TABLE 1. TRANSECT ZONE DESCRIPTIONS
This table describes the intent of each transect zone.

TABLE 2A. PUBLIC FRONTAGES - GENERAL
The public frontage is the area between the private lot line and the edge of vehicular lanes.

TABLE 2B. PUBLIC FRONTAGES - SPECIFIC
This table assembles prescriptions and dimensions for the public frontage elements, curbs, walkways, and planters, relative to specific thoroughfare types within transect zones. Item a of this table assembles all of the elements for the various thoroughfare types.

TABLE 2C. THOROUGHFARE ASSEMBLIES
These thoroughfares are assembled from the elements that appear in tables 2A and 2B of this section. The key gives the thoroughfare type followed by the right-of-way width, followed by the pavement width, and in some instances followed by specialized transportation capability.

TABLE 3B. VEHICULAR LANE AND PARKING ASSEMBLIES
The projected design speeds determine the dimensions of the vehicular lanes and turning radii assembled for thoroughfares.

TABLE 3C. PUBLIC LIGHTING
Lighting varies in brightness and also in the character of the fixtures according to transect zone. The table shows four (4) common types. All lighting plans shall comply with the town night sky protection ordinance, title 15, chapter 15.28 of this code.

TABLE 4. PUBLIC PLANTING
The table shows five (5) common types of street tree shapes and their appropriateness with the transect zones. Refer to title 15, chapter 15.12 of this code for recommended and prohibited plant list.

TABLE 5A. PRIVATE FRONTAGES
The private frontage is the area between the building facades and the lot lines.

TABLE 5B. PRIVATE FRONTAGE WALLS/FENCING
Wall/fencing requirements at frontage line.

TABLE 6. BUILDING CONFIGURATION
A.	This table shows the configurations for different building heights for transect zones. N = maximum height as specified in table 12, item K of this section.

	1.	Building height shall be measured in number of stories, excluding attics. Height limits also do not apply to masts, belfries, clock towers, chimney flues, water tanks, elevator bulkheads, and similar structures.
	2.	Stories may not exceed fourteen feet (14') in height from finished floor to finished floor, except for a first story commercial function, which shall be a minimum of eleven feet (11') and may be a maximum of eighteen feet (18').
	3.	Height shall be measured from the average of the enfronting sidewalk or frontage line to the uppermost eave of a main pitched floor (not of a dormer), or to the uppermost roof deck (not the top of parapet), of a flat roof.

TABLE 7. BUILDING DISPOSITION
This table approximates the location of the structure relative to the boundaries of each individual lot, establishing suitable basic building types for each transect zone.
A.	Edge yard: Specific types - single-family house, cottage, hacienda, urban villa. A building that occupies the center of its lot with setbacks on all sides. This is the least urban of types as the front yard sets it back from the frontage, while the side yards weaken the spatial definition of the thoroughfare. The rear yard can be secured for privacy by fences and a back building and/or outbuilding.

B.	Side yard: Specific types - double house, zero lot line house, twin. A building that occupies one side of the lot with the setback to the other side. A shallow frontage setback defines a more urban condition. If the adjacent building is similar with a blank party wall, the yard can be quite private. This type permits systematic climate orientation in response to the sun or the breeze. If a side yard house abuts a neighboring side yard house, the type is known as a twin or double house. Energy costs, and sometimes noise, are reduced by sharing a party wall in this disposition.

C.	Rear yard: Specific types - townhouse, live-work unit, loft building, apartment house, mixed use block, flex building, perimeter block. A building that occupies the full frontage, leaving the rear of the lot as the sole yard. This is a very urban type as the continuous facade steadily defines the public thoroughfare. The rear elevations may be articulated for functional purposes. In its residential form, this type is the row house. For its commercial form, the rear yard can accommodate substantial parking.

D.	Courtyard: Specific types - compound, patio house. A building that occupies the boundaries of its lot while internally defining one or more private portals. This is the most urban type, as it is able to shield the private realm from all sides while strongly defining the public thoroughfare. Because of its ability to accommodate incompatible activities, masking them from all sides, it is recommended for workshops, lodging and schools. The high security provided by the continuous enclosure is useful for crime prone areas.

E.	Specialized: A building that is not subject to categorization. Buildings dedicated to manufacturing and transportation are often distorted by the trajectories of machinery. Civic buildings, which may express the aspirations of institutions, may be included.

TABLE 8. BUILDING FUNCTION; GENERAL
	T-2, T-3	T-4	T-5
This table categorizes building function with transect zones. Parking requirements are correlated to functional intensity. For specific function and use permitted by right or conditional use permit, see table 10 of this section.
A. Residential	Restricted residential: The number of dwellings on each lot is restricted to 1 within a principal building and 1 within an accessory building, with 2.0 parking places for each dwelling. Both dwellings shall be under single ownership. The habitable area of the accessory dwelling shall not exceed 440 sq. ft.	Limited residential: The number of dwellings on each lot is limited by the requirement of 1.5 parking places for each dwelling, a ratio which may be reduced according to the shared parking factor (see table 9 of this section).	Open residential: The number of dwellings on each lot is limited by the requirement of 1.0 parking places for each dwelling, a ratio which may be reduced according to the shared parking factor (see table 9 of this section).

The lodging must be owner or manager occupied. Food service may be provided in the a.m. The maximum length of stay is 10 days.	Limited lodging: The number of bedrooms available on each lot for lodging is limited by the requirement of 1.0 assigned parking place for each bedroom, up to 12, in addition to the parking requirement for the dwelling. The lodging must be owner or manager occupied. Food service may be provided in the a.m. The maximum length of stay is 10 days. Applicable in T-5a.	Open lodging: The number of bedrooms available on each lot is limited by the requirement of 1.0 parking places for each bedroom. Food service may be provided at all times. The area allocated for food service shall be calculated and provided with parking according to retail function.
C. Office	Restricted office: The building area available for office use on each lot is restricted to the first story of the principal or the accessory building and by the requirement of 3.0 assigned parking places per 1,000 sq. ft. of net office space in addition to the parking requirement for each dwelling.	Limited office: The building area available for office use on each lot is limited to the first story of the principal building and/or the accessory building, and by the requirement of 3.0 assigned parking places per 1,000 sq. ft. of net office space in addition to the parking requirement for each dwelling.	Open office: The building area available for office use on each lot is limited by the requirement of 2.0 assigned parking places per 1,000 sq. ft. of net office space.
D. Retail	Restricted retail: The building area available for retail use is restricted to 1 corner lot per block at the first story of each 300 dwelling units and by the requirement of 4.0 assigned parking places per 1,000 sq. ft. of net retail space in addition to the parking requirement for each dwelling. The specific use shall be further limited to neighborhood store or restaurant seating no more than 20.	Limited retail: The building area available for retail use is limited to the first story of buildings at corner lots, not more than 1 per block, and by the requirement of 4.0 assigned parking places per 1,000 sq. ft. of net retail space in addition to the parking requirement of each dwelling. The specific use shall be further limited to neighborhood store and restaurant seating no more than 40. Applicable in T-5a.	Open retail: The building area available for retail use is limited to the requirement of 3.0 assigned parking places per 1,000 sq. ft. of net retail space. Retail spaces under 1,500 sq. ft. are exempt from the parking requirement.

F. Other	See table 10 of this section.	See table 10 of this section.	See table 10 of this section.

TABLE 9. PARKING CALCULATIONS
The sum of the required parking for any two (2) functions listed in table 9A of this section, when divided by the appropriate shared parking factor in table 9B of this section, results in the actual parking required for each lot. Conversely, the actual parking may be multiplied by the shared parking factor to determine the effective parking credit that controls possible density.
