THE REQUEST The owner of property on NE 207 Street at NE 30 Avenue is proposing a mixed -use development proposal on its parcel. The west half of the property is designated as Business & Office future land use category and is zoned B2, Community Business District on the City Zoning Map. The east half of the property is designated as Medium -High Density Residential and is zoned RMF3A, Multifamily Medium Density Residential District. The development proposal contains structures with a mix of commercial and residential uses. Those mixed -use structures are not permitted in either the B2 or RMF3A zoning districts. The request is to add a new mixed -use district to the City Code to facilitate the current and any future similar development proposals.

This district allows residential and non - residential mixed -use development that generally complies with the RMF3 and B1 zoning districts and also allows a lifestyle center that includes some B2 zoning district uses. The Land Development Regulations also currently contain a Town Center Marine (TC2) District, again included in the original 1999 Code, to guide mixed -use development in what was then the marine industry area on and around NE 188 Street. This district allows residential and non - residential mixed -use development that generally complies with the RMF3 and 131 zoning district, but also recognizes the marine industry uses as permitted uses.

Specifically, when greater heights are immediately adjacent to existing development such height shall be graduated by steps so that the part of the structure within fifty (50) feet of the property boundary is the same or lower height as existing adjacent residential development. Development in the TC3 district shall substantially comply with the applicable "Town Center Design Guidelines ", as provided by the City Manager and adopted through Ordinance No. 2006 -02 on February 7, 2006. ANALYSIS The proposed Town Center Neighborhood (TC3) District, detailed above, has been drafted using the same format as the TC1 and TC2 districts but is distinct from the TC1 and TC2 zones in that it is intended to guide mixed -use development in existing neighborhoods in the City. It proposes a specific mix of residential and non - residential development that generally complies with the RMF3 and 131 zoning districts, similar to the TC1 and TC2 districts, but without the lifestyle center use permitted in the TC1 district and without the more expansive marine industry uses in the TC2 district. The TC3 district adds assisted living facility, indoor and outdoor commercial recreation and hotel to the required mix of non - residential uses, reduces maximum residential density from 25 dwelling units per acre as permitted in the TC1 and TC2 district to 20 dwelling units per acre and contains the same conditional and prohibited uses as the TC1 district. The site development standards are similar to the TC1 district, with the exception of the minimum lot area which is increased from 16,000 square feet to 5 gross acres to be consistent with the corresponding lot size requirement in the Town Center future land use category in the City's Comprehensive Plan and with the exception for increased lot coverage from 45 percent to 55 percent if more than 80 percent of required parking spaces is provided in a parking structure. 7 There is one amendment proposed to the zoning category subsequent to the City staff presentation at the May, 2013 workshop meeting. As presented, the zone requires a mix of residential and non - residential uses at a ratio between 3:1 and 1:3. The applicant has requested that this ratio be changed to 3.5:1 to 1:3.5, due to the decrease in maximum number of residential dwelling units. The existing TC1 and TC2 zoning categories allow a maximum of 25 dwelling units per acre. This proposed TC3 district allows a maximum of 20 dwelling units per acre. By reducing the maximum number of dwelling units per acre, and thus square footage of the residential portion of the mix, the ratio causes a corresponding decrease in the non - residential portion of the development. The ratio between 3.5:1 to 1:3.5 will provide an equilibrium between the desired reduction in residential units and development of non - residential uses. Any proposal to develop in accordance with the TC3 district will require an underlying future land use designation of Town Center as described in the City's Comprehensive Plan. The Town Center future land use category encourages hubs for future urban development intended to serve the City's existing and future residents and businesses with design- unified development providing direct accessibility by mass transit service and high quality urban design. It provides for a design that encourages convenient, internal pedestrian circulation and is intended to create identifiable centers of activity with a distinctive sense of place. The proposed Town Center Neighborhood use regulations are compatible with this future land use category language.
