In 2008, an update of the South Ogden City general plan was completed. This plan presented a vision, and stated a number of goals and policies to direct future development in South Ogden.

1. Goals And Policies:
   1. Goal 1: Make South Ogden City distinct and identifiable from surrounding municipalities.
      1. Policy:
         1. Develop the east and west sides of Washington Boulevard between 36th and 40th Streets into a discernible and attractive downtown for South Ogden.
         2. Encourage a major transformation of Washington Boulevard into an urban setting that establishes the sense of downtown to motorists and passersby.
   2. Goal 2: Create a distinct City Center or "heart of the community."
      1. Policy:
         1. Develop a community center in the existing downtown area where residents of South Ogden can gather for community events.
   3. Goal 3: Facilitate the careful integration of new development and redevelopment in existing neighborhoods.
      1. Policy:
         1. Encourage existing residents to remain downtown and new residents to locate in residential areas between 36th and 40th Streets.
         2. Maintain stable areas by continuing the existing scale and feel of the surrounding residential blocks.
         3. Facilitate new development and encourage new investment through allowing uses in the core to redevelop in creative, mixed residential ways.
         4. Facilitate good, nonconflicting transition between commercial and residential uses.
   4. Goal 4: Create places for the community to gather and events to draw residents to these places.
      1. Policy:
         1. Clearly designate and signify routes which connect residents to other neighborhoods and important places within the City and adjacent to it.
         2. Improve neighborhood destinations throughout the community.
   This form based code is a tool that will allow and promote these goals and policies to develop a City Center consistent with the general plan. This code plans for a future widening of 40th Street to accommodate a form of dedicated transit (streetcar, bus-rapid transit, etc.), and provides a tool to promote high quality, small scale development that maximizes development potential along the transit corridor, while minimizing impacts to adjacent neighborhoods.
2. Establishment Of Districts: Two (2) distinct districts are hereby created:
   1. South Ogden City Center.
   2. 40th Street corridor.
      
      FIGURE 1.1(1)
      
      DISTRICTS
      
      
3. Establishment Of Subdistricts: The above districts are further broken down into subdistricts (see section 10-5.1A-3, "Subdistricts," of this article). The following subdistricts are hereby created:
   1. City Center "Core."
   2. City Center "General."
   3. Riverdale Road "General."
   4. 40th Street "General."
   5. Edge. (Ord. 16-07, 6-21-2016, eff. 6-21-2016)

1. Applicability: The following are general block, lot, and street design requirements that are applicable to all subdistricts.
2. Block Configuration: Refer to figure 1.2(1) of this section for an illustration of typical block elements.
   1. The shape of a block shall be generally rectangular, but may vary due to natural features or site constraints.
   2. Blocks shall typically be two (2) lots deep with the exception of blocks containing open space. Blocks may also include an alley.
   3. Blocks shall typically be fronted with lots on at least two (2) faces, preferably on the longest street faces.
      
      FIGURE 1.2(1)
      
      TYPICAL BLOCK ELEMENTS
      
      
3. Maximum Block Size: Block sizes for residential and commercial development and redevelopment should not exceed six hundred sixty feet by three hundred thirty feet (660' x 330'), which roughly matches the historic block size surrounding the City Center. New streets should continue this block pattern.
4. Minimum Number Of Access Points: This requirement is intended to provide a minimum level of connectivity via vehicular rights-of-way between adjacent developments and to surrounding streets.
   1. Recommendation: A minimum of one per every one thousand five hundred feet (1,500') of street frontage is recommended.
5. Designated Primary Streets: Washington Boulevard, Riverdale Road, Wall, 36th Street, and 40th Street shall be designated primary streets. The intent of the primary street designation is to develop a network of streets with continuous building frontage and no or limited vehicular driveway access to reduce conflicts between pedestrians and vehicular traffic.
   1. All lots adjacent to a primary street shall front on at least one primary street and that street frontage shall serve as the front of the lot, as referred to in the building type requirements.
   2. Lots with two (2) primary street frontages shall consult with staff to determine which street frontage warrants primary designation and the front of the lot.
6. Block Access Configurations:
   1. Driveway Access: Vehicular driveway access should not be located off a primary street, unless the parcel is fronted by more than two (2) primary streets, in which case, staff shall determine which is the appropriate street for vehicular access. The determination shall be based on locations of existing and proposed vehicular access points of other developments along the primary streets. Exception: Does not apply to outdoor sales lots within the Riverdale Road General Zone.
   2. Alleys, Drives, And Driveways: Blocks may include alleys, drives, or driveway entrances with the following recommended configurations. See figure 1.2(2) of this section. Exception: Does not apply to outdoor sales lots within the Riverdale Road General Zone.
      1. Midblock Access: This configuration includes an alley or drive running through the center of the block.
      2. "T" Configuration: This configuration includes two (2) alleys within a block that are perpendicular to each other, forming a "T," allowing development to front on three (3) block faces.
      3. "H" Configuration: Similar to the "T" configuration, this configuration allows development to front on all four (4) block faces.
         
         FIGURE 1.2(2)
         
         ALLEY CONFIGURATION

         "T" Alley
         
         
         Midblock Alley
   3. Access Alignment: Access to blocks shall be aligned and located on opposite sides of the block as well as aligned across the street from access to other blocks.
   4. Midblock Pedestrianways: Midblock pedestrianways are required on blocks longer than five hundred feet (500').
      1. When combined with midblock street crossings, these pathways should align to facilitate easy pedestrian movements.
      2. Midblock pedestrianways should be located in the middle third of a block face.
      3. Minimum width for midblock pedestrianways, rights-of-way or easements is twenty feet (20').
7. Lots:
   1. Typical Lot Dimensions: All lots of record shall be developed to meet the requirements outlined in section 10-5.1A-5 of this article, building type requirements.
   2. Typical Lot Configuration: All lots shall have frontage along a public street unless otherwise specified in section 10-5.1A-5 of this article, building type requirements.
      1. Lot Shape: To create regular, rectangular lots, side property lines shall be perpendicular to the vehicular right-of-way to the extent practical.
      2. Through Lots: Through lots fronting on two (2) parallel streets are not permitted with the exception of a lot covering fifty percent (50%) or more of a block and the two (2) longest parallel street faces are treated as front property lines per building type requirements (refer to section 10-5.1A-5, "Building Types," of this article).
      3. Corner Lots: Corner lots have a front yard along one street and a corner yard along the other street. The front yard of a corner lot should be consistent with one adjacent parcel.
         1. The rear yard of a corner lot is typically the yard against an alley or another lot's rear yard.
         2. The side yard of a corner lot is adjacent to another lot.
      4. Flag Lots: Flag lots are prohibited.
8. General Open Space Requirements: The following are requirements for provision of civic open space:
   1. Development of parcels over five (5) acres is required to provide five percent (5%) total lot size as civic open space. Developer shall work with City to determine appropriate location of open space. See section 10-5.1A-6, "Open Space Types," of this article.
   2. For developments under five (5) acres, impact fees and other funding will be used as mechanisms to ensure adequate open space will be provided.
9. General Zoning District/Subdistrict Layout: For all districts/subdistricts, the following outlines how the districts/subdistricts should relate to one another.
   1. All Districts: The following applies to all zoning districts/subdistricts:
      1. Similar intensities of uses should face each other across the street.
      2. Blocks may contain multiple zoning subdistricts; however, changes in subdistricts should occur along an alley, the rear property line, or at a corner parcel.
   2. Core Subdistricts: The following applies to all core subdistricts:
      1. Core subdistricts are intended to provide a node that primarily consists of retail uses on the ground floor.
   3. Existing Residential Zones: When "core" and/or "general" subdistricts back up to the rear of existing single-family residential neighborhoods, a building stepback is required (see section 10-5.1A-5-2, figure 5.2(5) of this article). (Ord. 17-22, 11-21-2017, eff. 11-21-2017)

1. Intent: The standards outlined in this section 10-5.1A-2 are intended to:
   1. Create complete streets that address all modes of travel, including pedestrian traffic, bicycle traffic, transit, and vehicular traffic.
   2. Address all features of the street right-of-way, including sidewalks, parkways, traffic lanes, bicycle lanes, and medians.
   3. Provide adequate access to all lots for vehicles and pedestrians.
   4. Create streets that are appropriate for their contexts in residential, commercial, or mixed use subdistricts and are designed to encourage travel at appropriate volumes and speeds.
   5. Create streets and public rights-of-way that result in stormwater runoff quantity reduction and improved quality of stormwater runoff. (Ord. 16-07, 6-21-2016, eff. 6-21-2016)
2. Applicability: The standards in this section 10-5.1A-2 apply to all vehicular rights-of-way within all subdistricts.
   
   Exceptions: Washington Boulevard and Riverdale Road are UDOT roads, and the City should work with UDOT on any future design changes, so that these roads can better support the goals of this article.
   
   The future redesign of 40th Street will vary depending on whether it contains a transit line, and should be designed specifically for the type of transit mode it will contain.
   
   Riverdale Road is already established as a location for outdoor sales lots and regulations concerning street types should be carefully considered before being applied to this zone to ensure such uses remain viable. (Ord. 17-12, 5-4-2017, eff. 5-4-2017)
3. General Requirements: All proposed streets, landscape or furnishings zone, and sidewalks shall be located in dedicated vehicular rights-of-way as required by this article. (Ord. 16-07, 6-21-2016, eff. 6-21-2016)
   1. Street Types: All new vehicular rights-of-way shall match one of the street types, refer to sections 10-5.1A-2-4 through 10-5.1A-2-9 of this article, whether publicly dedicated or privately held. (Ord. 16-07, 6-21-2016, eff. 6-21-2016; amd. Ord. 17-22, 11-21-2017, eff. 11-21-2017)
   2. Public Use: All streets shall be available for public use at all times. Gated streets and streets posted as private are not permitted.
4. Street Construction Specifications: All construction in the right-of-way shall follow specifications defined by the Department of Public Works. (Ord. 16-07, 6-21-2016, eff. 6-21-2016)
   

1. Street Types: Street types defined in this section 10-5.1A-2 outline acceptable street configurations. New streets should be designed using the principles and characteristics defined by each street type. The City Manager or designee, or Public Works Director may require additional right-of-way, pavement width, or additional street elements depending on unique site characteristics.
2. Graphics: The graphics provided here, illustrating each street type, are samples of recommendations and illustrate a possible configuration of that street type. By applying the standards outlined, and working with the Department of Public Works and the City Manager, other configurations are possible.
3. Typical Street Elements: Typical elements of a vehicular right-of-way are divided into the vehicular and pedestrian realm. Each street type detailed in this article outlines which facilities are applicable. Refer to figure 2.2(1), "Typical Right-Of-Way Elements," of this section.
   
   FIGURE 2.2(1)
   
   TYPICAL RIGHT-OF-WAY ELEMENTS
   
   
   
   1. Vehicular Realm: The vehicular realm is comprised of vehicular travel lanes, bicycle lanes, and parking lanes.
   2. Pedestrian Realm: The pedestrian realm is typically comprised of pedestrian facilities, such as sidewalk, path/trail, or off street bicycle path, and a buffer area consisting of a landscape zone or furnishings zone that serves to buffer pedestrians or bicyclists from the movements of higher speed vehicles in the vehicular realm.
      1. Landscape zone: A landscape area between the back of curb or edge of pavement to the sidewalk in which street trees, swales, lighting, and signage may be located. Typically used adjacent to residential buildings.
      2. Furnishings zone: A hardscape area that extends from the sidewalk to the back of curb, in which street trees, street furniture, lighting, and signage may be located. Typically used adjacent to commercial or office buildings.
4. Vehicular Travel Lanes: The number and width of vehicular travel lanes are determined by the street type.
5. Vehicular On Street Parking: On street parking, as permitted on designated street types, shall meet the following requirements:
   1. Parallel And Diagonal Parking: Parallel and diagonal parking is permitted on designated street types.
   2. Vehicular Parking Space Dimensions: The appropriate dimensions for on street parking spaces are outlined in table 2.2(1), "On Street Parking Space Dimensions," and figure 2.2(2), "On Street Parking Layout," of this section. The width of a parking space shall be measured from the center of a stripe.

      60°	10'	9'	18'
      90°	9'	9'	20'

      (Ord. 17-22, 11-21-2017, eff. 11-21-2017)
6. Bicycle Facilities: The following types of bicycle accommodations are permitted in the vehicular realm per street type. Refer to figure 2.2(3) of this section.
   
   FIGURE 2.2(3)
   
   ON STREET BICYCLE FACILITIES
   
   
   
   1. Cycle Track: A cycle track is a separate on road bicycle facility that is typically adjacent to, but physically separated from, vehicular traffic and parking by a barrier.
   2. Dedicated Bicycle Lane: Dedicated bicycle lanes are striped lanes on the outside of the outermost travel lanes that are designated for only bicycle use. This lane occurs on both sides of the street and shall be four feet (4') to six feet (6') wide.
   3. Designated Shared Lane: A designated shared lane is a lane that is shared between vehicles and bicycles. This lane is typically wider than a standard vehicular lane, minimum thirteen feet (13'), in order to accommodate both types of users, and includes a painted bicycle marker combined with a double arrow (known as a "sharrow"). This improvement occurs in both directions.
   4. Shared Lane: A shared lane refers to a street that does not have bicycle lanes or a designated shared lane, but the speed and configuration of the street is such that bicycles could comfortably share lanes with traffic.
7. Stormwater Management: Incorporation of stormwater management best practices into the right-of-way design is encouraged, such as incorporating drainage swales and slotted curbs into the landscape zone/furnishings zone, or permeable paving in the parking lane.
8. Street Trees: Street trees are required along all street frontages, with the exception of the lane and the alley.
   1. Street trees shall be located either in a landscape zone within a planting bed or lawn, or in a furnishings zone in tree wells with a grate as required.
   2. Tree grates are required for all trees located in tree wells in pedestrian realms less than ten feet (10') in width.
   3. Spacing for large street trees shall be thirty feet (30') on center. City manager or designee may allow modifications based on site specific constraints.
9. Fire Access: Street configurations have been calculated to provide firetruck access. Where the total width of all travel lanes totaled is narrower than twenty feet (20'), the following shall apply:
   1. Room To Pass: At one hundred twenty foot (120') increments, a twenty foot (20') opening in the on street parking or a twenty foot (20') dedicated pull off space must be provided to allow vehicles to pull over for a firetruck to pass.
   2. Driveway Or Fire Hydrant Zone: A driveway or fire hydrant zone may be utilized to fulfill the requirement. (Ord. 16-07, 6-21-2016, eff. 6-21-2016)
      

1. General Layout Standards: The following standards apply to new streets or newly platted vehicular rights-of-way:
   1. Treatment Of Natural Features: Streets shall be designed to respect natural features, such as rivers, woodlands, or slopes, by following rather than interrupting or dead ending at the feature, if applicable.
   2. Street Network: The network of streets shall form an interconnected pattern with multiple intersections.
   3. Existing Streets: The arrangement of streets shall provide for the continuation of existing streets from adjoining areas into new subdivisions.
   4. Cul-De-Sac Streets: Cul-de-sacs are not permitted, unless approved by City Manager or designee due to site constraints. (Ord. 16-07, 6-21-2016, eff. 6-21-2016)
2. Intersections:
   1. Clear View: In all form based code subdistricts at any uncontrolled street intersection, the buildings will be modified to afford automobile drivers a clear view of approaching vehicles or pedestrians. Buildings, trees, or any obstruction shall be prohibited within a triangular area formed by the street curb lines and a line connecting them at points forty feet (40') from the point of intersection of the back of the curbs (clear view area). Certain sign types are exempt from the forty foot (40') clear view area. See individual sign types for specific clear view zone requirements; however, no sign can be placed so as to obstruct the view of an automobile driver.
      1. Likewise, no part of a building, tree or other obstruction such as a wall or fence greater in height than twenty four inches (24") shall be allowed at any driveway entrance so as to obstruct an automobile drivers clear view of approaching vehicles or pedestrians. Anything greater in height than twenty four inches (24") is prohibited within a triangular area formed by the street property line and the edge of the driveway, with a line connecting them at points forty feet (40') from the point of intersection of the driveway and the street (clear view area); however, trees pruned high enough to permit unobstructed vision to automobile drivers shall be allowed. Certain sign types are exempt from the forty foot (40') clear view area. See individual sign types for specific clear view zone requirements; however, no sign can be placed so as to obstruct the view of an automobile driver.
      2. Any modifications or special conditions to be approved by the City Engineer.
   2. Curb Radii: The following curb radii shall be utilized unless otherwise authorized by the City Manager or designee:
      1. Actual Turning Radius: Intersections should be designed for actual turning radius of the typical design vehicle as opposed to the maximum design vehicle. Small curb radii at intersections shorten pedestrian crossing distances and reduce vehicle turning speeds, thereby balancing the ease of travel of the vehicles and pedestrians. Refer to figure 2.3(1) of this subsection B2a. (Ord. 18-11, 9-18-2018, eff. 9-18-2018)
         
         FIGURE 2.3(1)
         
         ACTUAL RIGHT TURN RADIUS WITH ON STREET PARKING
         
         
      2. Neighborhood And Connector Streets: At the intersection of any street with a neighborhood or a connector street, the following curb radii shall be utilized:
         1. With on street parking on both streets, a five foot (5') radius may be utilized.
         2. Without on street parking, a fifteen foot (15') radius is required.
      3. Avenue Streets: At the intersection of avenues to avenues or boulevards, the following curb radii shall be utilized:
         1. With on street parking on both streets, a ten foot (10') radius is required.
         2. Without on street parking on either streets, a twenty five foot (25') radius is required.
      4. Larger Radius: When the design vehicle requires a larger curb radius and no on street parking exists, a thirty foot (30') radius may be utilized for avenues or boulevards. Larger radii require approval of the Department of Public Works.
      5. Alley Intersections: The curb radius at intersections involving alleys shall be no greater than five feet (5').
   3. Crosswalks: Crosswalks shall be required at all intersections and midblock crossings involving connectors, avenues, and boulevards.
      1. Dimensions: Crosswalks shall be minimum six feet (6') in width, measured from midstripe to midstripe, per MUTCD.
      2. Markings: Crosswalks shall be appropriately indicated on the finished street surface with painted markings and/or textured or colored pavement.
      3. Crossing Distances: To encourage pedestrian activity, typical crosswalks shall not extend over thirty eight feet (38') without a landscape median, bulb outs and/or other pedestrian refuge to mitigate the negative effects of vehicular traffic on pedestrian crossing and increase pedestrian safety and comfort. Refer to figures 2.3(2) and 2.3(3) of this subsection B3c.

      4. Accessibility: Accessible ramps and warning panels, per the American Disabilities Act or any more stringent State or City requirement, are required where all sidewalks or trails terminate at a crosswalk or curb.
      5. Ramp Orientation: Ramps shall be oriented perpendicular to traffic, requiring two (2) ramps per corner at intersecting streets.
   4. Bulb Outs: To shorten pedestrian crossing distances, bulb outs should be utilized at all intersections, unless otherwise required by the Department of Public Works. Refer to figure 2.3(3) of this subsection B.
      1. The depth of the bulb out shall match the utilized on street parking, either the width of the parallel space or the depth of the diagonal space.
      2. The radius of the bulb out shall match the requirements for the intersection. (Ord. 16-07, 6-21-2016, eff. 6-21-2016; amd. Ord. 18-11, 9-18-2018, eff. 9-18-2018)

1. Intent: The alley is a very low capacity drive located at the rear of parcels.

1. The following subdistricts are hereby created to regulate the location of distinct mixes of building forms and uses permitted within the City Center and 40th Street Corridor Districts. Refer to section 10-5.1A-4, "Uses," of this article for uses and section 10-5.1A-5, "Building Types," of this article for building types permitted within each subdistrict.
   
   The following subdistricts have been created, and each consists of a series of uses and building types that have been specifically calibrated for the subdistrict.
   1. City Center "Core": The City Center "Core" constitutes the center of the community and heart of the new City center, and includes the majority of the shops and workplaces within the City center. The storefront building type that comprises this subdistrict defines a street wall along the primary streets of the area with storefront glass windows. Upper stories of the storefront building may be utilized for living and working.
   2. City Center "General": The City Center "General" Subdistrict serves as the interstitial fabric of the City, separate from the defined center or core and the edges. This area is primarily comprised by both the storefront building, and the more generic stoop building which have lower minimum transparency levels, and is mainly occupied by office, retail and residential uses at a variety of scales. This subdistrict also permits drive-through facilities to allow more flexibility for auto oriented uses as described in 10-5.1A-5-11 F.
   3. Riverdale Road "General": The Riverdale Road "General" Subdistrict serves as the interstitial fabric of the City, separate from the defined center or core and the edges. This subdistrict also encourages and promotes outdoor sales lots. Adjustments to the general requirements should be made to ensure such uses remain viable. This area is primarily comprised by both the storefront building, and the more generic stoop building which have lower minimum transparency levels, and is mainly occupied by office, retail and residential uses at a variety of scales. This subdistrict also permits drive-through facilities and the limited bay building type to allow more flexibility for auto oriented uses.
   4. 40th Street "General": The 40th Street "General" Subdistrict combines the storefront building and stoop building to create a corridor that supports a future transit line along 40th Street. Development along this corridor will be at a smaller scale and finer grain, in relation to the City center.
   5. Edge Subdistricts: The Edge Subdistricts are made up of smaller scale residential buildings, which provide a buffer between existing single-family residential neighborhoods and the "Core" and "General" Subdistricts. (Ord. 17-12, 5-4-2017, eff. 5-4-2017)
      

1. Mapped Subdistricts: The areas and boundaries of the subdistricts listed in section 10-5.1A-3-1 of this section 10-5.1A-3 are established as shown on the map entitled "zoning map of the City of South Ogden" and referred to herein as "zoning map" on file in the City. (Ord. 16-07, 6-21-2016, eff. 6-21-2016)
   

1. General Provisions: The following general provisions apply to the uses outlined in this section 10-5.1A-4:
   1. A lot may contain more than one use.
   2. Each of the uses may function as either a principal use or accessory use on a lot, unless otherwise specified.
   3. Uses are either permitted by right in a subdistrict, permitted by right with specific development or design parameters, or require a conditional use permit (refer to subsection 10-5.1A-10-2F of this article) in order to be developed.
   4. Each use shall be located within a permitted building type (refer to section 10-5.1A-5, "Building Types," of this article), unless otherwise specified.
   5. Each use may have both indoor and outdoor facilities, unless otherwise specified.
2. Organization: The uses are grouped into general categories, which may contain lists of additional uses or clusters of uses.
   1. Unlisted Similar Use: If a use is not listed but is similar in nature and impact to a use permitted within a zoning subdistrict, the City Manager or designee may interpret the use as permitted.
      1. The unlisted use will be subject to any development standards applicable to the similar permitted use.
      2. If the unlisted use is similar in nature and impact to a use requiring a conditional use permit, the City Manager or designee may interpret the use as also requiring a conditional use permit.
   2. Unlisted Dissimilar Use: If a use is not listed and cannot be interpreted as similar in nature and impact to a use within a zoning subdistrict that is either permitted or requires a conditional use permit, the use is not permitted and may only be approved through an amendment of this article. (Ord. 19-06, 4-16-2019, eff. 4-16-2019)
3. Use Table: Table 4.1(1), "Uses By Subdistrict," of this subsection C outlines the permitted uses in each zoning subdistrict. Each use is given one of the following designations for each zoning subdistrict in which that use is permitted:
   1. Permitted ("P"): These uses are permitted by right in the subdistricts in which they are listed.
   2. Permitted With Development Standards ("P2"): These uses are permitted by right in the subdistricts in which they are listed, provided that they are developed utilizing the listed development standards. These standards are intended to alleviate any negative impacts associated with the use, making it appropriate in a subdistrict where it otherwise might not have been appropriate.
   3. Requires A Conditional Use Permit ("C"): These uses require administrative review and approval (refer to subsection 10-5.1A-10-2F of this article) in order to occur in the subdistricts in which they are listed and must follow any applicable development standards associated with the use as well as meet the requirements of the conditional use.
   4. Not Permitted: Listed uses that are not permitted in the subdistrict are indicated by a blank space.

1. Description And Intent: The civic building is the most flexible building type intended only for civic and institutional types of uses. These buildings are distinctive within the urban fabric created by the other building types and could be designed as iconic structures. In contrast to most of the other building types, a minimum setback line is required instead of a build-to zone, though this setback is required to be landscaped. Parking is limited to the rear in most cases.
   
   The minimum and maximum heights of this building type depend on the subdistrict within which it is located.
2. Regulations: Regulations for the civic building type are defined in the table in this section.
