The city s varied residential districts evolved and grew over time, with each neighborhood expressing the distinct character and personality of the historic period which shaped it. It is important for the longterm economic strength of the city that the personality of each neighborhood be maintained, and not lost in the slow erosion of incremental changes. To achieve this, the city should be vigilant in the consideration of neighborhood context when considering changes, particularly in the older, central portions of the city. Many would agree that a small or insignificant variation on one property would have little effect on the overall neighborhood character. However, the city should not only consider the subject property, but the potential induced effect of allowing such a variation to set a pattern for future development that would over time alter the neighborhood s character. Likewise, the rural countryside outside the city core should be carefully designed with nature in mind. 2-2 rticle 2 istricts Residential istricts : Listing of Residential istricts

17 2.2 MIX US ISTRITS MIX US ISTRITS OVRVIW The city s different commercial and mixed use downtown districts continue to be a center of activity and attraction for many visitors, which drives an important economic engine for the city. The qualities which attract this activity historic charm, a centralized downtown, and walkable community are the very qualities which Saratoga Springs needs to reinforce and advance. Looking forward, the city will need to continue to infill and reinforce its core downtown with new redevelopment and densification. This redevelopment provides opportunities to improve walkability, providing multi-modal transportation opportunities, sustainability and urban landscape improvements which will make the city an even more attractive destination.

In Zone, a more traditionally commercial land use pattern is permitted. hanges in grade with structured, straight edge cut and fill slopes and/ or retaining walls may be allowed to facilitate the clustering of uses and structures. b. In Zone, land use patterns should reflect a more rural character and the creation of geometric landforms should be avoided. In Zone, cut and fill slopes should be graded to mimic existing slopes and blend smoothly into the surrounding landform. Rural cut/fill slopes should be a maximum of 1:5 and gradually blend into surrounding slopes. dust, or mulch. igure Shared riveways. Shared driveways are strongly recommended in both zones of ateway esign istrict 1. Minimum recommended spacing between adjacent driveways on the same side of the street is 500 feet. ccess connections on opposite sides of the street should be aligned or off-set so as to eliminate left-turn conflicts. The Planning oard, as part of site plan review, should evaluate the effect of proposed driveway locations on development of abutting properties. Proposals for shared driveways may require cross access easements. igures 2.4-4, Vehicle / Pedestrian irculation and Parking. 1. lignment a. Within Zone, more rigid, angular circulation systems are recommended to increase density, land use efficiency, and enhance the contrast between the character of the commercial node and its surrounding land. b. Rural circulation systems are inherently curvilinear and historically follow the line of least topographic resistance such as valleys and stream corridors Therefore, in Zone, circulation systems should be curvilinear to reflect the natural landform. 2. Location. No more than 20% of parking shall be located as convenience parking in front of the front line of buildings and this standard may not be waived. The balance shall be located to the side or rear of the building. The area between the street and the parking at the side and front of a building should be landscaped to buffer the visual impacts. igure igure 2.4-3: Pedestrian circulation systems for ateway Overlay istrict Pedestrian Systems a. In Zone, pedestrian systems should be walks that connect buildings with other buildings, buildings with parking areas, and buildings with public amenities (i.e. parks). These walks should be constructed of concrete or unit pavers. b. In Zone, pedestrian systems should be trails that link commercial nodes to other use areas (i.e. neighborhoods). These trails should be constructed of flexible type pavements such as asphalt, stone igure 2.4-4: Plan illustrating negative impacts of multiple curb-cuts, removal of vegetation, wasted pavement for parking, and hazardous vehicle entries and exits.

No front building wall should be more than 80 feet in width unless interrupted by a recess or other vertical modulation at least 4 feet in depth and 20 feet in width. igure igure 2.4-5: Plan illustrating benefits of limited and shared access include minimizing number of driveways for infill development. 3. uilding Height a. Unless otherwise regulated, buildings should have a maximum height of 40 feet and include 2 usable stories. uildings with footprints greater than 20,000 square feet should have a minimum of 30% of each structure as 2 stories. typical rural roof form should also be applied to this additional story. igure b. Preferred rural roof forms include, but are not limited to, symmetrically pitched or hip roofs with or without gables and horse barn type roof ends. 4. Materials. uilding exteriors and signs should be constructed primarily of natural materials, such as wood and stone. Multiple uses sharing a single curb cut or off-street parking should use complementary building, signage and lighting forms and materials. igure 2.4-6: Linear corridor development limits views of rural resources such as vegetation, waterbodies, topography. H. Vegetation. xisting vegetation and topography should be retained to buffer and screen new buildings if possible. New landscaping, especially plantings for screening and buffering, should consist primarily of native plant species. 1. Within Zone, vegetation should occur in traditional, structured patterns while the type, form, mass, and configuration of vegetation in Zone should reflect rural design characteristics. 2.
