Public buildings. <br /> <br />Special requirements <br />It is the intent of these provisions to allow for flexibility of land uses and exceptions to <br />traditional dimensional standards, when other conditions and special requirements are met. <br />These provisions are not meant to allow unrestricted leapfrogging of land uses or disregard <br />for compatibility of land uses. <br /> <br />Greater flexibility in zoning regulations often leads to more subjectivity in land use <br />interpretations. In making zoning decisions about land use compatibility and dimensional <br />criteria for uses and structures, the City shall have broad discretion to protect the public <br />health, safety and welfare; and to protect the residential integrity of the Mixed Use District <br />and surrounding residential neighborhoods. <br /> <br />Setbacks and lot coverage for new or expanded structures shall be determined through the <br />Site Plan Review process by the Planning and Zoning Commission. Factors to be <br />considered in the determination shall include; but not be limited to, existing setbacks, <br />structural appearance, site drainage, public access, pedestrian safety, automobile safety, <br />intersection visibility, height, parking, landscaping and other site design factors.
