The purpose of the Central Point climate-friendly area (CFA) overlay is to promote climate-friendly development where residents, workers, and visitors can meet most of their daily needs without having to drive. The CFA overlay permits a variety of housing, jobs, businesses, and services in an area supported by high-quality pedestrian, bicycle, and transit infrastructure, as required by the Oregon Transportation Planning Rules. (Ord. 2125 §5 (Exh. E), 2025).

These regulations apply to the Central Point CFA overlay as shown on the official city comprehensive plan and zoning maps. A development application within the CFA overlay shall comply with the requirements of this chapter. (Ord. 2125 §5 (Exh. E), 2025).

The provisions of this chapter apply in addition to other applicable TOD overlay zoning district standards and other requirements of this title. When there is a conflict between the provisions of this chapter and other requirements of this title including the TOD overlay standards, the provisions of this chapter shall govern. (Ord. 2125 §5 (Exh. E), 2025).

1. Pedestrian Service Areas.

a. Drive-through facilities must provide at least one walk-up service area. Examples of a walk-up service area include an indoor service area directly accessible from a public street or an outdoor walk-up service window. Walk-up service areas must be accessible by customers arriving on foot, using a mobility device, or by bicycle. Customers using a walk-up service area must have the same or better access to goods and services as customers using the drive-through. Vehicle-serving uses are exempt from this standard.

ii. The walk-up service area must abut or be connected to a pedestrian amenity space. The space must be hardscaped for pedestrian use, be a minimum of one hundred square feet, and must include benches or seating that provide at least five linear feet of seats. The seating surface must be at least fifteen inches deep and between sixteen and twenty-four inches above the grade upon which the seating or bench sits.

A stacking lane is measured between the lane entrance and the service area.

d. The design provides for adequate vehicle queuing space. (Ord. 2125 §5 (Exh. E), 2025).
