Writing sample MIXED-USE ZONING DISTRICT ORDINANCE for Augusta Road, Greenville, SC This use is intended for sites that are either currently developed or recommended for development primarily for local retail and service uses in areas either within or within close proximity single-unit detached residential uses. This zone allows for low density development of retail, service, office and residential uses. This zone is not intended to provide for major employment, so office uses are limited. The following model zoning district provisions represent a commercial zoning classification that permits, a vertical mix of commercial and residential uses within the same building. The district is intended to accommodate a physical pattern of development often found along village main streets and in neighborhood commercial areas of older cities. All the current land uses may remain the same. This new zone of Mixed-Use Commercial shall act as an overlay district and will supersede all other zones. The current comprehensive plan does not have a Mixed-Use District. This district is of importance as it allows different uses to coexist simultaneously. Commercial, Mixed-Use District Purpose The purposes of the Commercial, Mixed-Use District is to: (1) Accommodate mixed-use buildings with neighborhood-serving retail, service, and other uses on the ground floor and residential units above the nonresidential space; (2) Encourage development that exhibits the physical design characteristics of pedestrian-oriented, storefront-style shopping streets; and (3) Promote the health and well-being of residents by encouraging physical activity, alternative transportation, and greater social interaction. (4) To provide for more efficient land use, particularly a development pattern more flexible in adjusting to market conditions and local growth fluctuations. Definitions As used in this ordinance, the following words and terms shall have the meanings specified herein: “Mixed-use Buildingâ€? means a building that contains at least one floor devoted to allowed nonresidential uses and at least one devoted to allowed residential uses. Allowed Uses Indoor/Outdoor Operations All permitted uses in the MXCD district must be conducted within completely enclosed buildings unless otherwise expressly authorized. This requirement does not apply to off-street parking or loading areas, automated teller machines, or outdoor seating areas. The permitted uses are dwelling, single unit detached; all types of home based business enterprise, some institutional uses limited to 6000 square feet. Other uses will be allowed under conditional Use including temporary uses, small commercial, office and industrial uses. The residential uses of semi-detached, townhouses and attached dwelling shall not be allowed. The commercial uses which do not produce any negative externalities may be allowed subject to requirements. Build-To Lines Where a build-to line established in the Plan is required, at least 70 percent of the length of the building wall facing that line must be set at the build-to line. Development must also comply with the building restriction line provisions set forth. Aesthetic and Visual Characteristics for All Zones Building facades should have a range of heights of between 35 and 50 feet at the street. Additional height up to 75 feet at the street may be allowed where recommended by the Plan or where approved by the Mayor and Council or Planning Commission as part of a Project Plan or site plan. Facades and Exterior Walls Including Sides and Backs Buildings should be designed in a way that avoids massive scale and uniform and impersonal appearance and that will provide visual interest consistent with the community's identity, character, and scale. It is recommended that building walls greater than 100 feet long include projections, recessions, or other treatments sufficient to reduce the unbroken massing of the façade along all sides of the building facing public streets.
