RESIDENTIAL-10-TRADITIONAL COMMUNITY DESIGN DISTRICT (R-10-TCD)
Sections:
22.40.005 Development standards.
22.40.001 Purpose.
The R-10-TCD zoning district is intended to implement the comprehensive plan’s medium density residential – traditional community design overlay land use designation. The district standards encourage a broad range of housing types, including single-family, duplex, and multifamily structures containing up to eight units per building when this facilitates the protection of critical areas or the retention of significant open space. Development plans must use neo-traditional designs that achieve pedestrian-friendly, human-scale neighborhoods. These neighborhoods will have interconnected street patterns, buildings that face streets, sidewalks or other public space, small setbacks, parking placed to the rear of buildings with access from alleys where feasible, and a variety of architectural building styles, design features and amenities which provide visual interest and reinforce the human-scale character of the neighborhood. (Ord. 1246 § 6, 2000).
22.40.002 Permitted uses.
Uses permitted subject to planned development approval in accordance with Chapter 22.76 FMC and administrative design review approval in accordance with Chapter 22.66 FMC:
(a) Single-family dwelling.
(b) Family group home, including adult family home.
