Chapter 18. General Zoning Ordinance

Sec. 18-42. (CD) Campus Development Zoning District

(1) Intent. This district is intended to recognize the presence and importance of large-scale governmental, office, educational, medical, and research and development facilities in the City; to facilitate their development; and to coordinate their futures with those of their neighbors and the community as a whole. This district is also intended to:

(a) Permit appropriate campus growth, while minimizing adverse impacts associated with modifications, infill development, and/or expansion;

(b) Recognize the sharing of parking, green space, and other efficiencies that come with integrated campus planning and development;

(c) Balance the ability of a campus to evolve and the public benefits associated with such development, with the need to protect the livability and vitality of nearby properties and neighborhoods; and,

(d) Encourage the preparation of campus master plans that establish full conforming zoning status, facilitate predictable campus development, and enable nearby property owners, residents and the community to understand short-term development proposals, impacts and mitigation strategies within the context of long-term development possibilities.

(2) See Section 18-166 for the process to establish Campus Development Zoning.
