DRAFT January 16, 2015 <br /> <br />3.4 Special Development Plan (SDP): The JDA may approve an SDP for projects comprising 10 <br />acres or more which require additional flexibility in the application of the TRC not otherwise <br />available under Table 3-3 above. JDA approval of an SDP is subject to a 4/5 vote of the <br />JDA. The SDP process may be used only to authorize a less restrictive standard and may not <br />be used to impose a higher standard than is established under the TRC on the subject <br />property. Public notices shall be issued for all SDP hearings; however, such hearings may be <br />combined with any other JDA hearing process, such as for consideration of approval of a <br />project and its related transactional documents. <br />(a) In reviewing any SDP, the JDA shall use the following criteria: <br /> <br />i. The goals, intent and vision of the adopted Regulating Plan Map and TCAAP <br />Master Plan; <br /> <br /> ii. The extent to which the proposal fits the adjoining design context by providing <br />appropriate building scale and use transitions; <br /> <br /> iii. The extent to which the proposal provides public benefits such as usable civic and <br />open spaces, livable streets, affordable housing, living wage jobs, structured <br />and/or shared parking and linkages to transit; <br /> <br /> iv. The extent to which the proposal does not hinder future opportunities for higher <br />intensity development; <br /> <br /> v. Considerations of health and welfare to the general public; and <br /> <br /> vi. The extent to which the proposal provided a demonstration of advanced energy <br /> resilience which may have an educational value. <br /> <br />(b) In reviewing any SDP, the JDA shall not grant flexibility for the following: <br />i. Deviation from requirements of Section 5.0 (Schedule of Uses); <br />ii. Building height; and <br />iii. Definitions included in Section 4.0 including density parameters for residential <br />land uses; and <br />iv. Clear height. <br />(c) Special Development Plan Submittal: <br />a. Applicant shall meet with JDA Development staff to clarify and determine SDP <br />requirements and discuss applicant's development concept. <br /> <br />iii. A combination of the above <br /> <br />3. Other <br />a. Any other numerical <br />standard in the code <br />A modification up to 10% (increase or <br />decrease) <br />ii. A modification of a numerical standard is needed to <br />accommodate existing conditions. <br />iii. The proposed development still meets the intent of <br />theTRC. <br />b. Phased <br />Developments <br />Deferment of building frontage <br />standards <br />i.
