Residential Design
Guidelines
The
design guidelines and related zoning amendments are intended to ensure that new
residential structures and additions to existing residential structures are
compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. The design guidelines
include, but are not limited to, provisions reducing the appearance of mass and
bulk; reducing paved surfaces; reducing the impacts of building height,
mezzanines, and roof decks; encouraging high quality design; and reducing the
impacts of garages on the street frontage. The zoning amendments
include, but are not limited to, establishment of Floor Area Ratio standards,
increased setback requirements, and reducing the height above existing grade of
semi-subterranean areas.
