and commercial uses such as retail, o ce and civic amenities that complement each other. Residential uses are
often located above commercial uses, but can be separate areas of residential use only with close proximity to
commercial uses. An interconnected street system is the basis for the transportation network. Buildings are
encouraged to be built close to the vehicular and pedestrian way to create a continuous active and vibrant
streetscape utilizing the architecture, landscaping, lighting, signage, and street furnishings.
Mixed Use Projects in the BMUD-NC, BMUD-W and GTMUD-MXD shall be reviewed and permitted in accordance
with section 10.02.15.
A minimum of 60 percent of all commercial uses within a mixed use project shall provide retail, o ce and/or
personal service uses to serve the needs of the subject project and surrounding residential neighborhoods.
A maximum of 25 percent of the residential units within a mixed use project shall be on gated roadways.
Residential uses shall be constructed concurrent with, or prior to, the construction of commercial uses so as to
insure actual development of a mixed use project, or otherwise in accordance with a development schedule
approved for the project and made a condition of the MUP approval .
MUPs shall provide connection to local streets , adjoining neighborhoods and adjacent developments , regardless
of land use types. A grid street pattern is preferred; however, modi cations may be approved, provided the
vehicular network provides interconnections between internal uses and external connections to adjoining
neighborhoods and land uses. The network shall fully accommodate pedestrian, bicycle, and transit.
The commercial component of a mixed use project may be located internal to the project or along the boundary; if
externally located, internal access roads and service access shall be provided so as not to promote strip commercial
development along external collector and arterial roadways .
Parking lots shall be dispersed throughout the project. No one parking lot shall provide more than 40 percent of the
required o - street parking. Parking garages shall have no restrictions on percentage of required parking that may
be accommodated. This requirement shall not apply to individual parcels less than 5 acres in size.
At least 30 percent of the gross area of mixed use projects shall be devoted to useable open space , as de ned in
section 4.02.01 B. In the case of any request to deviate from this requirement, a donation of land, cash, or other in-
kind contribution may be accepted by the CRA, where it has been demonstrated to su ciently mitigate for the
reduction of required on-site usable open space . This cash or in-kind contribution may be used to enhance the
public realm (public art, plaza, fountains, etc). This usable open space requirement shall not apply to individual
parcels less than 5 acres in size.
Outdoor Display and Sale of Merchandise.
No automatic food and drinking vending machines are permitted outside of any structure.
Newspaper vending machines will be limited to two machines per project site and shall be permanently a xed (not
portable).
Outdoor display and sale of merchandise, within front yards on improved properties, is permitted provided the
merchandise is limited to the sale of comparable merchandise sold on the premises.
Building Types and Architectural Standards
Purpose and Intent. The purpose of this section is to supplement the provisions of LDC section 5.05.08 by identifying and
providing design standards for the building types allowed within the Bayshore Gateway Triangle Redevelopment Area.
The standards are intended to attach the same importance to the overall building design as is placed on the use
contained therein, and to ensure that proposed development is consistent with the CRA's goals for building form,
character and quality. Buildings within the BMUD and GTMUD are expected to be added as long-term additions to the
architectural vibrancy of the community.
Applicability. Each proposed building shall be designed in compliance with the standards of this section for the
applicable building type, regardless of the underlying zoning district provisions. The uses permitted within the building
are determined by the underlying zoning district or overlay subdistrict in which it is located. All buildings shall meet the
design requirements set forth in LDC section 5.05.08 unless otherwise speci ed in this section.
General Architectural Standards.

Note: Outdoor café seating shall be exempt from parking calculations.
Adjustments to Parking Space Requirements: Developments which meet any of the following standards may be
exempted from the minimum parking requirements of this section.
Public parking facilities. The CRA can make parking on CRA owned property available to meet the minimum parking

a.
the parking allocation has been approved by the CRA as part of the MUP, site development or site improvement
plan process. The public parking facility must be located within one-half mile of the development . Once spaces are
allocated to a speci c property through the approval of the MUP, SDP or SIP, the applicant has one year to begin
utilizing the parking. If the spaces are not used within one year, and an extension is not granted by the CRA, the
spaces will be made available for reallocation and all development orders shall be revised accordingly.
O -site parking. O -site parking may be used in order to meet the minimum parking requirements, provided the
o -site parking is located no farther than 1,200 feet from the use it will serve. The location and design of the o -site
parking will be shown on the SDP or SIP and approved as part of the SDP or SIP review and approval process. The
required parking spaces will be committed by a recordable covenant, lease, or other agreement.
Shared parking. Shared parking is permitted for new development if the applicant establishes that the peak
parking demands for the new uses clearly occur at di erent times. A shared parking agreement must be recorded
by a recordable covenant, lease, or other agreement. Shared parking lots must be within 600 feet of each use and
may not be separated from the use by a street right-of-way or easement exceeding 60 feet in width.
On- street parking. Where on- street parking exists or is permitted, a development may count the spaces directly
along the site's frontage toward the minimum parking requirement, however the on- street parking spaces are
considered public spaces and are not for the exclusive use of the adjacent use.
Tree preservation. The minimum number of spaces required may be adjusted by the County Manager or designee
when it has been determined that the reduction is necessary to preserve a healthy tree or trees (with a 12 inch or
greater diameter at breast height) from being damaged or removed, and where the site plan provides for the
retention of said tree or trees.
Connectivity. Parking lots are encouraged to connect to adjacent lots through the use of a joint access easement .
If a joint access easement is provided for connectivity, then the minimum parking requirement for the use may be
reduced by 10 percent.
