88-205 OVERLAY DISTRICTS GENERALLY
Overlay districts are for areas of the city that have unique qualities
requiring special treatment or locations where special approaches to development may be warranted. They are established as a means of
addressing specific aspects of land use control or development design that
transcend base zoning district provisions. Overlay districts permit greater design
flexibility than otherwise permitted by the conventional standards of this
zoning and development code. As the name implies, overlay districts "over-lay" applicable base district
classification to alter some or all of the zoning regulations that apply to
particular sites. Overlay districts may be appropriate in areas where there are
natural resource considerations, where historic preservation is needed, where
there is the need to balance institutional development with the need to preserve surrounding neighborhoods,
to maintain community character, for infrastructure protection or to accomplish
city policy objectives for specific areas.
The
purpose of overlay districts is to allow the city to establish special land use
regulations, standards, or procedures in areas with unique land use, site
planning, building design or environmental resource issues. An overlay may
protect and preserve established character of existing areas of historical note
or architectural merit by limiting provisions of underlying base districts in order to more effectively match the density and intensity or established character of the area.
The overlay may control demolitions and regulate the preservation, restoration,
and rehabilitation of existing structures as well as the design of new infill construction. The
overlay may also be used to establish allowable land uses that are more prohibitive than the underlying
district and to establish specific design guidelines that are more detailed
than the standards of this zoning and development code. Overlay zoning
districts are intended to:
88-205-02-A.
Protect an area's rare, unique or distinctive character through the
use of development/design standards and guidelines to:
1.
encourage development that conforms to the size, orientation, and setting of existing buildings; and
2.
regulate building setbacks and orientation, lot dimension,
site/building design, and related physical characteristics that exemplify the
positive characteristics of an area;
88-205-02-B.
Reduce the need for zoning variances for development that conforms to the site, orientation, and setting
of existing buildings in an area;
88-205-02-C.
Conserve cultural resources, preserve historic resources, stabilize
property values, and reduce investment risks within an identified area;
88-205-02-D.
Maintain and promote the economic vitality of an area; and establish
development/design standards to implement an adopted neighborhood or area plan.
88-205-03-A. Overlay districts must
be established in accordance with the zoning map amendment procedures
of 88-515.
88-205-03-B.
Components that may be included in an overlay district ordinance are:
1.
purpose statement, tying the overlay to
the goals and objectives of the comprehensive plan, citing the public necessity
behind the intent and making a direct connection to protecting the public
health, safety, morals, general welfare, and aesthetics;
2.
location and area of applicability;
3.
spatial definitions, with rules for
spatial definition as simple and understandable as possible (Provide the
information in a way the public can understand. Use graphics as much as
possible);
4.
procedures for applications, specifying
any additional information needed to demonstrate compliance with the overlay
district regulations;
5.
special definitions, as needed;
6.
standards for review and approval to be
used by review and decision-making bodies;
7.
permitted, prohibited and special uses;
8.
review and decision-making bodies
charged with reviewing development applications and determining compliance with overlay district
regulations;
9.
appeals process; and
10.
variance and administrative adjustment
rules, if different for the overlay district.
88-205-03-C.
Multiple historic, neighborhood, and/or special review overlays may not
be designated over any individual property.
88-205-03-D.
Historic, neighborhood, and design review overlays and any associated
standards or guidelines must reflect the prevalent intensity and consistent
building design in the neighborhood, to ensure that new development reflects
the identifiable physical character of the area.
88-205-03-E.
Applications for establishment of a neighborhood conservation overlay
must be accompanied by the fee amount that has been established by the city
council. Application fees are nonrefundable 5 working days after application
filing, provided that the city planning and development director may grant a
partial refund for good cause shown by the applicant.
88-205-04 DESIGN GUIDELINES AND STANDARDS
88-205-04-A.
Overlay regulations may be used to replace all zoning or some of the base zoning restrictions.
It may also be used to enact new regulations for an area.
88-205-04-B.
An overlay may encompass one or more base zoning districts.
88-205-04-C.
When overlay district standards conflict with applicable base district
standards or other regulations of this zoning and development code, the
regulations of the overlay district always govern.
88-205-04-D.
When no special overlay district standards are specified, the base district standards
and all other applicable regulations of this zoning and development code will
govern.
88-205-04-E.
When development/design guidelines have been approved, each building permit
application for new construction or exterior alteration within the designed
overlay district must comply with those standards.
88-205-04-F.
Overlay district regulations may allow for the modification of any of the
following standards within the zoning and development code:
1.
land uses (principal or accessory);
2.
lot and building standards (e.g., density, lot area, setbacks, height);
3.
site design standards including building coverage; required open space; location of driveways,
parking pads, and garages;
4.
landscaping and buffering standards,
layout of public way, vehicular and pedestrian circulation patterns;
5.
sign standards;
6.
lighting standards; or
7.
other zoning-related standards
necessary to address unique zoning, platting or development features.
88-205-04-G. An overlay
district may allow for restrictions on building design or placement details,
including scale, mass, materials, and architectural style.
88-205-04-H.
Where appropriate, an overlay may require the application of specific design
guidelines in the review of development.
1.
Such guidelines must be established as
part of the overlay district at the time of adoption. The review process must be
included in the design guidelines.
2.
Guidelines for new infill construction
within an overlay district may be different than those for existing buildings.
88-205-05 AMENDMENT OR REMOVAL OF AN OVERLAY
An overlay district may be
amended or removed only in accordance with the zoning map amendment procedures
of 88-515.
88-205-06 VARIANCES AND ADMINISTRATIVE
ADJUSTMENTS
Within any established overlay
district, applicants may seek authorized zoning variances pursuant to 88-565 except as
modified by the provisions of this section but may not seek administrative
adjustments pursuant to procedures 88-570 unless
specifically permitted by the enabling overlay district ordinance.
88-205-07 DOCUMENTATION OF OVERLAYS
88-205-07-A.
Once an overlay district is approved by the city council, the city
planning and development department must amend the official zoning maps to
identify the overlay district boundaries and designation, together with the
underlying zoning designation.
88-205-07-B.
The city planning and development department must maintain a list of
established overlay districts by
type.

88-210 CXO, ADULT ENTERTAINMENT
OVERLAY DISTRICT
The
purpose of the CXO, adult entertainment overlay district is to identify and
prescribe specific requirements and conditions for the location of certain
defined adult entertainment activities. The district is designed as an overlay
district in certain zoning districts based on the regional character of the
activities. Adult entertainment uses do not occur on a frequent basis and require separate
and specifically designed regulations for their development. Such adult
entertainment uses are recognized as having serious objectionable operational
characteristics, particularly if several of such uses are concentrated, thereby
having a deleterious effect upon adjacent areas. The location of such uses has
an additional deleterious effect upon adjacent areas and could contribute to
the blighting and downgrading of the surrounding neighborhood. The special
regulation of adult entertainment uses is necessary to ensure that the adverse
effect of such uses will not contribute to the blighting or downgrading of
surrounding neighborhoods, whether residential or nonresidential, by location
or concentration, and to ensure the stability of such neighborhoods.
88-210-02 ESTABLISHMENT OF CXO
OVERLAY DISTRICT
88-210-02-A.
The CXO overlay district may be established only in accordance with the zoning
map amendment procedure of 88-515, provided that the city

2.
the proposed use to be constructed or
operated will neither negatively impact nor materially injure property within
1,000 feet of the proposed CXO district boundaries.
88-210-02-B.
No CXO district may be established without the submission and approval of a
development plan. Failure to comply with the development plan approved and
established as part of the CXO district is an express violation of this zoning
and development code, enforceable under 88-615.
88-210-02-C.

88-225 NCO, NEIGHBORHOOD CONSERVATION OVERLAY
DISTRICT
88-225-01 PURPOSE
Neighborhood
Conservation Overlay districts are used to identify sites and areas within the
city that represent clearly defined neighborhoods or commercial areas with
predominantly consistent historic or architectural character. Although
neighborhood overlay districts typically protect groups of buildings that
have some historical significance, historic preservation is not the only goal.
Neighborhood overlay districts seek to preserve an area's cultural,
architectural, and aesthetic ambience. The purpose of
the NCO, Neighborhood Conservation Overlay district, is to protect and preserve
the established character of existing neighborhoods by limiting the flexibility
of underlying base zoning to more effectively match the density, intensity or established character of an existing area.
The NCO district may also be used to establish specific design guidelines that
are more detailed than the standards of this ordinance.
88-225-02 APPLICATION FILING
88-225-02-A.
An NCO district application may be initiated by:
1. a petition requesting NCO district
designation signed by a simple majority (50 percent + 1 property owner) of the property owners within the proposed district; or
2. the city council or the city planning and
development director, acting on the city's behalf.
88-225-02-B. Each NCO district must be
established by a separate NCO district ordinance.
88-225-02-C. The standards or guidelines
proposed for the overlay must be included with the application for designation.
The associated standards and guidelines:
1.
Must reflect the prevalent
intensity and consistent building design in the neighborhood, to ensure that
new development reflects the identifiable physical character of the
area.
2.
May but are not required to
include design features (e.g., front porches, window style, color, etc.);
type/style of architecture; location, size, scale, and massing relative to
adjacent structures; and other features that specifically relate to the
district as a whole and any and all subdistricts being established.
3.
Must identify projects which may
be approved by the city planning and development director as described in 88-225-06 and projects which must be reviewed by the overlay
design review board.
88-225-02-D. The application must include or be
accompanied by the following:
1.
Application fee.
2.
Map showing the existing zoning and uses on all of the land in the area of request, and on all of
the land within 300 feet, including streets and alleys, measured from the boundary of the area of request.
3.
A list of the names and addresses of
all property owners in the area of request.
4.
A list of all neighborhood associations or other organizations representing the interests of property owners in the area
of request. This list should include information as the officers' names,
mailing addresses, and phone numbers.
5.
A statement of justification. This
statement should:
a.
point out the factors which render the
area of request eligible for NCO district classification; and
b.
explain in detail how and why such a
classification would be in the best interest of the city as a whole.
6.
A description of the prevalent architectural and cultural attributes of the area, supported by a map denoting examples of such
attributes.
7.
Any additional information that the
city planning and development director determines to be necessary competent and
sufficient review of the application.
88-225-03 DETERMINATION OF ELIGIBILITY
FOR NCO DISTRICT
88-225-03-A. In reviewing and making decisions on NCO
district applications, the city planning and development director, overlay
design review board, city plan commission, and city council must consider at
least the following factors:
1. conformance with adopted plans and
planning policies;
2. zoning and use of nearby property;
3. physical character of the area; and
4. the extent to which designation of the NCO
district will either improve or detrimentally affect nearby properties.
88-225-03-B. To be eligible for NCO district
classification, an area must satisfy all of the following criteria:
1. The area must contain at least one
blockface.
2. The area must be either "stable"
or "stabilizing."
3. The area must contain significant architectural, natural or cultural attributes.
4. The area must have a distinctive
atmosphere or character that can be conserved by protecting or enhancing its
architectural or cultural attributes.
5. The district must be a contiguous area of
at least 10 acres, provided that the overlay design review board may recommend
and the city council may approve an NCO district with less than 10 acres if the
city council determines that the area has an identifiable character and that an
NCO district will help stabilize the tax base, encourage investment, and
promote the preservation of architectural, natural and/or cultural resources.
88-225-04 DESIGNATION OF DISTRICT AND
SUBDISTRICT
NCO districts may be designated only in accordance with the
zoning map amendment procedures of 88-515, except as modified by the
provisions of this series.
88-225-04-A. An NCO district may be established
as one district or may be composed of various subdistricts that have certain
common requirements but differ in certain elements, while remaining
complementary to the district as a whole.
88-225-04-B. The designation of an NCO district
must include:
1. designation of a specific area by rezoning
as an overlay district (in the case of subdistricts, each subdistrict must be
separately described);
2. development of specific standards and guidelines
related to all or any of the standards for scale and form, facade composition, site design, intensity,
garages, and accessory structures, etc. applicable to the district as a
whole and to any subdistricts.
3. identification of uses, in the district as a whole or in any or
all subdistricts, that would otherwise be allowed in the underlying base zoning district but are prohibited in the NCO district or
one or more subdistricts as consistent with the purposes of the NCO district.
88-225-04-C. Applications initiated by petition for
NCO district designation must be submitted to the city planning and development
director.
1. The city planning and development director
must review NCO district applications for completeness and determine if
additional information is needed. The city has 28 days from the date the
application is submitted to determine whether it is complete. A determination
of completeness, however, does not preclude the city from requesting additional
information.
2. The city planning and development director
must determine the eligibility of an area being considered for NCO district
designation based on 88-225-03. If the city planning and development
director determines that the area is not eligible for NCO district designation,
the applicant must be notified of this fact in writing through the mail to the
address shown on the application. The decision of the planning and development
director that an area is not eligible for NCO district designation may be
appealed to the overlay design review board.
3. An appeal under 88-225-04-C.2 may be made
only by filing a written request with the city planning and development
director. The request must be filed within 30 days of the date of the decision
of the city planning and development director. In considering the appeal, the
sole factor to be considered is whether the city planning and development
director erred in their determination of eligibility. The overlay design review
board must consider the same standards that were required to be considered by
the city planning and development director in making their determination.
4. The overlay design review board's
determination of eligibility on appeal is final. If the board determines that
the area is not eligible for NCO district designation, no further applications
for NCO district classification may be considered for the area of request for 2
years from the date of its decision.
5. If the area is determined to be eligible
for NCO district designation, the city planning and development director must
schedule a public meeting for the purpose of informing property owners in the proposed district of the nature of
the pending request. The planning and development director must send notice of
the time and place of the meeting by mail to property owners within the
proposed district and registered neighborhood
organizations whose boundaries include all or a portion
of the proposed NCO district.
6. If the city planning and development
director determines the application is complete and the area is eligible, a
letter of completeness and eligibility must be issued to the applicant. The
decision of the city planning and development director that an area is eligible
for NCO district designation may not be appealed.
88-225-04-D. OTHER THAN
PETITION INITIATED APPLICATIONS
1. The city planning and development director
must determine the eligibility of the application area in accordance with 88-225-03 and prepare the application in accordance
with 88-225-02-D.
2. Once an area is determined eligible for
NCO district classification:
3. A public meeting must be scheduled to
inform property owners in the proposed district of the nature of the pending
NCO district request. The notice of the time and place of the meeting must be
mailed to all property owners and registered neighborhood
organizations in the proposed district.
4. Following the initial meeting, community
meetings must be held to receive input from property owners to determine the
characteristics of the neighborhood and regulations needed in the NCO district
ordinance to preserve those characteristics. Planning staff will work with the
neighborhood to create the standards and guidelines. A draft of the NCO
district ordinance will be made available for review.
88-225-04-E. HEARING,
RECOMMENDATION, AND FINAL ACTION
1. The overlay design review board must hold
a public hearing on the proposed NCO district ordinance and standards and
guidelines. Notices must be provided in accordance with 88-225-04. Following
the close of the hearing, the overlay design review board must act in
accordance with 88-605-05-F. to recommend to the city
plan commission that the application for NCO district designation be approved,

Historic Overlay districts are
used to identify sites and areas within the city with structures and
groupings of structures that are of historic, stylistic or thematic
significance, as identified by historic resources surveys. The HO, Historic Overlay district is intended to help
protect, preserve, and enhance places, districts, sites, buildings, structures, and other features having a special historical,
architectural, cultural, or aesthetic value. The HO district is further
intended to:
88-235-01-A. stimulate revitalization and
preservation of the residential, civic, and business areas;
88-235-01-B. promote economic progress through
heritage tourism;
88-235-01-C. provide for the designation,
protection, preservation, rehabilitation, and restoration of historic districts
and properties; and facilitate the city's efforts to participate in federal or
state historic preservation programs.
88-235-02 EFFECT
The HO district is an overlay zoning classification that
establishes additional restrictions and standards on those uses permitted by the underlying zoning district. In the
event of conflict between the overlay zoning district regulations and the
regulations of the underlying zoning district, the overlay zoning regulations
govern. In all other cases, both the overlay zoning and underlying zoning
regulations apply.
88-235-03 USES
The use regulations of the underlying zoning district
govern. The HO district does not impose any additional use restrictions.
88-235-04 DEVELOPMENT/DESIGN STANDARDS
In establishing an HO district, the historic preservation
commission and city plan commission are authorized to propose and the city
council is authorized to adopt, district-specific development and design standards to guide development and redevelopment within the subject HO district.
When development and design standards have been approved, each application for
new construction or alteration of an existing building within the designated HO
must comply with those standards. When there are conflicts between the
standards of the underlying base zoning district and adopted HO district design/development standards,
the HO design/development standards will govern.

FILING
- Applications for
designation of historic districts, landmarks, or overlay zoning districts
(collectively referenced as HO districts) may be made by the owner(s) of
record of the subject property, any other person or organization with the
full consent and written approval of the owner(s) of record of a subject
property, a member of the historic preservation commission, a member of
the city council, the neighborhood association for the area in which that
property is located, a historic preservation organization, or any other
person or organization where at least 51% of the owners of the affected
parcels in a proposed district do not object to the nomination (exclusive
of all publicly owned property, streets, and alleys).
- Complete
applications for designation of HO districts must be filed in the office
of the historic preservation commission. Applications must contain a
legal description of the property and a statement describing its historic,
cultural, aesthetic, or architectural significance.
- The city planning
and development director shall notify the owner of any property within a
