The C-3-R district focuses on maintaining a continuous flow of retail and consumer services, promoting pedestrian engagement and amenities, while minimizing conflicts between shoppers and vehicles.
The number of residential units in the C-3-R district is unlimited. Density is controlled by the allowed height and bulk, along with the required setbacks, exposure, and open space for each parcel.
Dwelling Unit: A room or suite of two or more rooms that is designed for, or is occupied by, one family doing its own cooking therein and having only one kitchen.
Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU): Also known as a Secondary Unit or In-Law Unit. It is accessory to at least one other Dwelling Unit on the same lot. A detached ADU should not share structural walls with the primary structure on the lot.
Junior Accessory Dwelling Unit (JADU): JADU is a secondary living space within a single-family home, limited to 500 square feet. It must have its own entrance, an efficiency kitchen, and can either share or have separate sanitation facilities. The property owner must live on-site unless a government agency, land trust, or housing organization owns the unit.
This District is a regional center for comparison shopper retailing and direct consumer services. It covers a compact area with a distinctive urban character, consists of uses with cumulative customer attraction and compatibility, and is easily traversed on foot. Like the adjacent Downtown Office District, this District is well-served by City and regional transit, with automobile parking best located at its perimeter. Within the District, continuity of retail and consumer service uses is emphasized, with encouragement of pedestrian interest and amenities and minimization of conflicts between shoppers and motor vehicles. A further merging of this District with adjacent, related Districts is anticipated, partially through development of buildings which combine retailing with other functions.
The primary use of the Downtown - Retail zone is commercial. The Permitted uses listed below show that additional land uses may be allowed in this zone.
Permitted Residential Uses: Intermediate length occupancy use, single room occupancy, dwelling units, student housing, homeless shelter.
Permitted Non-Residential Uses: Formula retail, open air sales, outdoor activity area, walk-up facility, agricultural uses, hotel, automotive sale/rental, entertainment, outdoor, open recreation area, and others.
The height of a dwelling cannot exceed 130 feet. However, the height limit may be decreased or increased based on the slope of the lot.
Tower Base: The base is the lowest part of the building, extending vertically to a street wall height of up to 1.25 times the width of the widest abutting street or 50 feet, whichever is greater. There are no limitations on the length or diagonal dimensions of the base.
Lower Tower: For buildings under 160 feet in height, the bulk controls for the lower tower are the only applicable controls above the building base. These controls include a maximum length of 160 feet, a maximum floor size of 20,000 square feet, and a maximum diagonal dimension of 190 feet.
Building height is measured from the centerline of the building. If the building steps laterally along a street, separate measurements are taken from the centerline of each step. For flat roofs, height is measured to the highest point of the finished roof, while for pitched or stepped roofs, it is measured to the average height of the rise.
Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs), also called secondary units, in-law units, or cottages, are units added to existing and new residential buildings. Adding an ADU to your property can provide several benefits, such as providing housing for family members, simplifying your lifestyle, and increased financial flexibility.Learn more about building ADUs
