Old Elm Village
1.0 INTRODUCTION
PUD Development Standards
Burbank Housing: Development Corporation has developed Old, Elm Village as a richly textured
neighborhood for families and' their children, :if any. The design involves homes close to one
another with human scale streets' in :a classic, village pattern seen in many places around the
world, but .adapted to modern. needs here and now. Homes are' two-story duplex style. or flats
above neighborhood retail. Care has been taken to; create a complex, graceful, interesting and
harmonious whole.
Benefits include a pedestrian friendly environment, "defensible" and interesting places for
children to play where they can be watched over by adults, and a ,setting which supports the
development of old=time neighborhood community. The :design goal has been to provide high
density affordable housing for Petaluma, while still providing; needed privacy; individuality, and
good design: It is in pursuit of this design goal that the following Design Standards are
established.
"Yard" herein refers to any duplex unit and its ,front yard out to fence., or wall, walkway, parking,
or other common space,. plus fenced side or rear yards associated with that unit. There is,no yard
associated with the stacked flats above, retail.
'These Standards shall apply to `the development, maintenance, and ongoing operation of the
project. Development of the project shall conform to plans approved by the City Council and.,the
.Site Plan and- Architectural Review Committee (SPARC), except as may be modified by
:provisions of these standards.
1.1 Overriding Documents .
In the event of a conflict between the standards of the Petaluma Zoning Ordinance and -
these Development Standards, the more restrictive standard shall apply. Where the Old
Elm Village Development Standards are silent, the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance
shall apply.
2.0 ARCHITECTURAL CONTROL
Because Old Elm Village is planned to be a rental community, architectural control rests with the
property owner, subject to the limitations set for in these. Development Standards on file with the
City of Petaluma, as' they are, interpreted by the Planning Director..
