SUB CHAPTER 12.23

COMMERCIAL ZONES

12.23.010 - Commercial Zones.

There are 5 commercial zones in the City:

C-N Commercial-Neighborhood;

C-G Commercial-General;

SCC-DT Station Community Commercial-Downtown;

SCC-SC Station Community Commercial-Station Commercial; and

SCC-MM Station Community Commercial-Multi-Modal.

(Ord. 6401 § 1, 2022)

12.23.020 - Locational Characteristics.

On the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map, commercial zones implement the Medium Density Residential, High Density Residential, Industrial, and Station Community Planning Area designations as follows:

C-N does not implement a specific Plan designation, but may be applied in the Medium Density, High Density Residential, or Industrial Plan designations.

C-G implements the Commercial Plan designation.

SCC-DT, SCC-SC, and SCC-MM (among other zones) implement certain locations in the SCPA Station Community Planning Area designation where these zones are designated on the Zoning Map.

(Ord. 6401 § 1, 2022)

12.23.030 - Organization within This Subchapter.

Common Elements. Each section in this Subchapter contains the following subsections:

Purpose;

Permitted, Conditional, Limited, and Not Permitted Housing Types (organized in tables);

Permitted, Conditional, Limited and Not Permitted Uses (organized in tables);

Accessory Uses Permitted;

Special Provisions Regarding Uses;

Development Standards (organized in tables, illustrated in figures);

Variances and Adjustments; and

Other Pertinent Regulations.

Purpose. Purpose statements for each zone subchapter are descriptive of the zone's characteristics and intent, and are drawn from the Comprehensive Plan and/or the Community Development Code. Purpose statements are informational and not intended to be regulations.

Allowed Housing Types. Residential uses (where allowed in commercial zones) occupy a variety of Housing Types. Permitted, Conditionally Permitted, Limited and Not Permitted Housing Types within each zone are summarized in tables based on the definitions of Housing Types listed in Section 12.01.500. Neither the residential Use categories nor the Housing Types distinguish between owner- or renter-occupation.

Uses. Permitted, Conditionally Permitted, Limited and Not Permitted Uses within each zone are summarized in tables based on the standardized Use categories contained in Subchapter 12.10.

Permitted Uses (P) are permitted by right, subject to all applicable provisions of this Code.

Conditionally Permitted Uses (C) may be allowed, subject to approval on an individual basis as conditional uses. The Conditional Use application process and approval criteria are described in Sections 12.70.050 and 12.80.020. Certain conditional uses may have additional standards as described in Subchapter 12.40.

Limited Uses (L) are permitted by right, but are subject to specified requirements, exceptions, or restrictions which may vary with the nature, size or location of the use.

Not Permitted Uses (N) are not permitted in the zone under any circumstance.

Accessory Uses. Accessory Uses are permitted in each zone in conjunction with the primary use on the site and subject to the same regulations as the primary use unless stated otherwise in the Code. Characteristics and standards for certain accessory uses are listed in Subchapter 12.40.

Special Provisions Regarding Uses. Where certain notations in the Clarifications column of the Uses tables require further explanation, they are noted in this section.

Development Standards.

Development standards in each commercial zone are summarized in tables. Development standards are typically numerical standards: minimum and maximum densities (if applicable); minimum and maximum lot dimensions; structural setbacks; maximum building height and lot coverage. All development must comply with the development standards unless a discretionary Variance or Adjustment is approved as described in subsection H below.

Maximum residential densities in each commercial zone that allows residential development are generally derived from the minimum lot size; minimum densities are approximately 80% of the maximum density. Density calculation formulas for minimum and maximum density are described in Section 12.50.120. Minimum and maximum residential densities apply to all residential Use categories.

With the exception of the SCC-DT zone, certain development standards are illustrated in a Figure immediately following the development standards table.

Variances and Adjustments. Applications to vary or adjust certain numeric standards in each zone may be requested and approved under Sections 12.80.152, 12.80.154, and 12.80.156. Certain numeric standards may also be subject to exceptions under specific circumstances, as described in the Standards section.

Other Pertinent Regulations. Additional standards such as parking, landscaping, vision clearance, and street improvements may also apply to development in commercial zones. These site design and development standards may also have exceptions as described in those sections.

(Ord. 6401 § 1, 2022)

12.23.100 - C-N Commercial—Neighborhood Zone.

The C-N zone includes the following sections:

12.23.110 Purpose

12.23.120 Housing Types

12.23.130 Uses

12.23.140 Accessory Uses and Structures Permitted by Right

12.23.150 Special Provisions Regarding Uses

12.23.160 Development Standards

12.23.180 Other Pertinent Regulations

(Ord. 6401 § 1, 2022)

12.23.110 - Purpose.

Provide Neighborhood-Scale Services. The C-N zone does not implement a single specific Comprehensive Plan designation, but may be allowed in the Residential Medium Density, Residential High Density, or Industrial Plan designations. In these areas, the C-N zone provides opportunity to locate small-scale commercial nodes within residential and industrial neighborhoods, giving residents and employees more convenient access to goods and services.

Reduce Vehicle Trips and Encourage Active Transportation. The C-N zone reduces automobile use and increases walking and bicycling opportunities by allowing small-scale retail, service and office commercial uses in closer proximity to homes and businesses.

(Ord. 6401 § 1, 2022; Ord. 6322 § 1, 2019)

Provide Opportunities for Higher Density Residential and Mixed-Use Development. The higher density residential and Mixed-Use residential/commercial development opportunities provided in the SCC-DT zone increase housing choices and entrepreneurial opportunities in the historic downtown.

Reduce Vehicle Trips and Encourage Active Transportation. The SCC-DT zone reduces automobile use for some daily activities by allowing higher density residential, commercial and Mixed-Use development in close proximity to light rail stations, increasing both transit use and walking and bicycling opportunities.

12.23.510 - Purpose.

Provide Full Range of Commercial Activities. The SCC-MM zone implements the Station Community Planning Area Comprehensive Plan designation at locations on arterial streets approximately 2,600 feet from an LRT platform, providing opportunity to locate a mixture of commercial and community service uses oriented City-wide.

Provide Opportunities for Higher Density Residential and Mixed-Use Development. The higher density residential and mixed-use residential/commercial development opportunities provided in the SCC-MM zone increase housing choices and entrepreneurial opportunities for larger scale businesses.

Reduce Vehicle Trips and Encourage Active Transportation. By siting a wider mix of commercial uses in SCC-MM locations on arterial streets where existing and planned street systems will support such uses, shoppers have opportunities to undertake several errands in a single trip and/or to access the commercial center by walking, bicycling or transit.
