17-7-6.1 Purpose.
This chapter supplements the mixed-use zone Chapter 17-7-5 to provide additional standards for the development of land parcels within the 7200 South overlay zone. This chapter informs the owners of the standards that will be applied in approving or disapproving proposed developments. The goal is to:
A. Facilitate transition of the 7200 South corridor from single family residential neighborhood to a mix of commercial and residential uses;
B. Guide the development of a consistently high quality environment;
C. Assure and enhance the investment of those locating within the 7200 South corridor;
D. Promote economic development on a pedestrian scale;
E. Protect surrounding stable neighborhoods from the potential adverse effects of commercial uses;
F. Require thematic landscaping to provide a distinctive visual quality to the overlay area; and
G. Require pedestrian connections within and among developments and between adjacent neighborhoods. (Ord. 11-20-2001 § 2 (part))
