SLOPES VARIANCE FINDINGS IN SUMMARY • Variances for driveway construction on slopes have been granted for sites with similar constraints. • Driveway construction on slopes is necessary to allow for a reasonable use of the property and is not a design decision. • The project does not create a significant probability of harmful environmental consequences. • The variance will result in water quality that is at least equal to the water quality achievable without the variance. FINDINGS OF FACT PER LDC 25-8-41 • City Staff determined the Findings of Fact have been met per LDC 25-8-41 for the requested variances • Consequently, City Staff recommended approval of the variances to the Environmental Commission (6/5/2024 Environmental Commission meeting) with variance conditions STAFF VARIANCE CONDITIONS ENVIRONMENTAL COMMISSION VOTE The Environmental Commission may accept or reject City Staff’s recommendation APPLICANT PRESENTATION

Affordability Impact Statement DB90 Revision Initiated by: Resolution No. 20240201-026 Case number: C20-2024-011 Date: 6/24/2024 Proposed Regulation The proposed amendment would do the following: - Amends the commercial ground floor requirement to match VMU standards, requiring 75% of the ground-floor along the principal street to be dedicated to commercial uses, rather than 75% of the entire building's ground floor. - Expands the permitted commercial uses from VMU for office base zoning to DB-90, allowing Consumer Convenience Services, Food Sales, General Retail Sales (convenience or general), and Restaurants (limited or general) without drive-in service. This amendment enables office districts to include a broader range of commercial uses. - Aligns screening requirements with amendments to citywide compatibility policy made by Council upon adoption of Ordinance 20240516-002 on May 16, 2024. - Clarifies that §25-2-652(B), which overrides conflicting provisions unless they are less restrictive, refers to site development regulations only. Land Use/Zoning Impacts on Housing Costs The proposed changes would have a neutral impact on housing costs via land use and zoning. The proposed changes clarify regulations to align DB90 with existing citywide standards and density bonus programs. Impact on Development Cost The proposed changes would have a neutral impact on development costs. The proposed changes clarify regulations to align DB90 with existing citywide standards and density bonus programs. Impact on Affordable Housing The proposed changes would have a positive impact on affordable housing. Requiring ground floor commercial uses only along the principal street, rather than the entire building’s ground floor, matches VMU standards. This change is intended to increase participation in the DB90 density bonus program, as it can be difficult to lease up ground floor commercial, especially when the commercial use is not facing onto the principal street. Increased participation in this program will eventually lead to a rise in the number of affordable housing units citywide. City Policies Implemented Other Housing Policy Considerations None.

24 C20-2024-011 - DB90 Revisions Staff Report — original pdf
ORDINANCE AMENDMENT REVIEW SHEET Amendment: C20-2024-011 Density Bonus 90 Revisions Amend City Code Title 25 (Land Development) to revise uses, site development regulations, density bonus requirements, and compatibility standards applicable in density bonus 90 (DB90) combining district. Description: Background: In 2021, amendments to the City’s Vertical Mixed Use (VMU) Overlay, including the creation of a second-tier bonus program known as VMU2, were initiated through City Council Resolution No. 20211118-052. The resolution directed staff to process code amendments to allow for an additional 30’ in height beyond the base zone standards for developments participating in the new tier of the density bonus program and proposed affordability requirements for such developments. In June of 2022, City Council adopted Ordinance No. 20220609-080, implementing the code amendments initiated through the 2021 Council resolution. However, in December 2023, Ordinance No. 20220609-080, Ordinance No. 20221201-056, and Ordinance No. 20221201-055 were invalidated. In February 2024, City Council adopted Ordinance No. 20240229-073, which created the Density Bonus 90 (DB90) combining district. This new district is similar to the provisions in VMU2 and is available citywide through the rezoning process. Summary of Proposed Code Amendment: The proposed amendment to §25-2-652 would do the following: - Amend the commercial ground floor requirement to match VMU standards, requiring 75% of the ground floor frontage along the principal street to be designed for commercial use with an additional clarification regarding civic uses - Add the allowed commercial uses from VMU to office base zoning districts - Align compatibility screening requirements with amendments to citywide policy made by Council through Ordinance 20240516-004 - Clarify that provisions of the DB90 program govern over a conflicting provision of the Land Development Code or other ordinance Proposed Text Amendment(s): See draft ordinance. Staff Recommendation: Recommended Staff supports the proposed amendments, which aim to increase participation in the density bonus program and align its regulations with citywide standards. The modification to commercial ground floor requirements will ensure that developments under the DB90 program resemble existing VMU developments, enabling staff to review these applications consistently, and facilitating a streamlined approval process. Further, an analysis of recent VMU developments revealed that the program's requirements result in only 8% to 15% of the ground floor square footage being allocated to commercial use, which is significantly below the 75% required under DB90. Allowing for additional commercial uses within office base zoning districts will enable true mixed-use developments that provide a variety …
