That vision is one of pedestrian-oriented public streets,plazas,squares and riverfront walks,lined with mixed-use,pedestrian-oriented buildings. The scale and general character of new development is based in many ways on the best elements of Petaluma's heritage—the multi-story mixed-use shopfront buildings of the historic Downtown,the iconic agricultural buildings,and the rich variety of streets,riverfront wharves,plazas and parks of Petaluma's historic center. The vision is focused around the Petaluma River-the dominant open space of Central Petaluma—which is intended to enhance,and be enhanced by,the new neighborhoods along its edges. At its core,this vision is one of a very particular kind of place. A sense of place results only when the public realm—the streets and other public open spaces—and the private realm—the buildings that line the public spaces—are designed to connect to one another at the scale of the person on foot. The public spaces—in addition to providing circulation of people on foot,on bicycles and in cars—are the"living rooms",the gathering places,of the community. The shape,scale and character of these public spaces are defined by their design and detailing,and by the way that private buildings connect to their edges. The fine-grained coordination of the design of public and private elements,to be built in large and small increments over a period of many years,does not happen automatically,and it does not happen by simply reviewing and discussing each individual project as it is proposed. An overall framework and a systematic approach to the design of the components and the connections between them is required. The SmartCode© provides a system for ensuring that the design of the public realm and the design of private buildings are rigorously coordinated,and are focused on the pedestrian experience. It defines what is essentially a"kit of parts",with instructions,for building an urban district—a district based directly on the preferences of the community,as expressed through workshops and meetings. The focus of this technique is on the scale and character of the parts and how they connect to each other. The focus is not on the architectural styling of the parts,which is very flexible. This code defines an agreement between the community(the public)and property owners(the private). The community commits itself to building and maintaining high-quality,pedestrian-oriented streets,public parking facilities,squares, plazas,and riverwalks,while the property and business owners commit themselves to building high- quality buildings that face the public realm with facades scaled to the pedestrian,and orienting on-site parking and service functions to the backs of the buildings and the interiors of the blocks. Central Petaluma is envisioned to be a place where a wide range of residential,commercial and industrial uses can coexist in relative proximity to one another within a lively urban environment. (This is the type of place that Petaluma has over a century of experience in designing,building and managing in its historic Downtown,where the uses of individual buildings have changed many times during their long and useful life.) Livelier commercial uses can take advantage of the active environment of the ground floor street frontages,while residential and office uses can generally benefit from the quieter environment offered by upper floors.Through the appropriate design of the street frontages—where the buildings meets the street—a very wide range of use types can thrive on ground floor frontages. Accordingly,this document allows multi-story mixed-use buildings in most areas,in which residential uses are allowed on upper floors of most buildings,and a wide range of commercial enterprises are allowed on the ground floors of most buildings. The SmartCode© is designed to be used both as a guide for property owners and their designers-to allow them to understand from the outset the parameters that the community has set for development in Central Petaluma-and also as a framework and systematic checklist for the City's use as it plans its investment in capital projects and evaluates the design of proposed building projects. This will improve the quality of design proposals that the City receives,and the speed and quality of the design review process,and the value of the City's cumulative reinvestment in the public realm. Petaluma Station Area Master Plan 5 Intent Intent This document provides detailed regulations for development and new land uses within the Transect Zones,and describes how these regulations will be used as part of the City's development review process.These regulations are provided in the form of a"Smart Code," and are hereafter referred to as"this Code."This Code is intended to ensure that all new buildings are harmonious with each other and within the character of Petaluma.This Code is further intended to enable,encourage and qualify the implementation of the following policies: A. The Region 1. That the region shall retain its natural infrastructure and visual character derived from topography,woodlands,farmlands,riparian corridors and coastlines. 2. That growth strategies shall encourage infill and redevelopment. 3. That affordable housing shall be distributed throughout the region to match job opportunities and to avoid concentrations of poverty. 4. That transportation shall be planned and reserved in coordination with land use. 5. That green corridors shall be used to define and connect the urbanized areas. 6. That the region shall include a framework of transit,pedestrian,and bicycle systems that provide alternatives to the automobile. B. The Community 1. That neighborhoods and regional centers shall be compact, pedestrian-oriented,and mixed use. 2. That the size of neighborhoods reflect a five-minute walking distance for the edge to center(center meaning a railroad connecting transit stop or the existing downtown) 3. That ordinary activities of daily living shall occur within walking distance of most dwellings,allowing independence to those who do not drive. 4. That interconnected networks of thoroughfares that shall be designed to disperse traffic and reduce the length of automobile trips. 5. That a variety of thoroughfares shall be designed to serve the needs of the pedestrian, the cyclist,and the automobile equitably. 6. That within neighborhoods,a range of housing types and price levels shall be provided to accommodate diverse ages and incomes. 7. That appropriate building densities and land uses shall be provided within walking distance of transit stops. 8. That civic,institutional,and commercial activity shall be embedded in downtowns, not isolated in remote single-use complexes. 9. That schools shall be sized and located to enable children to walk or bicycle to them (safe routes to school). 10. That a range of Open Space including Parks,Squares,and playgrounds shall be distributed within neighborhoods and downtowns and provide publicly accessible places for informal social activity and recreation. 6 Petaluma Station Area Master Plan Intent C. The Block and the Building 1. That buildings and landscaping shall contribute to the physical definition of Thoroughfares as Civic places. 2. That development shall adequately accommodate automobiles while respecting the pedestrian and the spatial form of public areas. 3. That the design of streets and buildings shall reinforce safe environments,but not at the expense of accessibility. 4. That architecture and landscape design shall grow from local climate,topography, history,and building practice. 5. That buildings shall provide their inhabitants with a clear sense of geography and climate through energy efficient methods. 6. That civic buildings and public gathering places shall be provided as locations that reinforce community identity and support self-government. 7. That civic buildings shall be distinctive and appropriate to a role more important than the other buildings that constitute the fabric of the city. 8. That the preservation,renewal,and reuse of historic buildings shall be facilitated,to affirm the continuity and evolution of society. 9. That the harmonious and orderly evolution of urban areas shall be secured through form-based codes. 10. That new construction shall not degrade the aesthetic and civic character of the neighborhood. D. The Transect The Transect is an organizing principle that focuses first on the intended character and type of place and second on the mix of uses within.This differs from the framework found in conventional or Euclidean zoning in which use,rather than form,is the primary focus.Transect-based zone districts are used to regulate the preservation,evolution,and creation of walkable places. "The Rural-to-Urban Transect is a means for considering and organizing the human habitat in a continuum of intensity that ranges from the most rural condition to the most urban.It provides a standardized method for differentiating between the intentions for urban form in various areas using gradual transitions rather than harsh distinctions.The zones are primarily classified by the physical intensity of the built form,the relationship between nature and the built environment,and the complexity of uses within the zone." Form-Based Codes:A Guide to Planners,Urban Designers, Municipalities,and Developers,by Parolek,Parolek and Crawford 1. That the Transect Zone descriptions on Table 1 shall constitute the Intent of this Code with regard to the general character of each of these environments.

Code Applicability Section I . Code Applicability 1.10.010 -Applicability of Code Standards Proposed development,subdivisions,and new land uses within the Transect Zones shall comply with all applicable requirements of this Code,as follows. A. Zoning Map. The Zoning Map in Section 2 of this Code shows the zones that differentiate standards for building placement,design,and use;and identifies the specific parcels included within each zone. B. Building Function Standards. The Building Function Standards in Section 3 identify the land uses allowed by the City in each of the zones established by the Zoning Map. A parcel shall be occupied only by land uses identified as allowed within the applicable zone by Section 3 of this Code. C. Urban Standards. The Urban Standards in Section 4 regulate the aspects of each private building that affect the public realm. The standards vary according to the zone applied to each parcel by the Zoning Map. The Urban Standards regulate building placement and facade design,determine the number of required parking spaces,identify the types of civic spaces to be provided within the Transect Zones,and provide standards for landscaping. In certain cases,the Urban Standards also regulate how certain land use types must be operated to ensure their compatibility with adjacent uses. D. Thoroughfare Standards. The Thoroughfare Standards in Section 5 regulate the design of streets and other public ways within the Transect Zones,including both new thoroughfares and changes to existing thoroughfares. These standards include specifications and dimensions that define the type,character,and capacity of vehicle, cycling,and pedestrian ways. Compliance with the standards of Section 5 is required for vehicular ways,bikeways,sidewalks,planters,street trees,and street lights,where these improvements are required through the City approval of a subdivision or other development. E. Landscaping and Utility Standards. The Landscape and Utility Standards in Section 4.6 regulate the street trees,planters,and utilities within the Transect Zones. F. Parking Standards. The Parking Standards and Procedures in Section 6 regulate the design and location of required parking facilities. G. Historic Preservation Standards. Changes to historic structures shall comply with the standards in Section 7 of this Code. H. Design Review. All buildings and associated site improvements within the Central Petaluma Specific Plan boundaries are subject to design review by the Planning Commission.Refer to the Architectural Guidelines(Appendix"B"of the Central Petaluma Specific Plan)for example illustrations and information on architectural character in the Specific Plan area.

A I T4 building that occupies one side of the Lot with the Setback to the other side.A shallow Frontage Setback defines a more urban condition.If the adjacent building is similar with a blank side wall, the yard can be quite private.This type permits systematic climatic orientation in response to the 1. sun or the breeze.If a Sideyard House abuts a neighboring Sideyard House,the type is known .---1/1/11 4 as a twin or double House.Energy costs,and sometimes noise,are reduced by sharing a party i wall in this Disposition. c.Rearyard:Specific Types-Townhouse, Rowhouse,Live-Work unit,loft building, Apartment T4 House,Mixed Use Block,Flex Building,perimeter Block.Abuilding that occupies the full Frontage, leaving the rear of the Lot as the sole yard.This is a very urban type as the continuous Facade steadily defines the public Thoroughfare.The rear Elevations may be articulated for functional ti purposes.In its Residential form,this type is the Rowhouse.For its Commercial form,the rear ————— T6 yard can accommodate substantial parking. i d.Courtyard:Specific Types-patio House.A building that occupies the boundaries of its Lot while T5 internally defining one or more private patios.This is the most urban of types,as it is able to shield the private realm from all sides while strongly defining the public Thoroughfare.Because of its T6 ability to accommodate incompatible activities,masking them from all sides,it is recommended for workshops,Lodging and schools.The high security provided by the continuous enclosure is useful for crime-prone areas. e.Specialized: A building that is not subject to categorization.Buildings dedicated to SD manufacturing and transportation are often distorted by the trajectories of machinery. Civic buildings,which may express the aspirations of institutions,may be included. 0 Petaluma Station Area Master Plan 23 Section 4. Urban Standards 4.40 - Private Frontage Standards 4.40.010 - Purpose This section sets forth the standards applicable to the development of private frontages. Private frontages are the components of a building that provide an important transition and interface between the public realm (street and sidewalk) and the private realm(yard or building).These standards supplement the standards for each zone that the frontage types are allowed within.For each private frontage type,a description,a statement of the type's intent, and design standards are provided.These standards are intended to ensure development that reinforces the highly-valued existing character and scale of Petaluma's neighborhoods and downtown. 4.40.020 -Applicability The street facing facades of each proposed building shall be designed as one of the building frontage types allowed by Section 4.10(Urban Standards Table).Allowed frontage types shall be designed in compliance with the following standards.The standards established in this section shall apply to all private frontages within the transect zones,and shall be considered in combination with the standards found within this Code. 4.40.030 - Private Frontages Overview Table A(Private Frontages Overview)provides an overview of the allowed private frontage types. 24 Petaluma Station Area Master Plan Section 4.

The standards established in this Chapter provide the transect zones with a diverse palette of parks and other publicly accessible civic spaces,publicly or privately owned, that are essential components of walkable urban environments. B. There are 11 different civic space types defined in Table A(Civic Space Type Standards). Two of the civic space types,Playgrounds and Community Gardens,may be incorporated into any of the other nine types or may stand alone. C. In Table A(Civic Space Type Standards),the illustration and description of each civic space type are illustrative in nature and not regulatory. D. The service area,size,frontage and disposition of elements standards(defined below and on the following page)of each civic space types are regulatory. 1.

Street trees,by virtue of a narrow tree trunk,provide transparency at the pedestrian's eye level,permitting a visual grasp of extensive areas of a city. B. The type,spacing,structure and pattern of street trees create a discrete rhythm that results from the arrangement of trees,expressing the particular site. C. Street trees create a smaller scale of space with their canopies that are sympathetic to the movement and perception of pedestrians. D. The diversity of individual trees is subordinated to the repetitive pattern of the whole, which unifies the individual parts into a single whole. E. Street trees,when formed from a single tree species,create homogeneity of texture, pattern,light and shade,resulting in a collective impact that is more important than the individual trees. F. The ground surface is visually unobstructed to permit a clear expression of trees rising out of the ground. 4.60.030 - Planting Guidelines Wherever possible,continue established street tree planting in terms of tree species. 4.60.040 - StreetTree Planting Standards A. Planting patterns. Street trees shall be planted per Section 5.10.060(Public Frontages). B. Planting details. Street trees shall be planted per City of Petaluma Street Tree Planting Detail,page 101,with the addition of structural soil(see below). Install root barriers as required per City of Petaluma Root Barrier Standard Detail Number 102. C. Soil. Placement of structural soil 8'minimum length along the street,centered on street tree, 6'minimum wide x 24"minimum deep is required as a planting medium under sidewalks for street trees in areas where new sidewalks are to be constructed. D. Mulch. Mulch shall be walk-on mulch. E. Irrigation. Irrigation shall be provided for street trees in areas where new sidewalks are to be constructed. "Bladder"type irrigation maybe provided by the City of Petaluma to existing sidewalk areas on a case by case basis. Petaluma Station Area Master Plan 53 Section 4. Urban Standards 4.60.050 - Underground Utility Requirements All electric and telephone facilities,fire alarm conduits,street lighting wiring,cable television and other wiring conduits,and similar facilities shall be placed underground by the developer. Wireless telecommunications facilities are instead subject to the Zoning Ordinance. The Council may grant a modification,including a complete waiver of this undergrounding requirement,after considering: A. The purposes and nature of the proposed development; B. The extent to which utilities are undergrounded in the site vicinity;and C. Potential adverse effects on the image of the City and the aesthetics of the site vicinity if the utilities are not undergrounded. 54 Petaluma Station Area Master Plan Section 4. Urban Standards 4.70 - Standards for Specific Land Uses 4.70.010 Applicability A. Where allowed by Section 2 (the Zoning Map),and Section 3 (Building Function Standards),the land uses and activities covered by Sections 4.80.020 through 4.80.030 shall comply with the requirements applicable to the specific use,in addition to all other applicable provisions of this Code. B. Each land use covered by this Section shall also obtain any required planning permit or other City approval required by Section 3 of this Code. C. In the event of any conflict between the requirements of this Section and those of Section 4 (Urban Standards),the requirements of this Chapter shall control. 4.70.020 Live/Work and Work/Live Units A. Purpose.This Section provides standards for the development of new live/work and work/live units and for the reuse of existing commercial and industrial structures to accommodate live/work or work/live opportunities.Live/work and work/live units are intended,but not required to be occupied by business operators who live in the same structure that contains the commercial activity or industry. 1. A live/work unit refers to a space in which the predominant use is residential,and commercial activity is a secondary use.Live/work being predominantly live-oriented, the quiet enjoyment expectations of the neighbors in the building or adjacent buildings take precedence over work needs of the unit in question.Live/work is less likely to accommodate walk-in trade due to the intensive impact of customers upon what is intended primarily as a residence. 2. A work/live unit refers to a space in which the commercial activities are the predominant use and the residential component is a secondary use. Work/live being a predominantly work-oriented,more intense occupancy,is more likely to accommodate greater noise generation,mechanical,musical,or otherwise.Work/live is more likely to accommodate a walk-in trade. B. Application requirements.In addition to the information and materials required for a Minor Use Permit(MUP)or Conditional Use Permit(CUP) application by the Implementing Zoning Ordinance,a CUP application for a live/work or work/live as the reuse of existing commercial or industrial structures unit shall include a Phase I Environmental Assessment for the site,including an expanded site investigation to determine whether lead based paint and asbestos hazards exist.The purpose of this requirement is to assess whether there are any hazardous or toxic materials on the site that could pose a health risk to residents.If the Phase I assessment shows potential health risks,a Phase 2 Environmental Assessment shall be prepared and submitted to determine if remediation may be required. C. Limitations on use.The non-residential component of a live/work or work/live project shall be a use allowed within the applicable zone by Section 3.A live/work or work/live unit shall not be established or used in conjunction with any of the following activities: 1. Adult businesses; Petaluma Station Area Master Plan 55 Section 4. Urban Standards 2. Vehicle maintenance or repair(e.g.,body or mechanical work,including boats and recreational vehicles),vehicle detailing and painting,upholstery,etc.); 3. No occupancy classified as an H occupancy by the California Building Standards Code shall be allowed. 4. Welding,machining,or any open flame work;and 5. Any other activity or use,as determined by the Director to not be compatible with residential activities and/or to have the possibility of affecting the health or safety of live/work or work/live unit residents,because of the potential for the use to create dust,glare,heat,noise,noxious gasses,odor,smoke,traffic,vibration or other impacts,or would be hazardous because of materials,processes,products,or wastes. D. Design standards. 1. Floor area requirements.The net total floor area of a live/work or work/live space shall be 3,000 square feet maximum.Separation and access.Each live/work or work/ live unit shall be separated from other live/work or work/live units or other uses in the structure.Access to each live/work or work/live unit shall be provided from shopfronts,directly from the street from common access areas,corridors,or halls; and the access to each unit shall be clearly separate from other live/work or work/live units or other uses within the structure. 2. Facilities to accommodate commercial or industrial activities.A live/work or work/live unit shall be designed to accommodate commercial or industrial uses as evidenced by the provision of ventilation,interior storage,flooring,and other physical improvements of the type commonly found in exclusively commercial or industrial facilities used for the same work activity. 3. Building and fire code compliance.Any building which contains a live/work or work/live occupancy shall comply with the latest edition of the CBC and applicable building and life safety policies for such occupancies. E. Operating requirements. 1. Notice to occupants.The owner or developer of any building containing work/live units shall provide written notice to all occupants and users that the surrounding area may be subject to levels of noise,dust,fumes,or other effects associated with commercial and industrial uses at higher levels than would be expected in residential areas.State and Federal health regulations notwithstanding,noise and other standards shall be those applicable to commercial or industrial properties in the applicable zone. 2. Non-resident employees.Up to two persons who do not reside in the live/work or work/live unit may work in the unit unless this employment is prohibited or limited by the Minor Use Permit or Conditional Use Permit in zones that require such use permits.The employment of three or more persons who do not reside in the live/ work or work/live unit may be permitted subject to Minor Use Permit or Conditional Use Permit approval,based on additional findings that the employment will not adversely affect traffic and parking conditions in the site vicinity.The employment of any persons who do not reside in the live/work or work/live unit shall comply with all applicable Building Code requirements 3. Client and customer visits.Client and customer visits to live/work or work/live units are permitted subject to any applicable conditions of the Minor Use Permit or Conditional Use Permit if applicable to ensure compatibility with adjacent commercial or industrial uses,or adjacent residentially-zoned areas 56 Petaluma Station Area Master Plan Section 4. Urban Standards F. Required findings.In addition to the findings required for zones where a live/work or work/live unit requires a Minor Use Permit or Conditional Use Permit,its approval shall require that the review authority first make all of the following findings,in addition to the findings required for a MUP or CUP approval: 1. The proposed use of each live/work or work/live unit is a bona fide commercial or industrial activity consistent with Subsection C. (Limitations on use). 2. The establishment of live/work or work/live units will not conflict with nor inhibit permitted industrial or commercial uses in the area where the project is proposed; 3. The building containing live/work units and each live/work unit within the building has been designed to ensure that they will function predominantly as residential uses with incidental work spaces.;and 4. The building containing work/live units and each work/live unit within the building has been designed to ensure that they will function predominantly as work spaces with incidental residential accommodations in compliance with applicable regulations; 4.70.030 Mixed-Use Projects A mixed-use project shall comply with the following requirements. A. Intent.A mixed-use project shall be intended to: 1. Provide a blend of commercial space and residential units; 2. Minimize the need for automobiles and promote transit use; 3. Concentrate high density residential dwellings and commercial operations in the downtown or other urban/commercial districts; 4. Provide a diverse range of housing types,unit sizes,and price points within the downtown or other urban/commercial districts; 5. Promote continued activity in the evening and on weekends;and 6. Increase the economic vitality of the neighborhood. B. Design objectives.A mixed-use project shall be designed to: 1. Provide shopfronts along street frontages to maintain a pedestrian orientation at the street level.Residential developments,including live/work,shall be designed such that ground floor units may be converted to retail/commercial shopfronts and to establish a clear,functional design relationship with the street front. 2. Provide for internal compatibility between the different uses within the project; 3. Minimize the effects of any exterior noise,odors,glare,vehicular and pedestrian traffic,and other potentially significant impacts on the occupants of the residential portions of the project; 4. Include specific design features to minimize the potential impacts of the mixed-use project on adjacent properties; 5. Ensure that the residential units are of a residential character,and with appropriate privacy; Petaluma Station Area Master Plan 57 Section 4. Urban Standards 6. Be compatible with and enhance the adjacent and surrounding residential neighborhood in terms of site planning,scale,building design,color,exterior materials,roof styles,lighting,landscaping,and signage. C. Location of residential uses.In the T5 and T6 Transect Zones.A mixed-use project that provides commercial and/or office space on the ground floor with residential units above (vertical mix)is encouraged over a project that provides commercial structures on the front portion of the lot with residential uses placed at the rear of the lot(horizontal mix). D. Loading areas.Commercial loading areas shall be located to minimize their impact on residential units. E. Refuse and recycling areas.Areas for the collection and storage of refuse and recyclable materials also shall be located on the site in locations that are convenient for both the residential and nonresidential uses. F. Lighting.Lighting for the commercial uses shall be appropriately shielded to minimize the impact on residential units. G. Noise.All residential units shall be designed to minimize adverse impacts from non- residential project noise,in compliance with the City's Noise Ordinance. H. Non-residential hours of operation.Where a Minor Use Permit or Conditional Use Permit is required,the review authority may restrict the hours of operation of non- residential uses within a mixed-use project to mitigate adverse impacts on residential uses. 4.70.040 - Building Material Guidelines All buildings should be designed and built to comply with the following guidelines: A. Building materials.Natural building materials that age gracefully are recommended. Synthetic materials,such as hardboard or cementitious siding,are also allowed if they faithfully simulate the natural material and have equal or better weathering characteristics. B. Vinyl materials.Vinyl windows,plastic gutters,siding,shutters or similar material should not be used in any renovation or adaptive reuse of an historic building and are discouraged in any new building. C. Divided light windows.True divided light windows or simulated divided lights should be used in new construction and remodeling.Windows with the grids between the glass are discouraged. D. CALGreen Tier 1.Building shall meet the requirements of CALGreen Tier 1. 58 Petaluma Station Area Master Plan Section 4. Urban Standards 4.70.050 - River Dependent and Agricultural Support Industrial Notification River dependent and agricultural support industrial uses within the Central Petaluma Specific Plan area are typically 24-hour operations that frequently generate noise,dust,odors and light that may not be compatible with other uses in the immediate vicinity.In order to support these industries as an important contributor to the local economy,the following notification language shall be required as a condition of approval of any residential or commercial use where,in the opinion of the reviewing authority,the potential for concerns over compatibility may arise: A. Notification Requirement.For each parcel subject to the requirement for notification, the developer/applicant shall record the following notice in the Official Records of Sonoma County,and shall include the following notice in all lease or rental agreements concerning any portion of such property: "This document shall serve as notification that you have purchased property or you are leasing or renting premises in an area where river-dependent and/or agricultural support industrial operations are located which may cause off-site effects including without limitation,noise,dust,fumes,smoke,light,and odors, and which may operate at any time of night or day.The nature and extent of such operations and their effects may vary in response to fluctuations in economic circumstances,business cycles,weather and tidal conditions and other conditions.This statement is notification that these off-site effects are a component of the industrial operations in the Central Petaluma Specific Plan area of the City of Petaluma,and you should be fully aware of this at the time of purchase, lease or rental." Petaluma Station Area Master Plan 59 Section 4. Urban Standards 4.80 - Building Type Standards 4.80.010 Purpose This section sets forth the standards applicable to the development of each building type. These standards supplement the standards for each zone that the building types are allowed within.These standards are intended to ensure development that reinforces the highly-valued existing character and scale of Petaluma's neighborhoods and downtown. 4.80.020 Applicability A. The standards established in this section shall apply to all proposed development within the transect zones,and shall be considered in combination with the standards found within this Code. B. The standards set forth in this section may be used in non-transect zones as guidelines. 4.80.030 Building Types Overview A. This section provides an overview of the allowed building types.The names of the building types are not intended to limit uses within a building type.For example,a single-unit house may have non-residential uses within it,such as a restaurant or office. B. The Lot Size Standards for each building type designate the range of lot sizes that the given building type is allowed to be built on. If the lot is smaller or larger than the allowed lot size,a different building type must be selected. 60 Petaluma Station Area Master Plan Section 4.

Thoroughfare Standards 5.10.010 Applicability The design and construction of a new or reconstructed street or alley shall comply with the standards of this Section applicable to the street type or alley identified on the Thoroughfare Regulating Plans. 5.10.020 Street Improvement Requirements Each approved subdivision or other development shall provide for the"fair share" construction on the site of all portions of streets shown on the Thoroughfare Regulating Plans with required alignments.The relocation of a required street alignment maybe allowed through the review of a specific subdivision or parcel development proposal,provided that the alternative alignment and proposed development shall: A. Comply with all the standards of this code applicable to the original street alignment (for example,urban standards,architectural standards,landscape standards,and the thoroughfare standards);and B. The alternative alignment maintains connections with all other streets that intersected the subject street in its original alignment. C. The alternate alignment meets the block perimeter requirements in Section 4.10(Urban Standards Table). D. An alternative alignment to the layout shown on the Thoroughfare Regulating Plan may be approved by the decision making body as part of a future subdivision or other development if the alternative is found to be a superior layout and maintains consistency with the intent and overall circulation objectives for all modes of transportation. Petaluma Station Area Master Plan 113 Section 5. Thoroughfare Standards 5.10.030 Thoroughfare Design A. Thoroughfares are intended for use by vehicular and pedestrian traffic and to provide access to lots and open spaces. B. Thoroughfares shall generally consist of vehicular lanes and public frontages. C. Thoroughfares shall be designed in context with the urban form and general intention of the transect zones through which they pass. 1. Within the more urban transect zones (T3 through T6)pedestrian comfort shall be a primary consideration of the thoroughfare design.Design conflict between vehicular and pedestrian movement generally shall be decided in favor of the pedestrian. 2. Within the most rural transect zones(T1 and T2)pedestrian comfort shall be a secondary consideration of the thoroughfare design.Design conflict between vehicular and pedestrian movement generally shall be decided in favor of the vehicle.. D. Thoroughfares shall be designed to accommodate the types of vehicles expected to use each thoroughfare on a daily basis.Occasionally,large vehicles are expected on all thoroughfares.All thoroughfares shall allow these vehicles to safely pass without major difficulty.It is expected that large vehicles may encroach on the opposing lane when making turning movements. E. Additional Design Considerations.Other factors that may need to be considered in the application of thoroughfare assemblies in transect zones include the following: 1. Topography.Thoroughfares that traverse steep slopes may need to incorporate additional design consideration for such elements as drainage facilities,additional width for bicycle lanes on the uphill side of the thoroughfare,etc. 2. Truck Access.Thoroughfares that provide access to high volumes of large trucks may need additional design considerations to mitigate potential negative effects on walkability. 3. Bus Service.Thoroughfares that will serve as public transit or school bus routes may need additional design considerations,including,but not limited to,the location of bus stops. 4. Fire/Emergency Access.Additional design considerations may be needed to accommodate Fire/Emergency Access,including,but not limited to,the location of rolled curbs and bulb-outs to accommodate fire truck outriggers. F. All lane dimensions shall be measured to the face of the curb.Where no curb and gutter is provided,the lane dimension shall be to the edge of the pavement.For Yield movement types,lane dimensions assume two-way traffic and are for a single lane accommodating two-way traffic. G. Shared lanes with sharrow markings on the travel lanes or a bicycle boulevard,a road shared by bicycles and vehicles,are allowed and may be required on streets with a design speed of 25 mph or less. 114 Petaluma Station Area Master Plan Section 5. Thoroughfare Standards 5.10.040 Movement Types and Design Speed Movement types are intended to assist in the selection of the appropriate thoroughfare design for the necessary level of pedestrian and bicyclist safety and comfort at any given location.Design speed is the primary determinant of movement type. Following is a list of movement types: A. Yield.Drivers must proceed slowly,with extreme care,and must yield to approaching traffic when vehicles are parked on both sides of the thoroughfare creating essentially one through lane.A Yield Thoroughfare is the functional equivalent of traffic calming. In addition to Yield movement use on normal thoroughfares,this movement is used for Alleys and Rear Lanes.For these applications,the primary purpose is access to rear loaded driveways/access for residential and commercial property.The 12'travel lane for Rear Lanes can be configured for one-way or two-way operation.When used for two way travel,parking is required on both sides of street in order to facilitate the Yield Movement Type and drivers exiting garages or driveways will have to yield to those vehicles occupying the lane therefore the number of properties connected to the Rear Lane should be considered.Parking in Alleys and Rear Lanes should only occur in driveways or parking structures to allow access for trash collection,service trucks and emergency access.Design speed is less than 20 mph. B. Slow.Drivers can proceed carefully with an occasional stop to allow a pedestrian to cross or another car to park.The character of the thoroughfare should make drivers uncomfortable exceeding the design speed due to the presence of parked cars,sense of enclosure from buildings and street trees,tight turning radii,and other design elements. Design speed is 25 mph. C. Low.Drivers can generally expect to travel without delay at the appropriate design speed. Thoroughfare design supports safe pedestrian movement at the higher design speed.This movement type is appropriate for thoroughfares designed to traverse longer distances or connect to higher intensity locations.Design speed is 30-35 mph. D. Suburban.This is a conventional thoroughfare design in which drivers can expect a separation of modes,(i.e.,bike lanes,walking paths and roads) allowing automobiles to travel unimpeded by pedestrians or walkability concerns.This movement type is rarely used in T3 through T6 transect zones,but may be needed when a thoroughfare crosses through Ti or T2 transect zones.Design speed may be above 35 mph. The design criteria for Yield,Slow,and Low Thoroughfares shall be commensurate with local thoroughfares.Design speeds higher than 35 mph shall not be used in areas intended to support moderate or high levels of pedestrian or bicycle activity due to concerns with safety and comfort. Petaluma Station Area Master Plan 115 Section 5. Thoroughfare Standards 5.10.050 Intersections A. Street design of narrow streets and compact intersections requires designers to pay close attention to the operational needs of transit,fire and rescue,waste collection and delivery trucks.For this reason,early coordination with transit,fire and rescue,waste collection and other stakeholder groups is essential. B. More regular encroachment of turning vehicles into opposing lanes will occur at compact intersections.Therefore,frequency of access,traffic volumes and the speeds on intersecting streets at those intersections must be considered when designing intersections.For fire and rescue,determination of the importance of that street for community access should be determined,e.g.primary or secondary access. C. The designer should use turning templates or software to evaluate intersections to ensure adequate operation of vehicles can occur.Location of on street parking around intersections should be evaluated during this analysis to identify potential conflicts between turning vehicles and on street parking.Bike lanes and on-street parking will increase the effective curb return radius,when curb extensions are not employed,by providing more room for the wheel tracking of turning vehicles. D. The following table provide the allowed curb radius range by movement type and speed. The dimensions require the provision of an effective curb radius and/or mountable curbs that meet the needs of fire and emergency access.

General to All Transect Zones 1. The public frontage is the area between the curb of the vehicular lanes and the Property Line/ROW.The public frontage contributes to the character of the transect zone,and includes the types of sidewalk,curb,planter,and street trees. 2. Public frontages shall be designed and allocated within transect zones as shown in Table 5.10.060.A-B 3. Within the public frontages,the prescribed types of public planting and public lighting shall be as shown in Tables 5.10.060.0-D.The spacing of the public planting may be adjusted with the approval of the Director to accommodate specific site conditions. B. Specific To Transect Zones Tl,T2,T3 1. The public frontage shall include trees of various species,naturalistically clustered,as well as understory. 2. The introduced landscape shall consist primarily of native species requiring minimal irrigation,fertilization and maintenance.Lawn shall be permitted only with approval by the Director. C. Specific To Transect Zones T4,T5,T6 1. The introduced landscape shall consist primarily of durable species tolerant of soil compaction. D. Specific To Transect Zones T4 1. The public frontage shall include trees planted in a regularly-spaced allee pattern of single or alternated species with shade canopies of a height that,at maturity,clears at least one Story. E. Specific To Transect Zones T5,T6 1. The public frontage shall include trees planted in a regularly-spaced allee pattern of single species with shade canopies of a height that,at maturity,clears at least one Story.At retail frontages,the spacing of the trees may be irregular,to avoid visually obscuring the shopfronts. 2. Streets with a Right-of-Way width of 40 feet or less shall be exempt from the tree requirement. F.

A. Required findings. The Historic and Cultural Preservation Committee shall approve a COA for the demolition of a cultural resource only in conjunction with the concurrent 166 Petaluma Station Area Master Plan Section 7. Historic Resource Conservation & Preservation approval of a proposed replacement project,and only after first making all of the following findings. 1. 1. The cultural resource cannot be remodeled,rehabilitated or re-used in a manner that would allow a reasonable use; 2. 2. Denial of the application will diminish the value of the subject property so as to leave substantially no value;and 3. 3. The cultural resource cannot be remodeled,rehabilitated,or re-used in a manner that would allow a reasonable rate of return. B. Justifiable hardships. Personal,family or financial difficulties,loss of prospective profits and Building Code violations shall not justify the issuance of a COA. C. Economic hardship. Demolition not in compliance with the findings required by Subsection A may be approved only in cases of economic hardship. Economic hardship is defined as a substantial cost to the property owner that is patently unreasonable in comparison to the benefit conferred to the community should the owner be limited to following the guidelines for preserving or protecting the property.In order to approve demolition on the basis of economic hardship,the Historic and Cultural Preservation Committee may require that some or all of the following findings are made: 1. Disapproval would substantially diminish the value of the property; 2. The sale or rental of the property is impractical when compared to the cost of holding the property for uses allowed in the subject zoning district; 3. An adaptive reuse study has been conducted and found that utilization of the property for lawful purposes is prohibited or impractical; 4. Disapproval would unreasonably damage the owner of the property in comparison to the benefit conferred on the community; 5. All means involving City sponsored incentives(e.g.,amendments to this Code and/ or the Zoning Ordinance,Building Code modifications,financial assistance,and/or grants)have been explored to relieve possible economic hardship; 6. Without approval of the proposed construction,demolition,exterior alteration, remodeling,or removal,the reasonable use of or return from a designated landmark or property within an historic district will be denied a property owner;and 7. In the case of a proposed demolition,the Director shall make an additional finding that the designated landmark cannot be remodeled or rehabilitated in a manner that would allow a reasonable use of or return from the property to the owners. E. Effect of demolition. If approval of a COA will result in the demolition of a cultural resource,the applicant shall be required to memorialize the resource proposed for demolition in compliance with the standards of the Historic American Building Survey(HABS). The documentation may include an archaeological survey,floor plans, measured drawings,photographs,or other documentation specified by the Historic and Cultural Preservation Committee. When appropriate,the Historic and Cultural Preservation Committee may require that a memorialization of the resource be incorporated into the proposed redevelopment of the site including the following: 1. Book or pamphlet; 2. Photographic display; Petaluma Station Area Master Plan 167 Section 7. Historic Resource Conservation & Preservation 3. Small museum or exhibit; 4.

Purpose. The rehabilitation incentives provided by this Section are intended to encourage the maintenance,preservation,and rehabilitation of cultural resources in the City,recognizing that maintaining and rehabilitating a cultural resource places increased burdens on the affected property owner. These rehabilitation incentives are intended to reduce those burdens so that property owners will be encouraged to invest in maintaining the City's cultural resources. B. Applicability. Upon designation of a structure or improvement as a designated cultural resource,the property owner may apply to the Council for aid and assistance in rehabilitating the resource. The application for rehabilitation incentives is considered the necessary planning permit;the applicant need not submit additional applications for other permits required by this Code or the Zoning Ordinance,but shall comply with any City requirements for a Building Permit,Grading Permit,etc. C. Types of incentives allowed. The Council may grant any or all of the following rehabilitation incentives 1. Adaptive reuse,including the approval of a change to a land use that is not otherwise allowed in the zone,but which is permitted in other zones; 2. Mills Act Agreements; 3. Permit fee waivers;and/or 4. Reduction and/or substantial modification in the development standards of this Code and/or the Zoning Ordinance. D. Application content. Applications shall include the information required by the Director. E. Review and approval of rehabilitation incentives. 1. Hearing and action. The Historic and Cultural Preservation Committee shall hold a public hearing to determine the eligibility of a property for rehabilitation incentives and shall,by resolution,approve or deny any incentives. The action of the Historic and Cultural Preservation Committee on a Mills Act agreement shall be a recommendation to the Council;the Council has final approval authority in Mills Act decisions. Public notice for the hearing shall comply with State law. 168 Petaluma Station Area Master Plan Section 7. Historic Resource Conservation & Preservation 2. Required findings for approval. The Historic and Cultural Preservation Committee may recommend or grant rehabilitation incentives,only after first making all of the following findings: a. Findings for all incentives. (1) Each incentive to be granted serves to compensate the property owner for the increased burden,in terms of maintenance and expense,that rehabilitation would entail; (2) No approved incentive would impair the aesthetic,architectural,or historic integrity of the resource;and (3) No proposed incentive would be detrimental to the public health,safety,or general welfare. b. Findings for adaptive reuse. In addition to the above findings,the Historic and Cultural Preservation Committee shall make the following findings for the approval of adaptive reuse: (1) The change of use would occupy no more floor area than the original use; (2) The proposed use would not significantly impair the physical character of the area in which it is located;and (3) The change of use would result in substantial restoration of the significant and architectural features or exterior architectural appearance of the resource,and/or will result in a maintenance plan that will ensure the upkeep and continued maintenance of the resource over the expected life of the project. 3. Conditions of approval. In approving rehabilitation incentives,the Historic and Cultural Preservation Committee may impose any conditions of approval deemed necessary to ensure compatibility between the new use and the surrounding area. 7.10.090 - Duty to Maintain and Repair The owner,occupant,or other person in actual charge of a cultural resource shall keep in good repair all of the exterior portions of the improvement,structure,and all interior portions thereof whose maintenance is necessary to prevent deterioration and decay of any exterior architectural feature and any other specifically designated features of the property. If periodic maintenance and upkeep is not done,and the resource falls into disrepair,the fact that it is in disrepair may not be used as justification for demolition or any other alteration which would cause adverse effect as defined in this Part. 7.10.100 - Unsafe or Dangerous Condition In the case of damage to a structure that is the result of an isolated incident,the Director may approve a Certificate of Appropriateness for a structure for which there is a threat of imminent hazard as determined by the Building Official,without public notice. In the case of widespread damage to structures throughout the City(as in the case of an earthquake), the Director shall stay all notices to demolish designated or potential cultural resources, including all structures in designated or potential districts, until a structural engineer with Petaluma Station Area Master Plan 169 Section 7. Historic Resource Conservation & Preservation expertise in the restoration of historic structures has evaluated the nature and extent of the damage to each structure,and recommended steps to stabilize each structure. The City shall stabilize or isolate damaged structures to permit persons with appropriate expertise to further evaluate the damage. In cases where a structural engineer with expertise in the restoration of historic structures has determined that the building cannot be stabilized,then the Director may issue a Certificate of Appropriateness for the demolition of one or more structures. 170 Petaluma Station Area Master Plan Section 8.

Glossary Thoroughfare. An urban element that provides the major part of the public open space as well as moving lanes for vehicles. A thoroughfare is endowed with two attributes: capacity and character. Capacity is the number of vehicles that can move safely through a segment of a thoroughfare within a given time period. It is physically manifested by the number of lanes and their width,by the centerline radius,the curb radius,and the super elevation of the pavement. Character is the suitability of a thoroughfare as a setting for pedestrian activities and as a location for a variety of building types. Character is physically manifested by the associated frontage types as determined by the location within the Transect. Townhouse.See Section 4.80(Building Type Standards). Transect. A system of classification deploying the conceptual range rural-to-urban to arrange in useful order the typical elements of urbanism. The transect technique is derived from ecological analysis where it is applied to present the sequence of natural habitat from,for example,shore-dune-upland or wetland-woodland-prairie. It is a natural ordering system for urbanism,as every urban element easily finds a place within its continuum. For example,a street is more urban than a road,a curb more urban than a Swale,a brick wall more urban than a wooden one,an allee of trees more urban than a cluster. This gradient when rationalized and subdivided,becomes the urban Transect, the basis of the common zoning system in this Code.
