(e)	TND—Traditional neighborhood development districts. 
(1)	Purpose. The overall purpose of this district is to create and enhance urban neighborhoods with a variety and intermixing of uses that complement the established surrounding communities. In order to accomplish these purposes, the TND districts permit multiple uses and may occur vertically or horizontally. This land use district is designed to work together to result in lively, prosperous neighborhoods that serve as attractive places to live, work, shop, and recreate. Traditional neighborhood developments will encompass the following: 
a.	A mix of commercial and residential uses with design amenities that provide equal accommodations for pedestrians, motorists and bicyclist. 
b.	Create a grid pattern from existing and new streets as may be established by a local street plan. The street plan should provide the transportation and development framework of the area that accommodates pedestrian, bicycle, transit and automobile travel. 
c.	Provide flexibility over the entire District to allow for a complimentary mixture of uses across the parcel.
d.	Provide for creative facade designs that reflect a more village center feel over that of a shopping center, thereby providing for a vibrant pedestrian environment. 
e.	Allow for different types of compatible land uses close together in appropriate locations to shorten transportation trips and facilitate multi-modal development. 
(2)	Requirements. Traditional neighborhood developments shall meet the following requirements: 
a.	Site plan approval shall be obtained in accordance with the special use permit procedures described in section 22-23 
b.	Traditional neighborhood development's shall be limited to sites with a minimum of one hundred (100) acres.
c.	A minimum of twenty (20) percent of the TND development must encompass greenspace, recreational features, or approved hardscape pedestrian areas. 
d.	All structures shall be limited to a height of four (4) stories, except that commercial hotels, commercial office buildings, and mixed-use buildings with a minimum fifty (50) percent office space be allowed to exceed this height limit with approval of the fire chief and planning commission. 
e.	Uses of a C-2 zone and I-1 zone are not allowed.
f.	Radio transmission towers are not allowed.
g.	Automobile sales are not allowed.
h.	Auto service stations are not allowed.
i.	Motor vehicle repair shops are not allowed.
j.	Setbacks should be maintained in a manner consistent with applicable building code, public utility easement or public open space requirements to promote an attractive streetscape and pleasant pedestrian environment. 
(3)	Design standards. This section establishes design standards for development in TND districts. Good design in TND zones results in buildings and dwellings visually compatible with one another and adjacent neighborhoods, contributing to a district which is attractive, visually stimulating, active and safe. These qualities contribute to the creation of an environment which facilitates easy pedestrian movement and a rich mixture of uses. 
a.	Commercial entryways.
1.	All ground-floor tenant spaces with at least twenty-five (25) feet of frontage facing a public or private street shall have at least one (1) building entrance oriented to the adjacent street. 
2.	If a building has frontage on more than one (1) street, the building shall provide a main building entrance oriented to one (1) of the streets or a single entrance to the corner where the two (2) streets intersect. 
3.	Where one (1) single tenant has two hundred (200) feet or more of frontage on a public or private street, one (1) additional entrance shall be provided for each two hundred (200) feet of frontage on one (1) of the public or private streets. Freestanding banking institutions and restaurants located in the TND District are exempt from the provisions contained in this section and may locate the primary building entrance on any facade of the structure. 
b.	Residential entryways.
1.	Residential dwellings fronting on a public or private street shall have a main entrance to the dwelling opening onto the front of the dwelling at the ground floor level. Such an entrance shall open directly to the outside and shall not require passage through a garage to gain access to the doorway. 
2.	Ground floor single family attached and row/townhouse residential units fronting on a public or private street shall have separate entries directly from the major pedestrian route. Ground floor and upper story residential units in a multi-family building fronting on a public or private street may share one (1) or more entries accessible directly from the street. 
3.	Residential building facades over one hundred fifty (150) feet in length facing a street shall provide two (2) or more main building entrances. 
c.	Ground floor windows and building facade requirements.
1.	All development shall provide ground floor windows on the building facade facing and adjacent to a public street, or facing onto a park, plaza or other public outdoor space. 
2.	Darkly tinted windows and mirrored windows which block two-way visibility are prohibited as ground floor windows.
3.	On single family detached, single family attached, townhouse, and rowhouse structures, exterior walls facing a public street, public open space, pedestrian walkway and/or transit station shall have windows, display areas or doorways for at least twenty (20) percent of the ground level wall area, which is defined as the area up to the finished ceiling height of the fronting space or fifteen (15) feet above finished grade, whichever is less. 
(4)	Architectural design requirements. 
a.	All residential dwellings, of any type, constructed within any TND zone shall be constructed with exterior building materials and finishes of high quality to convey an impression of permanence and durability. 
b.	Materials such as, and including, masonry, stucco, stone, terra cotta, tile, cedar shake and shingles, beveled or ship-lap or other narrow-course horizontal boards or siding, authentic vertical board and batten siding, articulated architectural concrete masonry units (CMU), and similar durable architectural materials are allowed. 
c.	Materials such as, and including, T-111 siding, plain or plain painted plywood and strandboard sheets, concrete or cinder block, smooth surface concrete panels, corregated metals and similar quality and non-durable material are prohibited. 
d.	Commercial buildings and sites shall be organized to group the utilitarian functions away from the public view. Delivery and loading operations, HVAC equipment, trash compacting and collection, and other utility and service functions shall be incorporated into the overall design of the building(s) and the landscaping. The visual and acoustic impacts of these functions, along with all wall- or ground-mounted mechanical, electrical and communications equipment shall be out of view from adjacent properties and public streets, and screening materials and landscape screens shall be architecturally compatible with and not inferior to the principal materials of the building and primary landscaping. The visual and acoustic aspects of roof-mounted equipment, vents and chimneys shall be minimized by placing equipment behind parapets, within architectural screening, roof-top landscaping, or by using other aesthetically pleasing methods of screening and deadening the sound of such equipment. 
(5)	Location and design of off-street parking. Parking should be located and designed so as to not only facilities its major function but also to complement and encourage easy and safe pedestrian movement to, through and around the facility. The scale and orientation of parking areas shall be consistent with their purposes in supporting a mix of commercial and residential uses and shall be consistent with the pedestrian and transit-oriented community to which they contribute. 
a.	Except as expressly modified below, the parking design standards contained in section 22-9 shall apply. The following additional standards shall apply only within TND districts: 
1.	No surface parking or maneuvering area shall be located between the facing facade of an adjacent building (or a line extended from the plane thereof) and a public or private street. 
2.	Service docks and loading areas may be located between a building and public or private street when an anchor tenant requires the use of delivery vehicles with an overall length of forty (40) feet. 
3.	To create pedestrian interest, maneuvering areas, service docks, and loading areas shall be located interior to the site wherever practicable. Where locations of these facilities on the site exterior, adjacent to a street, driveway, or pedestrian route cannot be avoided, exterior building walls or screen walls for such facilities shall include decorative elements that provide visual (pedestrian) interest such as openings with decorative grates, artwork, and decorative tiles. Screening walls surrounding service docks and loading areas shall be a minimum of twelve (12) feet in height. Windows and display area are not required on walls surrounding service docks and loading areas. 
4.	Alley or other roadways shall be provided in residential and commercial areas to access off-street parking and service areas.
5.	An unobstructed means of ingress and egress shall be provided from each lot or parcel to a public street, alley or a city-approved private street or tract, either through private ownership or permanent easement over an improved private street, alley or driveway of sufficient width and structural cross-section to meet or exceed the standards for emergency vehicle approach to the use on said lot or parcel. 
6.	Except in residential areas, parking associated with new development shall be designed to the extent practicable to connect with auto parking areas on adjacent sites to eliminate the necessity of utilizing the street for parallel movements. 
7.	No garages shall load directly from the street.
(6)	Multiple uses required. At the completion of each phase of a traditional neighborhood development, a final occupancy permit will not be issued by the city until such time that a mixture of all uses have been completed in the subject phase in proportion to the uses shown in the approved site plan.
