10-40.40.010 Purpose

This division provides regulatory standards governing land use, building form, and development within transect zones. The standards in this division are a reflection of the community’s vision for implementing the intent of the General Plan to preserve natural areas, such as the Coconino National Forest, to create walkable, mixed-use neighborhoods, and to reinforce downtown. The transect zones have been created in relation to the context and setting of each area, focusing on physical form rather than separation of uses as an organizing principle. Where parcels have both non-transect and transect zones applied, the transect zones are optional, and are provided as alternatives to the underlying non-transect zones described in the previous division. They are intended to ensure that proposed development is compatible with existing and future development and produces an environment of desirable character, consistent with the General Plan.

10-40.40.020 Applicability

A.    The requirements of this division shall apply to all proposed development within transect zones, and shall be considered in combination with any applicable standards in Division 10-40.50, Overlay Zones, and the standards for the applicable zone in Chapter 10-50, Supplemental to Zones.

B.    In transect zones where a historic overlay district applies (See Section 10-40.50.030, Overlay Zones), the historic district standards shall apply in addition to those applied through the transect zones.

C.    Based on the Zoning Map or an approved regulating plan, a parcel may be designated with both a non-transect and a transect zone designation. In this case, a property owner may apply either the standards of the non-transect zone or the transect zone, but in no case may the standards from both zones be applied at the same time. If a property owner decides to select a transect zone they must sign before a notary public a contractual agreement that runs with the land on a form prepared by the City and approved by the City Attorney’s Office, stating that transect zone standards hold precedence over the non-transect zone standards when in conflict. The City shall record the contractual agreement.

10-40.40.030 T1 Natural (T1) Standards

A. Zone Intent and Description

The T1 Natural (T1) zone applies to areas of the City designated to preserve lands that do not allow significant development of any kind. It consists of lands unsuitable for settlement due to topography, hydrology or vegetation. These lands are intended to promote the management and preservation of habitat types which form a part of the unique environmental characteristics of the City and often contain trails.

10-40.40.050 T3 Neighborhood I (T3N.1) Standards

A. Zone Intent and Description

The primary intent of this zone is to reinforce established neighborhoods and maintain neighborhood stability in walkable urban areas. These neighborhoods are compact enough to support basic public transit alternatives. While residential is the primary use type, homeowner offices and small neighborhood supporting uses, such as music classes and artist studios, are encouraged in ancillary buildings to further reinforce the walkability of the neighborhood.

This zone is intended to preserve and build upon the existing pattern of development. New development, renovations, and additions should therefore be in character and scale with existing valued patterns.

This zone may also be applied to the creation of new neighborhoods in combination with, or independent of, the T3N.2 zone. It provides lower maximum building height and larger setbacks than T3N.2.

10-40.40.070 T4 Neighborhood 1 (T4N.1) Standards

A. Zone Intent and Description

The primary intent of this zone is to reinforce established neighborhoods and to maintain neighborhood stability in walkable urban areas, while allowing such areas to evolve with the integration of small building footprints and medium density building types. Appropriate dwelling units might include bungalow courts, duplexes, and apartment houses, which are typically smaller than those found in other zones. The mixture of building types and unit sizes provides a variety of housing choices which reinforces the walkable nature of the neighborhood, supports adjacent neighborhood-serving commercial uses, and supports basic public transportation alternatives.

While residential is the primary use type in T4N.1 zone, homeowner offices and small neighborhood supporting uses, such as music classes and artist studios, are encouraged in ancillary buildings to further reinforce the walkability of the neighborhood.

The intent of the T4N.1-O sub-zone is to provide the appropriate form and scale for areas that are transitional between commercial and residential uses, and to allow the neighborhood commercial areas to expand as the market demand grows. The intended form is the same as T4N.1, but the allowed range of use types is broader and includes commercial and other nonresidential uses as well as residential uses.

The T4N.1 zone and T4N.1-O sub-zone may also be applied to the creation of new neighborhoods in combination with, or independent of, the T4N.2 zone. They provide a lower maximum building height and larger setbacks than T4N.2.

10-40.40.080 T4 Neighborhood 2 (T4N.2) Standards

A. Zone Intent and Description

The primary intent of this zone is to create new walkable urban neighborhoods that are in character with Flagstaff’s older neighborhoods in combination with other transect zones. This zone integrates small-footprint, medium-density building types, such as bungalow courts, duplexes, and apartment houses. Dwelling units within these building types are likely smaller than those found in other zones. The mixture of building types and unit sizes provides a variety of housing choices which reinforces the walkable nature of the neighborhood, supports adjacent neighborhood-serving commercial uses, and supports basic public transportation alternatives.

While residential is the primary use type in T4N.2 zone, homeowner offices and small neighborhood supporting uses, such as music classes and artist studios, are encouraged in ancillary buildings to further reinforce the walkability of these neighborhoods.

The intent of the T4N.2-O sub-zone is to provide the appropriate form and scale for areas that are transitional between commercial and residential uses, and to allow the neighborhood commercial areas to expand as the market demand grows. The intended form is the same as T4N.2, but the allowed range of use types is broader and includes commercial and other nonresidential uses as well as residential uses.

The T4N.2 zone and T4N.2-O sub-zone can also can be used for application to the creation of new neighborhoods in combination with, or independent of, the T4N.1 zone. They provide a higher maximum building height and smaller setbacks than T4N.1.

10-40.40.090 T5 Main Street (T5) Standards

A. Zone Intent and Description

The primary intent of this zone is to reinforce the vitality of the downtown area adjacent to the core, to allow it to expand and evolve, and to provide an appropriate transition into existing neighborhoods. It provides neighborhood-serving commercial and retail uses in a main street form, and provides a variety of urban housing choices, typically in smaller units. These aspects reinforce the walkable nature of the neighborhood, and support basic public transportation alternatives.

The intent of the T5-O sub-zone is to provide the appropriate form and scale for areas that are transitional between commercial and residential uses, and to allow the neighborhood commercial areas to expand as the market demand grows. The intended form of this zone is the same as T5, but the allowed range of use types is broader, residential uses are allowed on the ground floor, and the Courtyard Apartment Building Type is allowed.

The zone and sub-zone are intended to preserve and build upon the existing pattern of development. New development, renovations, and additions should be in character and scale with existing valued patterns.

10-40.40.100 T6 Downtown (T6) Standards

A. Zone Intent and Description

The primary intent of this zone is to reinforce and enhance the vibrant, walkable urban downtown core, and to enable it to evolve into a complete neighborhood. This zone allows a wide range of uses including the following: locally and regionally serving commercial, retail, and entertainment; civic and public, and a variety of housing choices. These aspects reinforce the walkable nature of the neighborhood, and provide a primary hub for public transportation alternatives.

This zone is intended to preserve and build upon the existing pattern of development. New development, renovations, and additions should therefore be in character and scale with existing valued patterns.
