City Zoning Code

PART 4

- ZONING DISTRICTS: DISTRICT ESTABLISHMENT, DIMENSIONAL, AND USE REGULATIONS

DIVISION 21.04.0200 - RESIDENTIAL ZONING DISTRICTS

This division sets forth detailed descriptions of the residential zoning districts and their respective dimensional and bulk regulations, requirements, and design standards. The various "Open Space Subdivision" options indicated within some residential zoning districts are "open space ratio," or OSR, driven. While the overall maximum gross density stays essentially the same within each residential zoning district for each option within a specific residential zoning district, as the minimum OSR increases the maximum permitted net density increases. Under the "Conventional Subdivision" and other options presented for each residential zoning district, the site intensity and capacity calculations, as well as the natural resource protection standards and guidelines set forth in Divisions 21.04.0500 and 21.05.0100 of this Code, shall be followed. All residential districts are intended to be served by public sanitary sewer and water supply facilities. The residential zoning districts are generally organized into a residential density hierarchy.


DIVISION 21.04.0300 - NONRESIDENTIAL ZONING DISTRICTS

This division sets forth detailed descriptions of the nonresidential zoning districts and their respective dimensional and bulk regulations, requirements, and design standards. The nonresidential zoning districts are generally grouped as follows: business districts, industrial districts, public and semi-public districts, special districts, and floodland and shoreland-wetland districts. The C-1, C-2, C-3, C-4, C-5, O, BP, M-1, I, PR, and PUD nonresidential districts are intended to be served by public sanitary sewer and water supply facilities.

21.04.0102 - Zoning district maps. (Am. #2921)

A.

Zoning Map established. The location and boundaries of the districts established by this Code are set forth in the Official Zoning Map of the City of Greenfield, Wisconsin, dated January 15, 2019 and as amended, which is incorporated herein and hereby made a part of this Code. The official Zoning Map, with everything show thereon, and all amendments thereto, shall be as much a part of this Code as though fully set forth and described herein. A "Supplementary Floodland Zoning Map" is established by Chapter 23 "Floodplain Zoning" of the Municipal Code of the City of Greenfield.

B.

Zoning Map availability. Certified copies of the Zoning Map and the Supplementary Floodland Zoning Map shall be adopted and approved as a part of this Code and shall be available to the public in the office of the Zoning Administrator.

21.04.0103 - District boundaries.

When uncertainty exists with respect to boundaries of the various districts shown on the zoning maps, the following rules shall apply:

A.

General location of zoning district boundaries.

1.

Zoning boundary determination. The zoning district boundaries are corporate limits; U.S. Public Land Survey lines; lot or property lines; centerlines of street, highways (not including freeways), alleys, easements, and railroad rights-of-way or such lines extended; floodland boundaries; and wetland boundaries unless otherwise shown. Distances not specifically shown on the Zoning Map shall be determined by the scale of the Zoning Map.

2.

Zoning boundary determination for approximate boundaries. Where the designation of the Official Zoning Map shows that various zoning districts are approximately bounded by a street, alley, railroad, lot line, floodland boundary, or wetland boundary such lot line or the centerline of such street, alley, or railroad right-of-way, the floodland boundaries, or wetland boundaries as delineated on large-scale topographic maps prepared by the City or as determined by using flood profiles and accompanying hydrologic and hydraulic engineering data, said approximate boundaries shall be construed to be the zoning district boundary line.

3.

Split zoning of newly created lots not allowed. The rezoning of any lot or parcel into more than one (1) zoning district shall not be allowed except for the AO (AO-1 and AO-2), HPO, FW, FF, GFP, and SW Districts.

B.

Zoning district boundary lines on unsubdivided property. In unsubdivided property, the location of the zoning district boundary lines shown on the Official Zoning Map shall be determined by:

1.

Use of the scale on such map; or

2.

In the case of floodland boundaries, shall be determined by using flood profiles and accompanying hydrologic and hydraulic engineering data; or

3.

Be in accordance with the dimensions shown on the map measured at right angles from the centerline of the street or highway, and the length of frontage shall be according to dimensions shown on the map from section, quarter-section, or division lines, or centerlines of streets, highways, or railroad rights-of-way unless otherwise shown.

C.

Boundaries of floodland zoning districts.

1.

The boundaries of the FW Regional Floodway District shall be determined by use of the scale contained on the Official Zoning Map and Supplementary Floodland Zoning Map thereto.

2.

The boundaries of the FF Regional Flood Fringe District and the GFP General Floodplain District shall be determined by the floodplain limits shown on the Official Zoning Map and Supplementary Floodland Zoning Map thereto.

3.

Where a conflict exists between the floodland limits as shown on the Official Zoning Map and actual field conditions, the elevations from the one hundred (100) year recurrence interval flood profile under floodway conditions shall be the governing factor in locating the regulatory floodland limits.

The flood stages, under floodway conditions, contained on the Official Zoning Map were developed from technical data contained in the Flood Insurance Study—City of Greenfield, Milwaukee County, Wisconsin, published by the Federal Insurance Administration (FIA) and dated December 1977. The information contained in the flood insurance study is further illustrated in FIA Floodway and Flood Boundary Maps and Flood Insurance Rate Maps, dated June 1, 1978.

D.

Boundaries of the SW Shoreland Wetland Overlay District. Boundaries of the SW Shoreland Wetland Overlay District were determined from use of the Wisconsin Wetland Inventory Map for the City of Greenfield, dated March 15, 1989, and stamped "FINAL." Section 62.231 of the Wisconsin Statutes requires that all shoreland wetlands five (5) acres or greater in area be protected by the City. All wetlands in the City of Greenfield are further protected under the provisions of Division 21.05.0100 of this Code.

E.

Boundaries of the AO Airport Overlay District. The AO Airport Overlay District boundaries shall be established as set forth in Section 21.04.0312 of this Code.

21.04.0104 - Zoning of streets, alleys, public-ways, waterways, and railroad rights-of-way.

All streets, alleys, public-ways, waterways, and railroad rights-of-way, if not otherwise specifically designated, shall be deemed to be in the same zoning district as the property immediately abutting upon such alleys, streets, public-ways, waterways, and railroad rights-of-way. Where the centerline of a street, alley, public-way, waterway, or railroad right-of-way serves as a district boundary, the zoning of such areas, unless otherwise specifically designated, shall be deemed to be the same as that of the abutting property up to such centerline.

21.04.0105 - Zoning of annexed land.

A.

General. Any additions to the incorporated area of the City of Greenfield, resulting from disconnections from incorporated areas in Milwaukee County or Waukesha County or otherwise, shall be automatically classified in the R-1 Single-Family Residential District until otherwise classified by amendment.

B.

Annexations or consolidations containing shorelands. Annexations containing shorelands shall comply with Section 62.231 of the Wisconsin Statutes.

C.

Annexations or consolidations containing floodlands. Annexations or consolidations containing floodlands shall be placed in the following districts as applicable:

1.

All floodways and unnumbered A Zones shall be placed in the FW Floodway District.

2.

All other floodlands shall be placed in the GFP General Floodplain District.

21.04.0501 - Site intensity and capacity calculations for residential and nonresidential uses required.

A.

Recognition of natural resource features. This Code recognizes that landforms, parcel size and shape, and natural resource features vary from site to site and that development regulations must take into account these variations. The maximum density or intensity of use allowed in any zoning district is controlled by the various district standards set forth for each of the various zoning districts of this Code.

B.

When site intensity and capacity calculations are required. The site intensity and capacity calculations set forth in this division shall be made for each parcel of land to be used or built upon in the City of Greenfield including all new condominiums, all new residential developments including all Certified Survey Maps, condominiums, and subdivisions, multiple-family residential development, and all nonresidential development; and as may be required elsewhere in this Code.

C.

Exclusions (when site intensity and capacity calculations are not required). The site intensity and capacity calculations set forth in this division shall not be required for the construction of single-family and two-family residential development located within existing platted subdivisions (with an approved final plat), certified survey maps, and condominiums existing at the time of the adoption of this Code.

21.04.0502 - Calculation of base site area.

The base site area shall be calculated as indicated in Table 21.04.0502 for each parcel of land to be used or built upon in the City of Greenfield as referenced in Section 21.04.0501 of this Code.

21.04.0503 - Calculation of the area of natural resources to be protected.

All land area with those natural resource features as described in Division 21.05.0100 of this Code and as listed in Table 21.04.0503 and lying within the base site area (as defined in Section 21.04.0502), shall be measured for each natural resource feature present. The actual land area encompassed by each type of resource is then entered into the column of Table 21.04.0503 titled "Acres of Land in Resource Feature." The acreage of each natural resource feature shall be multiplied by its respective natural resource protection standard (to be selected from Table 21.05.0100 of this Code for applicable agricultural, residential, or nonresidential zoning district) to determine the amount of resource protection land or area required to be kept in open space to protect the resource or feature. The sum of all resource protection land on the site equals the total resource protection land. The total resource protection land shall be calculated as indicated in Table 21.04.0503.

Table 21.04.0502
WORKSHEET FOR THE CALCULATION OF BASE SITE AREA
FOR BOTH RESIDENTIAL AND NONRESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT

STEP 1: Indicate the total gross site area (in acres) as determined by an actual on-site boundary survey of the property. _____ acres
STEP 2: Subtract ( - ) land which constitutes any existing dedicated public street rights-of-way, land located within the ultimate road rights-of-way of existing roads, and the rights-of-way of major utilities. - _____ acres
STEP 3: Subtract ( - ) land required to be dedicated for public parks under the requirements of the City of Greenfield Subdivision Ordinance as amended. [Note: If there is a fee in lieu of land dedication, this deduction is not applicable.] - _____ acres
STEP 4: Subtract ( - ) land which, as a part of a previously approved development or land division, was reserved for open space. - _____ acres
STEP 5: In the case of "Site Intensity and Capacity Calculations" for a proposed residential use, subtract ( - ) the land proposed for nonresidential uses; or In the case of "Site Intensity and Capacity Calculations" for a proposed nonresidential use, subtract ( - ) the land proposed for residential uses. - _____ acres
STEP 6: Equals "Base Site Area" = _____ acres

Permitted uses. All permitted uses in the underlying zoning district(s) shall be permitted by right, except as qualified by Section 21.04.0606(C).

B.

Special uses. All special uses which may be allowed in the underlying zoning district(s) may be permitted as special uses, except as qualified by Section 21.04.0606(C).

C.

Use limitations and noise level reduction (NLR) standards in the AO-1 Airport Overlay District.

Uses within the AO-1 District shall be permitted only according to the following guidelines:

1.

Residential uses. For all residential uses measures to achieve a noise level reduction (outdoor to indoor) of 25 dB must be incorporated into the design and construction of the residential structure(s). Mobile home parks or courts shall not be permitted.

[Commentary: Normal construction can be expected to provide a noise level reduction of 20 dB; thus, the reduction requirements are about 5 dB over standard construction and normally assume mechanical ventilation and closed windows year round. Noise level reduction criteria will not eliminate outdoor noise problems.]

2.

Nonresidential uses. For land uses in the SIC categories of 805, 806, and 82 (nursing and personal care facilities, hospitals, and educational facilities), cultural facilities including churches, auditoriums, and theaters, measures to achieve a noise level reduction (outdoor to indoor) of 25 dB must be incorporated into the design and/or construction of the structure(s). Outdoor music shells or amphitheaters shall not be permitted.

D.

Use limitations and noise level reduction (NLR) standards in the AO-2 Airport Overlay District. In addition to the use limitations presented for the underlying zoning district(s) in which the AO-2 Airport Overlay District is located, the use limitations set forth in this section shall also apply to the specific AO-2 Airport Noise Impact Area. Uses within the AO-2 District shall be permitted only according to the following guidelines:

1.

Residential uses. For all residential uses measures to achieve a noise level reduction (outdoor to indoor) of 30 dB must be incorporated into the design and construction of the residential structure(s). Mobile home parks or courts shall not be permitted.

[Commentary: Normal construction can be expected to provide a noise level reduction of 20 dB; thus, the reduction requirements are about 10 dB over standard construction and normally assume mechanical ventilation and closed windows year round. Noise level reduction criteria will not eliminate outdoor noise problems.]

2.

Nonresidential uses. Measures to achieve a noise level reduction (outdoor to indoor) of 25 dB must be incorporated into the design and construction of the structure(s) for uses in the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) manufacturing categories of 20, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 127, 28, 29, 30, 32, 33, 34, 38, and 39; SIC transportation, communication, and utilities categories of 40, 41, 42, 44, 45, 48, and 49; the SIC trade categories of 50 and 51; the SIC retail categories of 52, 53, 54, 56, 57, 58, and 59; and the SIC services categories of 72, 73, and 76.

3.

Nonresidential uses in the SIC categories of 805, 806, and 82. For land uses in the SIC categories of 805, 806, and 82 (nursing and personal care facilities, hospitals, and educational facilities), cultural facilities including churches, auditoriums, and theaters, measures to achieve a noise level reduction (outdoor to indoor) of 30 dB must be incorporated into the design and construction of the structure(s). Outdoor music shells or amphitheaters shall not be permitted.

21.04.0607 - Permitted and special uses in the HPO Historic Preservation Overlay zoning district.

This section sets forth those uses which are permitted uses and special uses in the HPO Historic Preservation Overlay District.

A.

Permitted uses. All permitted uses in the underlying zoning district(s) shall be permitted by right.

B.

Special uses. All special uses which may be allowed in the underlying zoning district(s) may be permitted as special uses.

21.04.0701 - General standards for special uses.

A.

General standards. No special use permit shall be recommended or granted pursuant to this Code unless the applicant shall establish the following:

1.

Zoning code and comprehensive master plan purposes and intent. The proposed use and development will be in harmony with the general and specific purposes for which this Code was enacted and for which the regulations of the zoning district in question were established and with the general purpose and intent of the City of Greenfield Comprehensive Master Plan or element thereof.

2.

Adverse impact. The proposed use and development will not have a substantial or undue adverse or detrimental effect upon or endanger adjacent property, the character of the area, or the public health, safety, morals, comfort, and general welfare and not substantially diminish and impair property values within the community or neighborhood and:

a.

Interference with surrounding development. The proposed use and development will be constructed, arranged, and operated so as not to unreasonably interfere with the use and development of neighboring property according to the applicable zoning district regulations.

b.

Adequate public facilities. The proposed use and development will be served adequately by essential public facilities and services such as streets, public utilities including public water supply system and sanitary sewer, police and fire protection, refuse disposal, public parks, libraries, schools, and other public facilities and utilities or the applicant will provide adequately for such facilities.

c.

Traffic congestion. The proposed use and development will not cause undue traffic congestion nor draw significant amounts of traffic through residential streets. Adequate measures will be taken to provide ingress and egress so designed as to minimize traffic congestion in the public streets.

d.

Destruction of significant features. The proposed use and development will not result in the destruction, loss, or damage of any natural, scenic, or historic feature of significant importance.

3.

Compliance with standards. The special use shall, in all other respects, conform to the applicable regulations of the district in which it is located, except as such regulations may, in each instance, be modified by the Common Council pursuant to the recommendations of the Plan Commission. The proposed use and development shall comply with all additional standards imposed on it by the particular provision of this division and Code authorizing such use. (Also see Sections 21.04.1001 and 21.04.1004 of this Code.)

B.

Special standards for specified special uses. When the zoning district regulations authorize a special use in a particular zoning district and that special use is indicated as having special standards as set forth in either Section 21.04.0702 or 21.04.0703 of this division, a Special Use Permit for such use in such zoning district shall not be recommended or granted unless the applicant shall establish compliance with all such special standards.

C.

Considerations. In determining whether the applicant's evidence establishes that the foregoing standards have been met, the Plan Commission and the Common Council shall consider the following:

1.

Alternative locations. Whether and to what extent such public goals can be met by the location of the proposed use and development at another site or in another area that may be more appropriate than the proposed site.

2.

Mitigation of adverse impacts. Whether and to what extent all steps possible have been taken to minimize any adverse effects of the proposed use and development on the immediate vicinity through building design, site design, landscaping, and screening.

D.

Conditions on special use permits. (Am. #2430) The Plan Commission may recommend, and the Common Council may impose, such conditions and limitations concerning use, construction, character, location, landscaping, maintenance, screening, operation, hours of operation (except as may be allowed by other Federal, State, or County requirements), need for a developers agreement, and other matters relating to the purposes and objectives of this Code upon the premises benefited by the issuance of a Special Use Permit as may be necessary or appropriate to prevent or minimize adverse effects upon other property and improvements near the subject property, upon such public facilities and services, protection of the public interest, and to secure compliance with the standards and requirements specified in this Code. Such conditions shall be expressly set forth in the resolution granting the Special Use Permit, and the Common Council may require the unconditional consent of the applicant to such conditions. Violation of any such condition of limitation shall be a violation of this Code and shall constitute grounds for revocation of the Special Use Permit.

E.

Costs. The costs of all professional, expert, technical consultant services retained by the City and rendered in review of a Special Use Permit, administration of a Special Use Permit, checking and/or inspections relating to a Special Use Permit including, but not limited to, consulting professional engineers, consulting planners, City Attorney, or other professional, expert, or technical services shall be borne by the applicant for a Special Use Permit and shall be considered as a part of the application fees for a Special Use Permit.

F.

Affidavit of compliance with conditions. In all cases in which special uses are granted, the Common Council shall require such evidence and guarantees as it may deem necessary as proof that the conditions stipulated in connection therewith are being, and will be, complied with. Whenever any Special Use Permit granted pursuant to this Code is made subject to conditions or limitations to be met by the applicant, the applicant shall, upon meeting such conditions, file an affidavit with the Zoning Administrator so stating.

G.

Effect of issuance of a special use permit. The grant of a Special Use Permit shall not authorize the establishment or extension of any such use nor the development, construction, reconstruction, alteration, or moving of any building or structure, but shall merely authorize the preparation, filing, and processing of applications for any other permits or approvals that may be required by the ordinances and codes of the City of Greenfield, including but not limited to Building Permit, Zoning Permit, Occupancy Permit, Certificate of Appropriateness, land division approval, site plan approval, or other type of permit or approval.

H.

Limitations on special use permits.

1.

Time limitations. Subject to an extension of time granted by the Common Council, upon recommendation of the Plan Commission, no Special Use Permit shall be valid for a period longer than twelve (12) months unless a Building Permit and/or Occupancy Permit is issued and construction is actually begun within that period and is thereafter diligently pursued to completion or unless a Zoning Permit is issued and a use commenced within that period.

2.

Use discontinuance. A Special Use Permit shall be deemed to authorize only the particular use for which it was issued. Such permits shall automatically expire and cease to be of any force or effect if such use shall be discontinued for twelve (12) consecutive months or more; provided, however, that if such use is discontinued due to labor strikes, war, natural disasters, or other similar cause(s) beyond the reasonable control of the holder of the Special Use Permit, such twelve (12) month period shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period that the holder of the Special Use Permit is prevented from engaging in the particular use for which the Special Use Permit was issued.

3.

Special use permit runs with land and not the applicant. Unless otherwise provided in the resolution granting a Special Use Permit, a Special Use Permit shall be deemed to relate to, and to be for the benefit of, the use and lot in question rather than the applicant, owner, or operator of such use or lot.

4.

Additions and enlargements to special uses.

a.

Any additions or enlargements of an existing legal special use for which a Special Use Permit has been issued may be amended, varied, or altered only pursuant to the procedures and subject to the standards and limitations provided in this Code for its original approval.

b.

Any additions or enlargements of an existing special use for which a Special Use Permit has not been issued shall be subject to the provisions of Division 21.04.1000 of this Code.

I.

Amendments to special use permits. A Special Use Permit may be amended, varied, or altered only pursuant to the procedures and subject to the standards and limitations provided in this Code for its original approval.

J.

Review of special use permits. An existing Special Use Permit may be reviewed by the City as follows.

1.

The Plan Commission may review a Special Use Permit if any of the following determinations are made by the Plan Commission:

a.

The special use has not continued in conformity with the City's conditions of approval of the Special Use Permit or with any subsequent amendments to the Special Use Permit.

b.

Violations of other statutes, ordinances, or laws.

c.

A change in the character of the surrounding area or in the special use itself which has caused the special use to become incompatible with the surrounding uses.

d.

A change in ownership or tenant; a change in the use or occupancy of property. This can involve the review of existing site/building conditions with a determination by the Plan Commission of where nonconforming elements are brought into compliance. (Cr. #2430; Am. #2490)

2.

The determination for the review of a Special Use Permit shall be made by the Plan Commission after due notice to the property owner, occupant, or agent as indicated on the Special Use Permit, as to the reasons for the review.

3.

Upon review of the Special Use Permit, the Plan Commission may recommend to the Common Council that no action be taken, recommend revisions to the Special Use Permit or additional conditions be added to the Special Use Permit or may recommend that the Common Council proceed with a public hearing for possible termination of the Special Use Permit.

K.

Subsequent change or addition to the plans or use. (Cr. #2731) Any subsequent change or addition to the plans or use shall first be submitted for approval to the Plan Commission. If in the opinion of the Plan Commission, it is anticipated that such requested change in the special use substantially changes the concept or intent of a previously approved special use, the Plan Commission can consider it a major change to the original Special Use. If this is the decision of the Plan Commission, then a public hearing before the Common Council shall be required and notice thereof be given pursuant to the provisions of this division, and said proposed changes shall be submitted to the Common Council for approval.

21.04.0702 - Detailed standards for special uses in residential districts.

A.

Open space subdivision. The following specific requirements and standards shall apply to all "Open Space Subdivision" options in the R-1 District:

1.

Open space subdivisions shall meet district standards. All "Open Space Subdivisions" shall meet the applicable open space ratio, density, lot dimension, living area per dwelling unit, and height requirements for both the zoning district and "Open Space Subdivision" option selected.

2.

Conservation and/or open space preservation easements. All "Open Space Subdivisions" shall have submitted conservation and/or open space preservation easements regulating the protection of natural resource features and/or open space in the proposed development. Such documents shall assure that all such conservation and/or open space preservation easements are held privately and in perpetuity under a Wisconsin nonprofit membership corporation (homeowners' association). Said conservation and/or open space preservation easements shall cover the total required Open Space Ratio (OSR) area of the Open Space Subdivision. In addition:

a.

Covenants and restrictions. All covenants, deed restrictions, easements, and similar restrictions to be recorded in connection with the "Open Space Subdivision" shall provide that they may not be modified, removed, or released without the express consent of the Common Council and that they may be enforced by future landowners within the proposed development.

Creation of excessive noise in areas adjacent to noise-sensitive areas prohibited. The creation of, or causing the creation of, any sound adjacent to any noise-sensitive area, containing a hospital, nursing home, school, court or other designated area, to exceed the specified land use noise standards set forth in this section and to interfere with the functions of such activity or annoy the occupants in the activity, is prohibited, if conspicuous signs are displayed indicating the presence of the noise-sensitive area.

G.

Occasional outdoor activities exempted. The provisions of this section shall not apply to occasional outdoor gatherings, public dances, shows, and sporting and entertainment events (excluding regularly scheduled school athletic events), provided the events are conducted pursuant to any permits issued by the City of Greenfield concerning the event.

H.

Introduction and purpose. (Cr. #2375) The purpose of these regulations is to guide the development of noise sensitive land uses (such as homes, schools and recreational areas) adjacent to highway corridors and to ensure that any such development that does occur is planned to mitigate the adverse effects of noise. The standards contained are based on the requirements for development of the best possible urban environment outlined by the American Society of Civil Engineers, American Public Health Association, National Recreational Association, American Association of State Highway Officials, Institute of Transportation Engineers, Federal Emergency Management Administration, American Society of Planning Officials Reports, Wisconsin Administrative Code, TRANS 405, and the Federal Highway Administration's Procedures for Abatement of Highway Traffic Noise and Construction Noise, Title 23, CFR, Chapter I, Subchapter H, Par.722. In general, residential subdivisions will be encouraged to provide generous distances between building sites and existing industries and between building sites and high capacity streets, highways, expressways, and freeways to act as buffers against noise and noxious fumes. Residential subdivisions will also be discouraged from locating too close to existing or proposed airport approach zones.

1.

Highway noise land use provisions.

a.

General Provisions.

The information and data supporting the claim that the appropriate requirements shall be met including specific enumerations that the Federal Highway Administration's Procedures for Abatement of Highway Traffic Noise and Construction Noise, Title 23, CFR Chapter I, Subchapter H, Part 772 provisions, and TRANS 405, shall be met and any other information which the City may require.

iv.

Certification by an engineering or other qualified testing firm that hourly traffic sound levels Leq(h) as hereinafter indicated, are within permissible levels or that appropriate sound attenuation measures are incorporated into the design and construction of any structures to satisfy the highway noise provisions within this ordinance.

4)

In addition to the requirements contained in subparagraph 3) above, the application shall also contain the following information as well as any other information bearing on the approval:

i.

The existing maximum hourly traffic sound level, Leq(h), for a representative sample of locations, measured in accordance with guidelines presented in "Sound Procedures for Measuring Highway Noise: Final Report," August 1981, U.S. Department of Transportation, Federal Highway Administration, Arlington, VA, or modeled according to a methodology in the FHWA Highway Traffic Noise Prediction Model (Report No. FHWA-RD-77-108);

ii.

The projected future Leg(h) at the site resulting from future traffic increases; and

iii.

Where applicable, plans for sound attenuation measures on the site and/or of the structure proposed to be built and the amount of sound attenuation anticipated as a result of these measures.

b.

Construction restrictions for habitable and institutional structures.

1)

No new single-family residential structure shall be approved for construction if any exterior hourly traffic sound level Leq(h) anywhere within a proposed outdoor living area is projected to be equal to or in excess of 67 dBA upon completion of the structure or anytime thereafter.

2)

No new multiple-family residence, school, hospital, nursing home or similar structure, or substantial modification of such existing structure, shall be approved for construction if any exterior hourly traffic sound level, Leq(h), anywhere with a proposed outdoor living area on the site is projected to be equal to or in excess of 67 dBA upon completion of the structure or modification or anytime thereafter.

3)

Construction otherwise prohibited shall be allowed if there are no outdoor use areas on the site of the proposed structure projected to be exposed to an hourly traffic sound level, Leq(h), equal to or in excess of 67 dBA and provided that there is incorporated into the design and construction of the structure such sound attenuation measures as are necessary to reduce the maximum interior hourly traffic induced sound level, Leq(h), in a habitable room to 52 dBA upon completion of the structure or modification, or anytime thereafter.

4)

Prior to issuance of any building permit for any structure regulated pursuant to subparagraph 3) above, the owner of the structure shall submit to the City, plans and specifications identifying the sound attenuation measures to be incorporated into the design and construction to meet the interior Leq(h) criteria. The plans and specifications shall be prepared by an engineering or other qualified testing firm with certified, documented and referenced sound level testing experience.

3.

Definitions. For the purpose of these regulations certain words used therein are defined as follows:

A-weighted sound level. The sound pressure level in decibels as measured on a sound level meter using the A-weighting network. The level to read is designated dB(A) or dBA.

Decibel (dB). A unit for measuring the volume of a sound, equal to 20 times the logarithm to the base of 10 of the ratio of the pressure of the sound measured to the reference pressure, which is 20 micropascals (20 micronewtons per square meter).

Equivalent A-weighted sound level (Leq). The equivalent steady-state sound level, which in a stated period of time contains the same acoustic energy as the time-varying sound level during the same period. For purposes of measuring or predicting noise levels, a receptor is assumed to be at ear height, located 5 feet above ground surface. "Leq(h)" means the hourly value of Leq.

Existing noise level. The highest hourly noise level caused by existing conditions in a particular area.

Future noise level. The highest hourly traffic noise level based on estimated traffic volumes within a 20-year period after the completion of construction of the new highway facility.

Noise barrier. Any device which reduces the transmissions of highway traffic noise from a highway to an adjacent receptor, including but not limited to, earth berms, walls made from timber, metal, concrete, or any combination.

Noise levels. The sound level obtained through use of A-weighting characteristics. The unit of measure is the decibel (dB), commonly referred to as dBA when A-weighting is used.

Outdoor living area. Spaces that are associated with residential land uses typically used for passive recreational activities or other noise sensitive uses. Such spaces include patio areas, barbecue areas, residential play areas; outdoor patient recovery or resting area associated with hospitals, convalescent hospitals, or rest homes; outdoor school facilities routinely used for educational purposes which may be adversely impacted by noise. Outdoor areas usually not included in this definition are: front yard areas, driveways, greenbelts, maintenance areas, and storage areas associated with residential land uses; exterior areas at hospitals that are not used for patient activities; outdoor areas associated with places of worship and principally used for short-term social gatherings; and outdoor areas associated with school facilities that are not typically associated with educational uses prone to adverse noise impacts (for example, school play yard areas).

Sound. An oscillation in pressure, partial displacement, particle velocity or other physical parameter, in a medium with internal forces that cause compression and rarefaction of that medium. The description of sound may include any characteristic of such sound, including duration, intensity and frequency.

Sound level. The weighted sound pressure level obtained by the use of a sound level meter and frequency weighting network, such as A, B, or C as specified in American National Standards Institute specifications for sound level meters (ANSI S1, 4-197, or the latest approved revision thereof). If the frequency weighting employed is not indicated, the A-weighting shall apply.

Sound level meter. An instrument which includes a microphone, amplifier, RMS detector, integrator or time averager, output meter, and weighting networks used to measure sound pressure levels.
