►
Example of a constrained arterial (East Prospect).
Streetscape projects in these areas
shall incorporate aspects of a Standard
Arterial Streetscape to the extent
reasonably feasible. Each individual
project must determine the allocation
of available space and the compromises
on each component of the street.
In general, the most important aspects
are safe sidewalks and street trees as
described in Chapter 4.
5.7
GATEWAY INTERSECTIONS
5.6.1 Purpose and intent.
Gateway intersections are exceptional
locations where the Standard Arterial
Streetscape shall be augmented with
additional intensity of streetscape
development. These locations warrant
the highest level of investment for
design, construction and maintenance.
The intent is to highlight entryways
into the city, and also edges of districts
within the city. The locations generally
consist of intersections, extending out
as appropriate to include approaching
medians, up to about 1/8 mile.
The point is for the user to notice the
change in passing through, recognize it
as an entry, and have a "sense of
arrival."
5.4.2 Special Planning Areas.
Where a gateway is designated in a
Special Planning Area on the Arterial
Streetscapes Map, any previous
planning direction shall be factored
into design and maintenance decisions
in a streetscape project. In addition,
designers and staff should study and
factor in the unique context to build
upon or adapt the Standard Arterial
Streetscape approach.
5.6.2 Components.
Gateways shall be enhanced with a
coordinated program of components
such as:
Plantings of annual flowers in beds
or large pots.
Railings or low walls.
Bollards.
Pedestrian lighting/ other specialty
lighting.
Public art.
Columns, pylons or other urban
design structures.
Traffic signal or light pole
treatments.
Color themes in repeated
components.

Example of gateway enhancements – annuals,
planter pots on plinths, railings, pedestrian lights, and
public art pylons, and tinted concrete paving in
addition to standard plant groupings.

CHAPTER 6
COLLECTOR AND LOCAL STREETS
6.1
PARKWAY LANDSCAPING
6.1.1 Purpose and Intent.
Streetscapes on collector and local streets typically consist of parkways only. The
primary intent for parkway landscaping is to provide a setting for street trees, and
work in conjunction with street trees for a number of purposes:
Define streets as the framework of public space within which individual properties
fit.
Contribute to the attractiveness and visual interest of the street edge.
Mark the transition from public to private space.
Blend public interests in street infrastructure with interests of abutting property
owners who are required to maintain these parkways by City Code.
6.1.2 Two approaches.
Two main approaches to landscaping parkways are permitted: turf grass, and non-turf
ground cover plantings. These involve different pros and cons as noted in chapter 4.
6.1.3 New development landscape plans.
Where a developer desires to offer non-turf grass options to homeowners, the
landscape plan may contain a note and drawings specifying options for non-turf ground
cover plantings, with consistent mulch and a recommended plant palette.
6.1.4 Approved development plans govern.
For developments with approved landscape plans, the parkway landscaping must be in
accordance with the plan.
A Homeowners Association (HOA), or a property owner with approval from the HOA,
may request a Minor Amendment to an approved plan for parkway landscaping.
6.1.5 Turfgrass.
Irrigated turfgrass shall be permitted and is encouraged as the landscape solution that
is simplest for long-term maintenance. With proper soil preparation and an efficient
irrigation system, the water required can be reasonable and appropriate given the
36 ►
multiple functions and benefits of turf grass noted in chapter 4. The choice of grass
species can make an incremental difference in water use needs.
6.1.4 Turfgrass.
Irrigated turfgrass shall be permitted and is encouraged as the landscape solution that
is simplest to maintain over a long term. With proper soil preparation and an efficient
irrigation system, the water required can be reasonable and appropriate given the
multiple functions and benefits of turf grass noted in chapter 4. The choice of grass
species can make an incremental difference in water regime requirements.
Turfgrass is particularly appropriate where it is congruent with multiple properties
along a street.
Turfgrass parkway congruent among properties along the street, and with adjoining landscaping.
6.1.6 Non-turf ground cover plantings.
Alternatives to turf grass shall be permitted, including mulched planting beds and
ground cover plantings. With an understanding of plant selection and proper irrigation
and maintenance, these plantings can provide seasonal interest with little water
required.
Property owners are encouraged to incorporate choices that provide a degree of
congruence with neighboring properties in terms of mulches and character of plantings.

37 ►
6.1.6 Requirements for Non-Turf Ground Cover Plantings:
At least 50 percent of the area shall be covered with live plant material after 2
years of establishment.
Plant materials shall be under 2 feet tall if within 5 feet of a driveway and under 3
feet tall in other areas. Owners are encouraged to select plants that maintain
these height limits with little or no pruning.
Plant materials must not obscure the line of sight for traffic or obstruct the
sidewalk. Any plantings of any height that obstruct the line of sight or cause safety
concerns may be required to be kept trimmed to a lower height or removed so
visibility is provided/maintained.
No fences or thorny/prickly plant material.
In mulched planting beds, the soil surface shall be 2-3 inches below the curb and
sidewalk to allow for mulch to be contained. No additional timbers, concrete
products, or the like shall be included, to avoid clutter.
Plat materials and mulch must be kept off the street and sidewalk.
Avoid cutting tree roots if converting an established turf parkway to a planting bed.
Within a tree’s dripline, minimize grade change to protect the tree roots.
No edging shall be used to divide the parkway into thinner strips. If edging is
needed to separate turf and mulch areas perpendicular to the street, such edging
shall be flush or within 1 inch of the ground surface, so it is not a visible element.
This – organic mulch, healthy plants, and stepping
stones if needed.
Not this – gravel that is not congruent with any other
portions of the streetscape, dead plants, weeds, and
exposed fabric prevent this parkway from contributing to
the street as attractive public space.

Chapter 7
MAINTENANCE STANDARDS
7.1 Purpose.
To ensure a consistent, high quality appearance for all streetscapes, whether
maintained by the City, its agents, or by private developers, businesses, or individuals.
Given the high visibility of city streetscapes, the public is able to observe maintenance
practices in the field as well as the results of that maintenance. The public perception
of a well-maintained landscape is promoted by practices which benefit the health of
the landscape materials and achieve a neat, well-cared for appearance. Quality
maintenance is a function of workmanship, funding, knowledge, and technique. These
standards will ensure that all streetscapes are cared for in a manner which reflects the
high esteem that citizens have for these important public spaces. Generally, all
landscaping shall be maintained in a healthy condition throughout the growing season.
A neat and attractive appearance is essential. Irrigation systems, structures, and
sidewalks shall be maintained to represent the original integrity of the design and
installation.
7.2 Tree Planting and Maintenance Standards.
The City of Fort Collins Tree Management Standards and Best Management Practices
serve as the standard for planting and maintenance for all trees in the public rights-of-
way and apply whether the work is performed for the City contractually, by the City, or
by private entities or individuals. Exceptions to the standards and practices require
written approval of the City Forester.
7.3 Street Tree Permits.
A free permit must be obtained from the City Forester before any planting, pruning,
removal, or destruction of any tree or shrub within the public right-of-way of any street
or sidewalk. Businesses performing this work must be licensed by the City. No tree shall
be cut back in such a manner that its health will be impaired or it creates an unsafe
condition. An exception to this rule may occur to provide emergency relief of an
immediate danger to persons or property. Any such emergency procedures must be
reported promptly to the City Forester with plans for completion or follow-up work
submitted for approval. See the City Forestry Standards and Specifications on “Pruning
and Removal Specifications” for details on acceptable pruning practices.
All work requiring a permit shall be conducted in a manner as to cause the least
possible interference with or annoyance to others. Pedestrian and vehicular traffic shall
be allowed to pass through the work areas only under conditions of safety and with as
little inconvenience and delay as possible.
40 ►
7.4 Maintenance Responsibilities.
Maintenance of parkway planting of streetscapes on Collector and Local streets is
the responsibility of the adjacent property owner per City Code. Surface
maintenance of streetscapes on arterial streets with the following characteristics
will be the responsibility of the City.
The parkway is considerably isolated from the adjacent private property(s) and its
location in reference to the street is such that it is highly visible to the general
public.
There is no individual, organization, or homeowners’ association that could be fairly
allocated the landscape maintenance based on their benefit. This situation usually
occurs where the parkway is to the back of a private property, separated from it
with a privacy fence and located along an arterial street. However, a gate in the
fence indicates the ability of the property owner to maintain the parkway.
Street trees located on the City right-of-way are the responsibility of the City
Forestry Division for replacing and management regardless of who maintains the
surface. Four different scenarios for planting and continuing maintenance are
possible.
The developer installs the landscape and the City takes responsibility for tree
maintenance, after a two-year period in which specific obligations are met. The
surface (turf, shrubs, irrigation) is still maintained by the developer, homeowners’
association, or other responsible party.
The developer installs the landscape and after meeting obligations during the first
two years, the City takes responsibility for both tree and surface maintenance.
Medians in arterial streets are maintained by the City.
The landscape is part of a Capital Improvements Project and a contractor does the
landscape work. The City is responsible for tree maintenance and may or may not
be responsible for surface maintenance.
Due to street oversizing, the City installs and maintains the trees although once
again, the surface may or may not be maintained by the City.
Adopt A Median. The City encourages homeowners’ associations, business groups,
and other civic groups to take part in the Adopt-A-Median program. Contact the
City Parks Division at 221-6660 for further information.
41 ►
7.5 Approval.
Any landscaping not to these standards may be rejected by the City for inclusion in its
maintenance program. Developers shall notify the City Parks Division and have a walk
through with Parks and Forestry Division staff at the end of the developer’s
maintenance period. Any defects in the landscaping or irrigation system shall be
corrected by the developer.
7.6 Maintenance Standards.
To ensure a quality appearance of the landscape, trash and weeds will be removed on
a regular basis. In addition, proper maintenance of plant materials is necessary for
plant health and appearance. This maintenance includes:
7.6.1 Trees.
Public trees shall be managed in such a manner as to promote their general health
by providing the necessary cultural practices which may include insect and disease
control, fertilization, irrigation, staking, guying, wrapping, cabling, bracing, and
pruning.
Trees shall be maintained in such a manner so as not to endanger, interfere, or
otherwise conflict with requirements of safe public use of an area. Hanging limb and
branch height shall be maintained fourteen (14) feet above streets and eight (8)
feet above sidewalks.
Every owner of any tree overhanging any street or public right-of-way within the
City shall prune the branches of the tree so that such branches shall not interfere
with the safe use of the street or sidewalk or obstruct the view of any street
intersection.
The City is responsible for trimming trees per the City schedule and as needed.
Excessive sprout growth from the stems and root collars of trees shall be removed
each year early in the growing season by the Forestry Division or the City’s
designated contractor after City maintenance responsibility begins.
Suckers shall be removed from trees as they appear. Clipping them off shall be the
preferred method or as directed by Forestry Division.
7.6.2 Turf grass.
Grasses shall be maintained at a three inch cut during the growing season. Trimming
shall also be on a weekly basis concurrent with mowing to match height of open turf
area around obstructions – generally hard to reach areas such as trees, curbs, vacuum
breakers, etc. Turf grass shall be edged concurrent with mowing; visible clippings shall
be removed from sidewalks and streets after each mowing, trimming, or edging.
Fertilization of turf grass shall be based on soil tests. Litter and leaves shall be picked
up as needed to ensure a quality appearance.
42 ►
7.6.3. Native grass.
Mowing shall be performed depending on the growth of the turf. This turf will grow
rapidly in the early season and go dormant with the heat of summer and may pick up
again in the cool of fall. The last mowing should be timed to either pick up or mulch
the remaining leaves of the season. Litter and leaves shall be picked up as needed to
ensure a quality appearance.
7.6.4 Shrubs.
Shrubs shall be pruned as needed to maintain size, remove dead or diseased branches,
and ensure plant health. Shrubs must not extend outside the median line or over
splash block. All dead shrubs shall be removed immediately, and replaced as
necessary. Where within parkways, shrubs must not extend over the curb head or over
the sidewalk.
7.6.5 Perennials.
Perennials shall be deadheaded and trimmed throughout the growing season.
Depending upon the variety, perennials should be cut back in late fall or early spring
prior to new growth. All dead perennials shall be removed immediately, and replaced
as necessary.
7.6.6 Annuals.
Planting of annuals in the spring shall be in designated annual flower beds. Annuals
must be regularly deadheaded of spent blooms. Annuals should be removed in the fall
after the first hard freeze.
7.6.7 Mulch.
Organic mulch will be replaced every 2-3 years as needed. Rock mulch will be
replaced as needed.
7.6.8 Weeds.
All landscaped areas within the specified maintenance areas shall be kept free of
weeds. (WEEDS=Any plant material not intended for placement in the landscape.)
Weeding may be done manually or by the use of selective herbicide and or pre-
emergent. The use of any restricted herbicides or soil sterilants is prohibited. In
accordance with Best Management Practices observation of the effectiveness of the
herbicide shall be monitored at this time.

CHAPTER 8
IRRIGATION STANDARDS
8.1 Purpose and Intent.
Irrigation to median and parkway plant material is necessary to provide adequate
moisture to maintain a high quality appearance and long term health for plants.
It is the City’s intent to be good stewards and assure a high quality appearance along
the landscaped right-of-way in a sustainable manner.
All irrigation systems will be tailor designed to meet the needs of each unique
landscape by following best management practices and up to date technology.
Without proper irrigation design and maintenance, good stewardship of the landscapes
is not achievable.
Proper watering systems help achieve the City goals and citizens expectations of public
spaces and thoroughfares.
8.1. General.
8.1.1. Irrigation design shall be done by a certified irrigation designer or someone
approved by the City Parks Division.
8.1.2. Irrigation system design and installation shall be monitored, inspected, and
approved by the City Parks Division. Irrigation systems shall be installed and
maintained so that irrigation equipment will not spray onto any streets, walkways, or
features and structures that could be damaged from water.
8.1.3. The irrigation system must comply with the International Plumbing Code and with
the City of Fort Collins Electrical Code.
8.1.4. Any deviation in taps from the approved construction plans must be approved by
City of Fort Collins Utilities prior to installation. Any water service line shall be
coordinated with City of Fort Collins Utilities, 221-6700.
8.1.5. Any deviation in layout of the irrigation system from the approved construction
plans must be reviewed and approved by the City Parks Division prior to or during
installation.
8.1.6. The irrigation system must be designed to provide full coverage and matched
precipitation rates. Lateral piping shall be sized based on flow demands (gpm's);
velocities shall not exceed five and a half (5.5) feet per second. Xeriscape principals
shall be utilized in the design of the irrigation system. All designs should meet the
industry’s Best Management Practices from the Irrigation Association and ALCC
(Associate Landscape Contractors of Colorado). Newly installed irrigation systems will
be subject to water audits and must meet minimum requirements. The minimum
distribution uniformity for spray heads should be .55, rotor heads should be .65, stream
44 ►
rotors should be .75 and impacts should be .65. Some design considerations shall
include: 1) shrub and perennial beds are to be zoned separately from turf areas; 2)
sloped areas will have separate zoning for heads at the higher elevations from those at
the lower elevation; 3) areas with different exposures are to be zoned separately; and
4) In-head check valvesare to be used for all areas adjacent to walkways and at the
bottom of berms and pond areas.
8.2 Materials.
8.2.1 Contractor is responsible for supplying saddle for the PVC or AC pipe.
8.2.2. Backflow device and water meter per the City of Fort Collins standards and the
flow meter to be Data Industrial.
8.2.2a A curb stop shall be installed between the meter pit and the backflow for
isolation purposes. The curb stop should be sleeved from the valve to grade and
covered with a round valve box.
8.2.2b A blowout tube no larger than ¼” should be placed between the meter pit-curb
stop and the back flow. The injection port on the blow out tube must be sweated on
attaching a female adapter with a threaded brass plug.
8.2.2c A blowout tee shall be installed immediately downstream of the back flow. This
is preferred over a quick coupler.
45 ►
8.2.3. Copper is to be type K rigid conforming to ASTM Standard B88.
8.2.4. Mainline: Class 200 PVC, NSF approved. If three (3) inches or larger use ringtite
pipe.
8.2.5. Laterals:
8.2.5.a. Two (2) inches or larger: Class 200 PVC, NSF approved.
8.2.5.b. One and a half (1.5) inches or one (1) inch: Class 200 PVC, NSF approved.
8.2.5.c. No laterals smaller than one (1) inch.
8.2.5.d. Trickle tubing shall be weather and UV resistant material.
8.2.5.e. Polyethylene Drip Pipe: NSF approved, SDR pressure rated pipe, only as
approved for drip applications.
8.2.6. Pipe Fittings:
9.2.6.a. Funny pipe (pop-up spray heads only): to be compatible to the elbows needed
for the sprinkler heads.
8.2.6.b. Lateral fittings: Schedule 40, Type 1, PVC solvent weld with ASTM Standards
D2466 and D1784
8.2.6.c. Copper or cast bronze fittings, soldered or threaded per installation details for

Boards and Commissions Coordinator
FROM: Andy Smith, Chair
Planning and Zoning Board
DATE: October 31, 2012
SUBJECT: Planning and Zoning Board Work Program - 2013
During 2012, the Planning and Zoning Board saw an increase in the number of development
applications and has reviewed and approved some notable developments including Legacy
Senior Residences, Regency Lakeview, Link-n-Greens, and Bucking Horse. A number of
appeals on Type 1 and Type 2 projects were filed on projects approved during the year and
included Legacy Senior Residences, The District at Campus West, Aspen Heights, and
Regency Lakeview.
The Board also reviewed and recommended approval of the Wild Plum Farm 1st & 2nd, Wood
Street, Forney, Kechter 1st & 2nd, and Kechter Crossing Annexations. A number of policy plans
were reviewed by the Board in 2012, including the Outdoor Vendor Study, Downtown Parking
Plan, Streetscape Standards, and Oil and Gas Standards. Land Use Code changes to medical
marijuana, appeal process, bicycle parking standards, and multi-family housing were also
reviewed by the Board.
Development applications increased through 2012 and are expected to continue to increase in
2013, based on recent trends in Conceptual Review requests and submittals, as well as phone
inquiries. Many of the anticipated projects will be on infill/redevelopment sites, so the Board will
be addressing compatibility issues in existing neighborhoods on these projects. The level of
interest in developments that have either expired, or for which extensions are being requested
has also increased. These developments have been in a holding pattern for several years and
with the increased availability of investment money, projects that are already entitled are very
appealing to the development industry.
Several key development proposals are anticipated during 2013 for the Board’s review and
include the Link-n-Greens PDP, Foothills Mall redevelopment and associated multi-family
housing, Pateros Creek PDP, and the Banner Health Medical Campus on Harmony Road.
In addition to reviewing and evaluating development proposals, the Board will address important
land use policy issues during 2013, including:
Commercial and River Downtown Redevelopment District Architectural Design Standards -
This project was originally two separate projects that came out of the last City Plan update and
were merged due to having similar subject matter. The River Redevelopment District vision is
for redevelopment design to complement the existing historic structures and reflect the
2013 Planning and Zoning Board Work Plan

agricultural-industrial aspects of the area’s history. The commercial development topic includes
issues of community identity, pedestrian orientation and visual quality of individual buildings and
developments and how those are brought together to shape streetscape, walkways, plazas and
other areas that adjoin the public right-of-way.
East Side/West Side Character Study – The East Side/West Side Character Study continued
through 2012 and has a November 27, 2012 work session scheduled with City Council. Staff
expects to bring recommendations to the Board in early 2013 in response to Council direction
given at the work session. The focus of this study is to identify the characteristics of these
neighborhoods that create their unique character and context and identify potential tools for
retaining and enhancing these features.
Harmony Corridor Plan Update/Gateway area – The Harmony Corridor Plan was adopted in
1991 and updated in 2003. In 2006, the Harmony Corridor Standards & Guidelines were
adopted. The update to this plan will focus on the Harmony Road gateway at I-25 and will
create design guidelines for future development in the gateway area.
Land Use Code Amendments – In 2013, there will continue to be a major effort to identify and
recommend code revisions to City Council to implement principles of Plan Fort Collins, as well
as other plans and policies. Council’s preference for important code changes is to bring
changes on an as-needed basis, rather than waiting for the annual update package. This will
result in the Board being asked more frequently to make recommendations to City Council on
code amendments, including the following items:
Multi-family housing related code changes, as a result of the Student Housing Action
Plan;
Urban Agricultural Land Use code changes – this effort has been an extension of the
2012 work program to ensure the Land Use Code supports the community’s desires in
relation to urban agriculture practices both when and where appropriate. This project
will resume in early 2013.
Non-Native Trees – In October 2012, staff discussed whether or not the current
regulations related to non-native trees, specifically Siberian elm and Russian olives,
adequately addressed the ecological value these trees can provide. The proposed
changes to the Code will be brought to the Board in early 2013.
Lincoln Avenue Corridor Strategic Plan – This plan will provide a community-supported vision
and strategies to implement that vision for the corridor area. The project will explore how the
“Catalyst Project Area” concept can be achieved and provide a model for sustainability,
collaboration and partnerships, transportation and social connections, and implement a “great
green street” along with other unique ideas to strengthen existing area attributes.
Mason Street Corridor – The Choice Center (re-development of the Johnson Mobile Home Park
in 221 dwelling units/676 beds) is nearing completion. This project, along with the Mason
Corridor/MAX improvements may act as a catalyst for other redevelopment along the Corridor.
Future redevelopment proposals along the corridor may propose significant physical changes to
the existing urban form and could include increased building height, unique architectural design,
reduced vehicular parking spaces, and neighborhood compatibility issues.
Mid-town Urban Design Plan – This plan will guide the design of future redevelopment in the
Mid-town area, and identify opportunities to further enhance streetscapes and multi-modal
connectivity. It is expected to address connectivity along/across College Avenue, integrate the
Mason Trial and MAX stops with other ped connections, develop a parking strategy that

supports desired densities, provide guidelines for site planning, architecture, and massing of
buildings, identify catalyst sites, and provide way-finding and signage recommendations.
Construction of the new MAX guideway and stations along the Mason Corridor is tentatively
scheduled to be completed by winter of 2013.
Nature in the City Amenities in Mixed-Use Areas – This project was identified from the City Plan
update and is intended to encourage the integration of unique landscape features into the
design and architecture of development and capital projects. These features may range from
informal and naturalized, to highly structured and maintained features (i.e. trees groves within a
project, storm water facilities that become naturalized over time, walls with vines).
Oil and Gas Exploration and Production Regulations – Assuming that the proposed Oil and Gas
Regulations are adopted by City Council, the Board would receive memo-based updates once a
month on the issue in order to more quickly respond to the need to adapt the regulations.
Planning Development Overlay District (PDOD) – In 2012, the PDOD tool was refined by staff
and a six-month Pilot Project was proposed to confirm whether the tool would work as intended
and to assess interest from the development community. The pilot project was approved by the
Board in mid-2012 and staff is meeting with Council members to further understand Council’s
concerns about the Pilot Project. The Pilot Project is expected to be considered by City council
in early 2013 and the Board is expected to review the first PDOD project sometime in 2013,
depending on the level of interest from the development community.
Student Housing Action Plan – This joint effort between C.S.U., neighbors, developers and
other stakeholders to identity strategies to address the increasing need for student housing
within the context of the existing neighborhoods will continue into 2013 and may result in
additional Land Use Code changes for multi-family housing.
West Central Neighborhood Plan Update – The West Central Neighborhood Plan was adopted
in 1999 for the area that is generally bounded in an “L” shape by Mulberry Street on the north,
Shields Street, and the BNSF Rail line on the east, Drake Road on the south, and Taft Hill Road
on the west. in 1999, issues have emerged that warrant a plan update. The update this plan will
begin in January 2013 and assess such things as student housing project impacts,
neighborhood compatibility of new development, land use/zoning, and impacts of traffic/parking
near CSU and adjoining neighborhoods.

Westside Neighborhood: Lot Frontage
The Lot Frontage map shows patterns in width of lots throughout the neighborhood. Combined with lot size, the frontage helps determine
if a lot may legally be subdivided. In the Westside, lot frontage is typically 75 feet or less, with some areas of slightly wider lots. Exceptions
occur on corner lots, along curvilinear streets, and where "H"-shaped alleys occur. Several areas along W. Mountain Avenue also differ,
having much narrower lot frontage than the neighborhood's average.

Westside Neighborhood: Lot Size
The Lot Size map shows patterns in square footage of lots throughout the neighborhood. In the Westside, most blocks have a predomi-
nant lot size, with the exception of curvilinear street patterns and smaller or subdivided corner lots. Areas with "H"-shaped alleys will also
have a large range in lot sizes, typically with several larger lots along a block of smaller lots. More variety in lot size also occurs along W.
Mountain Avenue, though several individual blocks remain consistent.

Westside Neighborhood: Building Age
The Building Age map shows patterns in construction throughout the history of the neighborhood. In the Westside, the oldest areas spread
out along W. Mountain Avenue and the areas closest to downtown. These areas filled in slowly between the 1890s and the 1920s. The edges
of the neighborhood furthest from downtown developed in much shorter periods of time between the 1940s and the 1960s, leading to less
variety in building types in these areas. Recent construction (the darkest blue) is scattered throughout the area and most lots are within a
four-block radius of recent construction.

Eastside Neighborhood: Lot Frontage
The Lot Frontage map shows patterns in width of lots throughout the neighborhood. Combined with lot size, the frontage will help de-
termine if a lot may legally be subdivided. In the Eastside, lot frontage is typically 75 feet or less. Exceptions occur on corner lots, along
curvilinear streets, and near E. Elizabeth Drive and Mathews Street where larger lot patterns occur.

Eastside Neighborhood: Building Age
The Building Age map shows patterns in construction throughout the history of the neighborhood. In the Eastside the oldest areas are north
of E. Mulberry Street and then moving south along Peterson, Whedbee and Smith Streets. These areas filled in slowly between the 1890s
and the 1920s. The south and east portions of the neighborhood, near Circle Drive and Eastdale Drive, developed in a much shorter period
of time in the 1950s and '60s, leading to less variety in building types in these areas. Recent construction (the darkest blue) is relatively
sparse and scattered throughout the area.

Solar Access Forms
The city’s existing solar access regulations limit
the amount of shadow that a building can cast on a
neighboring property. In some cases this may result
in a building form that is tallest near the southern
property line and steps down on the north side.
Not Suggested
Addressing solar access is a tool choice in Strategy Option 5. It is not sug-
gested for further development. Although they directly address a key issue,
solar access regulations can be complex to create and administer. Their im-
pact also differs greatly by lot size and orientation, which could create restric-
tive conditions on some lots. In addition, suggested tools to address building
massing such as adjusting measurement of height at the side setback and
addressing the character of side walls would help address concerns with solar
access.
However, City Council may determine that this tool should be evaluated further.
Scope

tools that could be adopted
and implemented relatively
quickly. These "Quick Wins"
tools would help address
identified objectives and is-
sues while additional tools
are evaluated.
Promoting the City's existing
design assistance program
and expanding variance no-
tification are suggested as
potential early implementa-
tion tools. They are indicated
with diamond symbols in the
following pages.
Issues include:
A. Additions and new con-
struction that appear to
be overly large in relation
to surrounding houses
or the neighborhood
B. New building walls or
elements that appear to
loom over neighbors
C. Additions or new con-
struction that reduce solar
access on neighboring lots
D. Additions or new construc-
tion that incorporate in-
compatible design features
E. Additions or new con-
struction that impact
trees and green space
F. New large houses that
replace valued older/
more affordable homes
buildings and people is used
as a rationale for accommo-
dating new buildings that are
different, and thereby add to
the diversity of the area. For
others, the perceived "same-
ness" of new construction is
actually diluting the diversity
of the neighborhoods.

Discussion 1 Hour
• Do the recommended early implementation
tools provide sufficient “quick wins” to address
issues and objectives while additional tools are
developed?
• How should the recommended additional tools be
calibrated and applied?
• What are some community outreach ideas for
generating feedback on the strategy?
Wrap Up & Next Steps 5 Minutes

(recognizing that some tools may only apply under
certain circumstances)?
• Which tools require additional information to
support further discussion?
• Which tools should be considered for early
implementation?

friendly neighborhoods
with a sense of community
and architectural diversity.
• Buyers most often seek
1,500 to 2,200 square foot
homes with two to three
bedrooms.
• Most buyers do not want
to be subject to restrictive
homeowner's association
rules.
