Approval of mixed use zoning in conjunction with the housing development if nonresidential land uses will reduce the cost of the housing development and if the City finds that the proposed nonresidential uses are compatible with the housing development and with existing or planned development in the area where the proposed housing development will be located.
3.
Modifications of those development standards included in § 36-18.20.7D.
4.
Deferred development impact fees (e.g., capital facilities, parkland in-lieu, park facilities, fire, or traffic impact fees).
