Page 2 of 7 Site Development Considerations Permitted Uses The TCAAP Redevelopment Code (TRC) allows the following permitted uses in the Civic District: • Community Center (may include uses such as a fitness center, gym, offices, event center, indoor playground, etc.) • Library • Municipal Building • Public Park Facilities • Theater, performing arts center Building and Site Development Standards The City would need to develop the property in conformance with the building and site development standards in the TRC. The majority of these regulations are found in Section 6.7 - Civic District, which includes building setback, height, and surface parking setback requirements (see Attachment B). In addition, the development would be required to maintain a minimum permeable ground area of 10 percent of the total lot area (Section 9.4 of the TRC). Staff has developed a graphic to illustrate the portion of the lot that could be developed based on the regulations listed above (Attachment C). The minimum building setback along all property lines is 10 feet. The property has frontage on a Pedestrian-Friendly corridor along the north side of the site, which would require 50 percent of the building frontage be placed between 10 feet and 25 feet from the property line. Along the east side of the property, 60 percent of the building frontage will need to be placed between 10 feet and 15 feet from the property line because of the open space frontage. Surface parking would need to be a minimum of three feet behind the building façade line along the north and east sides of the property, and three feet behind the property line along the south and west. The maximum building height permitted is 52 feet, or four stories. Final building plans will need to follow the building design requirements in Section 7 of the TRC. These requirements include items such as building orientation, façade composition, and building materials. This topic will be discussed at a future date once further work has been completed on the proposed programming for the property. Parking Off-street parking requirements are determined by the type of land use proposed for a site. Based on the permitted uses in the Civic District, staff believes the following parking ratios would be the most applicable: • Office: 1 space per 250 square feet of gross floor area • Indoor Recreation: 1 space per 200 square feet non-tennis/racquetball court area • Assembly Uses: 1 space per 3 seats The Master Developer has proposed an underground parking structure for the Town Center that is expected to include between 140 and 175 parking stalls designated for the civic site.
