b. Valet parking spaces for a use located on a different site than for which the parking is to be provided is allowed only if the following three conditions are met:

c. Valet parking facilities, when provided, must comply with the additional development regulations of Section 1206.G.

a. The minimum depth required is inclusive of sidewalk provided within the streetscape zone.

a. The depth of the frontage zone is measured from and perpendicular to the property line abutting the street.

b. If the Street Transportation Department allows a sidewalk easement to be dedicated in lieu of required ROW based upon the adopted Street Classification Map, and/or a public utility easement is dedicated, the frontage zone depth shall be measured from the back of the easement. If both easements are dedicated over the same area, the setback shall be from the larger easement.

c. Frontage zones and associated development regulations apply only to the first 25 feet of the development as measured vertically above the finished grade.

d. Frontage zones do not apply where parcels abut dedicated alleys.

a. In cases where the existing streetscape zone does not meet the minimum depth required, the frontage zone depth shall be increased by the same amount as the deficiency in the streetscape zone depth, unless the streetscape zone can be brought into compliance within the existing ROW, or by dedication of additional ROW as approved by the Street Transportation Department.

b. When the minimum frontage zone depth is 15 feet or greater, Planning and Development staff have the authority to reduce the frontage zone depth by up to five feet so long as the streetscape zone is increased by the same amount.

c. Additional easement dedications may be required if public sidewalks, public utilities, or other public amenities are provided within the frontage zone. (T)

a. Along pedestrian streets, the streetscape zone area should be designed primarily for pedestrians, providing shade, easy access to building entrances, and complementary landscaping.

b. Along side streets, the streetscape zone area is expected to have automobile access, parking and loading access, as well as service areas adjoining them, while still serving pedestrians.

a. Cantilevered structural shade elements projecting from the building are not subject to minimum setback requirements and are allowed to project into the public right-of-way (with approval of an encroachment permit) so long as the structures do not preclude the installation of required street trees. The shade elements shall be removable, unless otherwise approved in writing by all affected City departments and utilities. (T)

b. Stairs/steps/accessible ramps to building entrances (other than those required for public street crossings or existing grade differentials within the public right-of-way) are not permitted within the streetscape zone. Retaining walls within the streetscape zone are regulated by Section 1204.D. (T)

c. Transformers and other mechanical equipment are not permitted to be located within the streetscape zone. (T)

a. Development regulations for uses permitted within the streetscape zone shall be the same as those provided for the adjacent frontage zone, unless specific regulations for the use or structure located within the streetscape zone are provided elsewhere within this chapter.

b. Uses which are permitted by right or with conditions for a site per Section 1203, Land Use Matrix, that are not specifically permitted to be conducted within the right-of-way per other provisions of this chapter, may be permitted within the right-of-way adjacent to the site with the issuance of an encroachment permit approved by the Street Transportation Department, if the following are complied with:

c. Uses which are permitted with approval of a use permit or special permit for a site per Section 1203, Land Use Matrix, that are not specifically permitted to be conducted within the right-of-way per other provisions of this chapter, may be permitted within the right-of-way adjacent to the site with the issuance of an encroachment permit approved by the Street Transportation Department if the following are complied with:

a. Location. The required public sidewalk shall be located within the streetscape zone, subject to the following:

b. Elevation. The required public sidewalk should be constructed no higher than six inches above the immediately adjacent street top of curb. Additional elevation may be permitted without a technical appeal when the area between the back of curb and sidewalk has a slope no steeper than 10:1 and no retaining walls are provided. (T)

Rationale: Most of the sidewalks in Downtown are existing and historic. Sidewalks reconstructed higher than six inches above the adjacent top of curb can make access from on-street parking difficult; can provide challenges with ADA compliance; can cause steep slopes within adjacent landscape areas which encourage erosion and discourage the growth of plants and trees; and can interrupt the visual and historic continuity of the neighborhood. If the finished floor of the building(s) are higher than six inches above the top of curb, ramps and/or steps should be provided from the sidewalk to the building entries, rather than raising the sidewalk, unless it can be done in a very gradual manner.

c. Planning and Development staff may allow a decrease in the minimum required sidewalk width of up to one foot in the case of conflicts with existing utilities or other existing obstacles which cannot otherwise be avoided. (T)

d. The required sidewalk shall be clear of all obstacles for the full minimum required sidewalk width. Approved amenities and landscaping (including tree grates) shall only be allowed within portions of the sidewalk wider than the minimum required. (T)

e. Sidewalks located within the public right-of-way shall be constructed using materials and methods approved by the Street Transportation Department. (T)

f. Where setback sidewalks exist on a block face where there is an HP designated property, the sidewalk should remain within the historic alignment for that block face and not be offset by more than one foot. (P)

Rationale: Historic streetscapes are generally defined by a consistent sidewalk and landscape area along a single block face. These streetscapes are an important part of the Downtown Phoenix character and should be maintained whenever possible.

g. The required sidewalk should not have jogs and offsets, and should be in a straight line unless navigation around existing conflicts in the streetscape zone is unavoidable. (P)

Rationale: Pedestrians of all capabilities should be able to navigate sidewalks easily and not have unnecessary diversions around landscape, amenities, transformers, or similar potential obstructions.

a. For wall/fence requirements, refer to Section 1207.D and any applicable frontage element regulations.

b. For retaining wall requirements, refer to Section 1204.D and any applicable frontage element regulations.

b. The minimum building frontage requirement shall be calculated as a percentage of the length of the frontage property line, and the facade shall be measured by a line parallel with the frontage property line. For the purposes of this calculation only, the following may be subtracted from the length of the frontage property line:

c. All portions of the building facade abutting or located within the frontage zone, including frontage elements, may be used to calculate the required minimum building frontage. Certain frontage elements may provide additional flexibility in calculating the required minimum building frontage, as stated elsewhere in this chapter.

d. Underground structures cannot be counted toward meeting minimum building frontage requirements.

a. Alternative paving materials should be used when possible within the frontage zone to reduce the urban heat island effect, and to allow natural drainage and filtration. (T)

b. Permeable paving, porous concrete or similar material should be installed adjacent to tree wells. The design should ensure adequate watering and root growth. (T)

c. Alternative materials such as brick pavers, permeable concrete pavers, granite and flagstone should be encouraged on private walkways and patio/gathering areas. (T)

a. Landscape shall be provided in accordance with Section 1204.G. (T)

b. Seating should be provided. Seating may consist of installed benches or removable furniture. This shall not apply within the Roosevelt North, Roosevelt South, and East Evergreen character areas. (P)

Rationale: Character areas consisting mainly of traditional single-family homes and historic designations should maintain the residential character of private front yards when possible.

c. Other features which attract and engage pedestrians should be provided, such as (but not limited to) bicycle parking and amenities, exterior art installations, additional structural shade, etc. (P)

Rationale: The area of a frontage zone not adjacent to a frontage element, where conflicts with primary entrances are less likely to occur, should have other features which encourage use by pedestrians and cyclists.

e. When two rows of trees are provided either side of the public sidewalk, the minimum planting area for each row should be five feet wide, unless tree wells are approved by the PDD Landscape Architect. (T)

f. Where hardscape is not necessary for pedestrian connections to amenities, drop off/pickup zones, on-street parking, or similar, shrubs or groundcovers shall be installed in addition to trees to provide 75 percent live coverage. This percentage may be reduced to 50 percent if bioswales are approved for use within the streetscape zone. (T)

g. Unless prohibited by law, palm trees may be installed in the streetscape zone in areas where palm trees have historically been provided in the ROW, in addition to any required shade trees. Palm trees should be of the same type as existing historic palm trees and planted in a similar manner/rate as existing on the same block face. (T)

h. In areas where turf has historically been provided within the streetscape zone, turf may be provided unless otherwise prohibited for use within the ROW by law. Alternatively, low growing, drought-tolerant green ground covers may instead be provided, as approved by the PDD Landscape Architect. (T)
