Sec. 38-692. Legal Requirements

(1) Introduction

The following zones and standards were developed to promote urban development form that aligns with the vision and policies set forth by the Downtown, ML King, Southside and North Shore plans.

These plans define a vision for growth that is urban, mixed-use, walkable, neighborhood-friendly and contributes to a high quality public realm.

B. Chattanooga's current zoning districts provide very limited options for urban development.

This Downtown Code provides a set of zones and standards that are intended to be applied in several defined "Context Areas" (Sec. 38-693.)

where planning policy has defined a clear direction for urban development.

(2) Title

This document is the "The Downtown Chattanooga Form-Based Code for the City of Chattanooga, Tennessee," and is referred to or cited throughout the document as the "Downtown Code."

(3) Effective Date

This Downtown Code was adopted on June 21, 2016 and became effective on July 5, 2016.

B. Following the effective date, there will be a 6-month grace period, during which time property owners will have the option to develop under either their former zoning or this Downtown Code.

At the end of this 6-month grace period, the Director of the Land Development Office will provide a report to the Chattanooga-Hamilton County Regional Planning Commission and the Chattanooga City Council on all cases taken during that time.

(4) Purpose

This Downtown Code provides the means to guide implementation of the citizen-endorsed vision for property within the following five Downtown neighborhoods:

1. North Shore;

2. Riverfront (South Shore);

4. ML King;

3. City Center;

5. Southside;

6. The Bend;

7. Westside; and

8. Chestnut Street.

B. This Downtown Code helps to foster predictable results and a high-quality public realm by prescribing the physical form of buildings and other elements and addressing the relationship between building facades and the public realm, the form and mass of buildings in relation to one another and the scale and types of streets and blocks.

(5) Intent

This Downtown Code is intended to balance conservation and development by:

1. Promoting development that maintains Downtown's position as the region's predominant economic, civic, and cultural center.

2. Promoting development along transit corridors that enhances their function as mixed-use, walkable centers that serve surrounding residential neighborhoods.

3. Providing standards for compatible transitions of use, building scale and height between existing and new development.

4. Guiding reinvestment in established neighborhoods that builds upon and reinforces their unique characteristics.

5. Promoting preservation and protection of historic resources.

6. Providing clear and consistent procedures for appropriate and effective public involvement in land use and development decisions.

B. This Downtown Code is intended to achieve design excellence in the built environment by:

1. Providing building and site design standards that address the public aspects of private development and how building form, placement, and uses contribute to the quality of the public realm.

2. Providing parking and access standards that appropriately balance pedestrian and vehicular needs and result in safe pedestrian environments of the highest quality.

3. Promoting high quality innovative landscape design that advances the function and beauty of Downtown.

C. This Downtown Code is intended to guide Downtown's prosperous and sustainable future by:

1. Providing clear regulations and processes that result in predictable, efficient, and coordinated review processes.

2. Promoting sustainable building and site design practices.

3. Promoting diverse housing options.

4. Providing standards for interconnected streets and development patterns that support all modes of travel (walking, bicycling, public transit, driving).

(6) Applicability

5. Promoting conservation of land, energy, and natural resources.

A. The Downtown Code applies to all property within the Downtown Code Context Areas as shown in the City of Chattanooga Official Zoning Map (also known as the Digital Zoning Map or Zoning Map).

B. All standards and references to streets in the Downtown Code apply to both public and private streets.

Private streets must not be obstructed and must maintain vehicular and pedestrian connectivity.

Sec. 38-693. Context Areas

The Downtown Code is organized by Contexts (Sec. 38-693.

(1)) derived from existing and future neighborhood characteristics.

Contexts are distinguished from one another by their overall physical and functional form, including but not limited to: street and block patterns; building placement and height; diversity, distribution, and intensity of land uses; and diversity of mobility options.

This approach provides a range of zoning options that set standards for new development that change based on the established context of a particular neighborhood.

Downtown (D) Greatest intensity and height (up to 12 stories), widest variety of uses.

River (R) Medium- to high-intensity residential and tourist development (up to 6 stories), oriented toward and preserving river views.

Urban (U) Medium-intensity residential and commercial areas (up to 8 stories).

Urban Edge (E) Low- to medium-intensity residential and commercial areas (up to 4 stories).

The Bend (B) Medium to high intensity residential and mixed-use development (up to 12 stories, with a limited 20-story area).

Westside (W) Medium to high intensity residential mixed with neighborhood commercial and public uses (up to 7 stories), pedestrian-friendly and respectful of the neighborhood's history.

Chestnut Street (C) A variety of residential, retail, service, and commercial building forms (up to 12 stories) in a pedestrian-friendly environment.

Form Based Code Context Areas – Chattanooga, TN Urban Edge: northernmost area, wraps around the top of the peninsula near Woodland Heights, spans both sides of the Tennessee River bend River: central area covering the Tennessee River channel and Maclellan Island, sits between Urban Edge and Downtown Core Downtown Core: south of River, the dense central business district along the riverfront The Bend: small area west of Downtown Core, along a bend in the river near Moccasin Bend Road Westside: just east of The Bend, adjacent to Downtown Core's western edge Urban: largest area, covers the broad zone southeast of Downtown Core, extending toward University of Tennessee-Chattanooga, Erlanger Baroness Hospital, and Chattanooga National Cemetery Chestnut Street: separate southern area, along the river south of The Bend, near W 26th St General layout: areas run roughly north to south along the Tennessee River, with River/Downtown Core as the central spine, Urban Edge to the north, The Bend/Westside/Chestnut Street along the western riverbank, and Urban as the large eastern/southeastern expanse.

The following Downtown Contexts are established below:

(4) Code Modifications

Purpose

1. The standards established in this Downtown Code are intended to achieve the following principles:

a. Maintain a safe, walkable and attractive urban environment along the street;

c. Provide a diversity of housing options;

b. Maximize opportunities for redevelopment and investment in the Downtown Core;

d. Promote development that will support transit and commercial services the community desires;

e. Protect established single-family residential areas from incompatible development;

f. Protect integrity of established Historic Districts and significant historic/civic landmarks;

g. Balance development opportunity and conservation along the riverfront by promoting development scale/form that maintains public accessibility to the river and considers public/private benefits of scenic views along the river;

h. Consider impacts of topography, both in terms of reasonableness of the standard when applied to a particular site and the potential impacts on adjoining properties;

i. Increase the tree canopy; and

j. Support adopted plan policies and recommendations.

2. However, specific site features (topographic changes, lot size or irregular dimension, physical barriers or easements) may create conditions that make compliance with a specific standard impractical or undesirable.

It is also recognized that alternative design solutions may achieve the principles stated above but may not comply with a specific standard.

This section establishes the procedures for considering requests for a modification to the standards.

These are divided into minor staff approved modifications (see Sec. 38-696.(4)B.)

and major modifications approved by the Form-Based Code Committee (see Sec. 38-696(4)C.).

3. It is the responsibility of the applicant to meet the burden of clearly demonstrating the reason for the requested code exception and to provide sufficient documentation to illustrate how the modification is related to a site constraint and/or how the modification would equal or exceed the existing standard in terms of achieving the principles stated above.

B. Minor Code Modifications During the Technical Plan Review process, the Director of the Land Development Office is authorized to approve minor code modifications at the request of an applicant, provided the portion of property for the requested modification does not fall within 30 feet of any protected zone.

Any code modification request that falls within 30 feet of any protected zone, must be considered by the Form-Based Code Committee following public notification.

The Director of the Land Development Office is only authorized to take action on the merits of a specific requested code modification and is not authorized to require the applicant to offset the code modifications with additional development enhancements.

1. Lot Area See Sec. 38-502(1) and 38-502(5) for exceptions to minimum lot area requirements.

6. Parking Setbacks

a. Decrease of up to 5 feet of a required primary or side street parking setback.

b. Decrease of up to 2 feet of a required common lot line or alley setback.

Setbacks abutting a protected zone cannot be reduced by the Director of the Land Development Office.

(4) Code Modifications

7. Building Mass Increase of up to 10 feet of the maximum length of a street-facing building facade.

8. Fenestration

a. Decrease of up to 5% of the minimum percentage of windows and doors that must cover a street-facing building facade.

9. Story Height

a. Decrease of up to 1 foot of a required minimum ground floor elevation or up to 18 inches for accessibility needs.

b. Increase of up to 2 feet of a required maximum ground floor elevation.

c. Increase of up to 5 feet of a required maximum ground floor elevation if there is a slope of 10% or greater (as measured parallel to the street).

d. Decrease of up to 1 foot of a required minimum ground story floor height.

10. Pedestrian Access Increase of up to 10 feet of the maximum required distance between street-facing entrances.

11. Sidewalk and Street Tree/Furniture Zone

a. Decrease the minimum Pedestrian or Street Tree zone depth in cases where insufficient right-of-way exists as measured from the street curb to the right-of-way line.

b. Decrease or increase tree spacing where the existing tree pattern is different, or to accommodate utilities or underground vaults.

12. Landscape

a. A reduction of up to 50% in the width of a buffer abutting a public easement or right-of-way may be granted, provided that all of the originally required landscape material is included in the reduced-width buffer.

b. Where conflicts arise, perimeter plantings or other required landscape abutting a street edge may be substituted for streetscape planting within the public right-of-way.

c. Alter the spacing of the required Interior Islands to accommodate existing healthy, high quality trees, vegetated green infrastructure, or to maintain the number of required parking spaces.

The total number of required trees must still be provided and the tree spacing must still provide shade cover for the entire parking lot.

C. Major Modifications

1. The Form-Based Code Committee is responsible for reviewing major modification requests that do not qualify for staff approval, and to review appeals of staff decisions/interpretations.

2. Any applicant or citizen aggrieved with the decision of the staff may appeal to the Form-Based Code Committee for further consideration within 30 days of the staff's decision.

A signed, written request must be received by the Director of the Land Development Office from the aggrieved party.

3. When reviewing requests for modifications, the Form-Based Code Committee must consider the principles stated in Sec. 38-696.

(4)A.

4. The Form-Based Code Committee's decision to approve or deny a request for a modification is based on the following considerations:

a. The physical conditions of the property, such as steep slopes, flood plain, drainage, or small or irregular lot shape, make compliance to the specific standard physically impossible, and this hardship is not created by the applicant; or b. The applicant meets the burden of presenting an alternative means of compliance that clearly demonstrates how the code exception would equal or exceed the existing standard in terms of achieving the stated principles above; and

c. The modification will not significantly impact adjacent property owners, the character of the area, traffic conditions, parking, public infrastructure, water quality management, and other matters affecting the public health, safety and general welfare; and

d. The modification will not result in a substantial departure from the basic urban principle that buildings should directly front streets (as opposed to being set back from the right-of-way) and add value to the animation and pedestrian walkability of the street edge.

e. For any request to increase maximum building height, may grant up to one additional story of 12 feet or less, in height.

The Committee may require the additional story to be stepped back a minimum of 10 feet from all building faces fronting a street.Requests for more than one additional story require rezoning.

(5) Form-Based Code Committee

Membership

Retail is concentrated along key roadways.

Vertical mixed use with upper-story multi-family or office is encouraged.

In the Downtown Core Context priority is given to pedestrians and bicyclists.

(2) Built Environment

Residential zones can be up to 4 stories in height and are typically built to the edge of the sidewalk.

Mixed use and commercial zones can be as high as 12 stories, with parking to the rear of buildings.

Building coverage is high.

(3) Streets and Blocks

Streets and rights-of-way are typically wide in order to accommodate the traffic associated with higher intensities.

A rectilinear grid of streets frames a regular pattern of mid-sized, walkable blocks.

Alleys are not often present.

Block shapes and sizes are relatively consistent.

The typical block pattern includes detached and attached sidewalks, street trees, on-street and surface parking, and open space and landscaping.

Residential and commercial access is typically via secondary streets and shared service drives to a surface parking lot or structured parking.

(4) Parking and Mobility

Parking is primarily provided on-street, in surface lots, and in structures.

Sec. 38-707. River Context

(1) General Character

The River Context consists of medium- to high-intensity residential and tourist areas.

Multi-family housing is predominant.

Commercial activity is limited to mixed use in multi-family residential buildings and hotels.

Priority is given to pedestrians and bicyclists.

(2) Built Environment

Zones can be up to 6 stories in height and typically have larger front setbacks than the Downtown Core Context.

Riverfront sites have deep riverfront setbacks, and entrances on both adjacent streets and towards the river.

Limited mixed use in buildings is allowed to service the tourist and residential community and hotels are allowed.

Parking is located to the rear of buildings.

Building coverage is moderate to allow for open spaces and views to the river.

(3) Streets and Blocks

Streets and rights-of-way are narrower in width than the Downtown Core Context.

Streets that parallel the river frame development sites.

Block shapes and sizes are often irregular due to the topography of many sites.

The typical block pattern includes detached sidewalks, street trees, on-street parking and landscaping.

Access is typically via a shared service drive to a surface parking lot or structured parking.

(4) Parking and Mobility Options

Parking is primarily provided on-street, in surface lots and in structures.

Parking is located to the rear of buildings.

In street design, priority is given to pedestrians and bicyclists.

There is access to multiple modes of transportation and frequent pedestrian activity.

Sec. 38-708. R-RF: Riverfront Zone

(1) SUMMARY

Intent The Riverfront (R-RF) zone is intended to accommodate a mix of multi-family and commercial activity in a manner that addresses and maintains the views to the river.

Sec. 38-712. Allowed Uses

(1) Classification of Uses

In order to regulate a variety of similar uses, use categories have been established for principal uses.

Use categories provide a systematic basis for assigning uses to appropriate categories with other, similar uses.

Use categories classify principal uses and activities based on common functional, product or physical characteristics.

B. Where a use category contains a list of included uses, the list is to be considered example uses, and not all-inclusive.

The Director of the Land Development Office has the responsibility for categorizing all uses (see Sec. 38-737.(3)).

C. A full list of uses and use categories are specified in Sec. 38-738.

(2) Allowed Use Table

Permitted Use (P) Indicates a use is permitted in the respective zone.

The use is also subject to all other applicable requirements of the Downtown Code.

B. Limited Use (L) Indicates a use is permitted in the respective zone, subject to a use standard found in the right-hand column of the use table.

The use is also subject to all other applicable requirements of the Downtown Code.

C. Special Exception from the BZA Required (SZ) Indicates a use may be permitted in the respective zone, subject to the approval of a Special Exceptions Permit issued by the Board of Zoning Appeals under the terms specified in Article VIII (§§ 38-561 - 38-573) of Chapter 38.

D. Special Exception from City Council Required (SC) Indicates a use may be permitted in the respective zone, subject to the approval of a Special Exceptions Permit issued by the City Council.

E. Use Not Permitted (--) Indicates that a use is not permitted in the respective zone.

Sec. 38-713. Urban Context

(1) General Character

The The Urban Context consists of medium-intensity residential and commercial areas.

Multi-family housing is predominant with opportunities for single-family detached and single-family attached.

Commercial activity is concentrated along major roadways and at neighborhood nodes and is encouraged to be vertical mixed use.

Equal emphasis is given to pedestrians, bicyclists and automobiles.

(2) Streets and Blocks

Streets and rights-of-way are generally narrower in width than in the Downtown Core Context.

A rectilinear grid of streets frames a regular pattern of mid-sized, walkable blocks.

Alleys are often present.

Block shapes and sizes are relatively consistent.

The typical block pattern includes detached and attached sidewalks, street trees, street and surface parking, and open space and landscaping.

Residential and commercial access is typically via an alley or shared service drive to a surface parking lot.

(3) Built Environment

Residential zones can be up to 3 stories in height and typically have larger front setbacks than the Downtown Core Context.

Mixed use and commercial zones can be as tall as 8 stories, with parking to the rear of buildings.

Building coverage is relatively high.

(4) Parking and Mobility

Parking is primarily provided on-street, in surface lots and in structures in more intense mixed use zones.

Surface parking is primarily located to the rear of buildings.

In street design, equal emphasis is given to pedestrians, bicyclists and automobiles.

There is access to multiple modes of transportation and frequent pedestrian activity.

Sec. 38-714. U-RD: Residential Detached Zone

(1) SUMMARY

Intent The Residential Detached (U-RD) zone is intended to accommodate single-family detached housing with an attached or detached accessory structure on an individual lot in a pedestrian-friendly environment.

Sec. 38-726. Urban Edge Context

(1) General Character

Residential zones can be up to 3 stories in height and typically have larger front setbacks than in the Urban Context.

Mixed use and commercial zones can be as high as 4 stories in places with parking to the side and rear of buildings.

Building coverage is moderate is generally lower than in the Urban Context.

(2) Built Environment

The Urban Edge Context consists of low- to medium-intensity residential and commercial areas.

Multifamily housing is predominant with opportunities for single-family detached and single-family attached.

Commercial activity is concentrated along major roadways and at neighborhood nodes and is encouraged to be mixed use (either vertical or horizontal).

Pedestrians and bicycles are accommodated, but many people continue to rely on automobiles for transportation.

(3) Streets and Blocks

Streets and rights-of-way are generally wider than in the Urban Context.

Curvilinear streets within a modified or non-existent grid frame irregular block shapes.

Alleys are atypical, but are encouraged in new development.

Block shapes and sizes vary significantly.

The typical block pattern includes attached sidewalks, street trees, street and surface parking and open space and landscaping.

Residential and commercial access is typically via a shared drive to a surface parking lot.

(4) Parking and Mobility

Parking is provided on-street and in surface lots.

Surface parking is primarily located to the side and rear of buildings.

In street design, priority may be given to automobiles, but adequate accommodations are provided for the pedestrian and bicyclist.

Sec. 38-727. E-RD: Residential Detached Zone
