Section 16.20.120. DOWNTOWN CENTER DISTRICTS ("DC") |
§ 16.20.120.2. Purpose and intent.
Latest version.
Development regulations for the downtown require the base of all buildings to create and maintain a strongly defined street edge, while allowing and encouraging larger and taller buildings to be constructed above and stepped back into the property. By reinforcing the street edges, providing active uses, concealing parking areas, and requiring streetscape improvements, vibrant activity will continue at the street level, which reinforces the unique pedestrian scale of the downtown.
