Subchapter 2: Administration & Procedures To be developed in future Module. Zoning Districts and Uses Public Draft Page 3

Subchapter 3: Zoning Districts Commentary: This subchapter includes the new lineup of zoning districts, each including a purpose statement, a district illustration, and dimensional standards (lot and building requirements). This subchapter is based on provisions from the current Subchapter 2, Official Maps and Subchapter 5, Zoning Districts and Limitations. Permitted uses and limitations will be located in the new Subchapter 5, Use Regulations. The current DDC has a relatively large number of zoning districts, many of which appear to overlap in purpose and have similar standards. In this draft, many districts in the current DDC are proposed to be consolidated, renamed, and/or eliminated. A handful of new districts also are suggested, including four new corridor-specific zoning districts. Purpose statements. Purpose statements for each zoning district were drafted based on current language in the DDC and to align the districts with the Denton Plan 2030. Dimensional standards are intended to align with the vision and goals of the Denton Plan 2030. Graphics. The graphics illustrate the general character of the district and demonstrate the basic dimensional standards. In this draft, we have included a district graphic for many of the zoning districts. Some of the district graphics still require additional discussion (e.g., rural conservation, corridor districts, and public facilities). In the consolidated draft of the DDC (after Modules 2 and 3 are developed), each graphic will ultimately be keyed to their respective dimensional table for that district. Summary tables. Following each district graphic, a summary table of dimensional standards is provided. Because of the large number of consolidations, there were often times when the standards were inconsistent. In most cases, when there were inconsistent standards we opted for the more flexible or generous standard. For example, the NRMU and NRMU-12 districts are being consolidated into a single MN district. The NRMU-12 district allows a maximum height of 40 feet whereas the NRMU allows 65 feet. For the MN, we chose the greater height requirement of 65 feet. Each change to dimensional standards is noted with a footnote. Regulating density. We did not carry forward standards regulating density, size, and scale, leaving only basic dimensional standards that can address those same challenges through a simpler approach. For example, maximum density (du/acre) has been removed because project densities are largely determined by the required setbacks, height limits, minimum parking counts, and minimum landscaping requirements. Similarly, FAR and building separation standards have been eliminated. The current DDC provides separate dimensional standards for some subdivisions based on size. For example, subdivisions in the RD-5 zoning district that are less than 10 acres must meet lot dimensional standards; however, subdivisions larger than 10 acres only need to meet density and building separation standards. It is recommended all lots conform to the same standards to create district identity and character. Dimensional requirements that protect neighborhood character (e.g., increased setbacks when nonresidential projects abut residential zoning districts) are currently shown with an asterisk in the district dimensional tables. These standards may be relocated to Subchapter 6, Development Standards under a new neighborhood protection standards section with the next module. Such standards will be cross-referenced in the dimensional tables under the additional standards column. Along those lines, the language for Mixed Use Residential Protection Overlay referenced in 35.5.2.4 of the DDC has been eliminated. There are no other references to this overlay in the DDC. Subchapter 6, Development Standards will address neighborhood compatibility requirements. Zoning Districts and Uses Public Draft Page 5

Subchapter 3: Zoning Districts 3.1. Purpose and Organization 3.1.1. Zoning Districts Established 3.1 PURPOSE AND ORGANIZATION 1 3.1.1. ZONING DISTRICTS ESTABLISHED 2 Zoning districts are established as shown in Table 3.1-A: Zoning District Designations. Zoning districts are established by the City s adoption of the Official Zoning Map of City.

Once developed, elements from that plan will be incorporated into the DDC overlay districts as appropriate. Zoning Districts and Uses Public Draft Page 6

Subchapter 3: Zoning Districts 3.1. Purpose and Organization 3.1.2. Organization of this Subchapter 3.1.2. 3.1.3. ORGANIZATION OF THIS SUBCHAPTER 4 A. B. Base Zoning Districts 1. Sections 3.2 through 3.5 follow a common structure for describing the purpose and intent for each base zoning district, the applicable dimensional standards, and any district-specific standards. 2. Each base zoning district includes an illustration demonstrating the dimensional requirements for that district. The illustrations are not intended to represent a specific location, but rather reflect the general character of the district. 3. Each base zoning district includes a table of dimensional standards summarizing the most pertinent dimensional standards applicable to each district. The labels in the table correspond to the applicable illustration. These tables are illustrative only and do not identify all standards that may apply to a particular development. 4. If a standard shown in an illustration is inconsistent with the respective table of dimensional standards, the standards in the table shall govern. Planned Development District 1. Planned Development districts are established by the Zoning Amendment Procedure pursuant to Section -- 5. Development in a PD district is subject to the standards included in or referenced in an approved plan. 2. Section 3.6 describes the general purpose of PD districts and sets forth base requirements applicable to all such districts, including the minimum development standards to be addressed in the district s plan and the means of modifying the standards of this Code through a PD development approval. OFFICIAL ZONING MAP A. B. C. Incorporation of Map 1. The location and boundaries of the districts designated in this subchapter are established as shown on the map entitled "Official Zoning Map of City" (hereafter referred to as the "Zoning Map"), dated as of the effective date of this subchapter. 2. The signed originals of the Zoning Map shall be maintained on file in the office of the Director and, by reference, are made a part of this subchapter as if fully incorporated. District Boundaries 6 Unless otherwise specified, district boundaries are lot lines, the centerlines of streets, creeks and railroad right-of-way, or such lines extended. Digital Mapping 7 Digital maps, created through the use of geographic information system technology, containing registration points recorded on the Texas State Plane Coordinate System, as 4 New section. 5 Cross-reference will be hyperlinked when the procedures are developed. 6 Previously 35.2.4. 7 Previously 35.2.5.

In the event that a zoning district boundary is unclear or is disputed, the Director shall determine the location of the zoning district boundary. 2. Any appeal of the Director s determination of the zoning district boundary shall be established by the Board of Adjustment Procedure pursuant to Section --. Amendments to the Zoning Map 9 1. If, in accord with the provisions of this subchapter, changes are made in district boundaries portrayed on the Zoning Map, the date of such changes shall be promptly noted on the Zoning Map after the amendment has been approved by the City Council and duly noted in the minutes of the City Council meeting. 2. No changes shall be made to the Zoning Map except in conformance with the procedures set forth in Section --. 3.1.4. ANNEXED TERRITORY When any territory is brought into the jurisdiction of the City of Denton, by annexation or otherwise, such territory shall be deemed to be in the RC Rural Conservation district unless the City Council designates another zoning district at the time of annexation after review and recommendation by the Planning and Zoning Commission. Such recommendation and determination shall include consideration of surrounding uses as well as policies stated in the Comprehensive Plan. Initial annexation shall require compliance with the zoning procedure in Section --. 10 8 New. 9 Previously 35.2.6 - replaced changes with amendments. 10 Will cross-reference initial zoning and/or annexation procedures in the administration and procedures module.

Purpose The RC district is intended to provide and maintain areas of rural use within the City. Application of this district will ensure that farming, forest, environmental, and scenic areas are protected from incompatible development. This district includes farms and ranches as the predominant use with very low-density rural residential and rural commercial uses. The RC district may be used as an interim zoning district for annexed property.

The current asterisk references in the table will be relocated to a new section, and that section will be cross-referenced in this additional standards column. 13 Current minimum lot width in RD-5 is 200 feet. 14 Current minimum lot depth in RD-5 is 250 feet. 15 Did not carry forward side yard adjacent to street For any zoning district. This draft proposes revised corner lot standards, with corner lots now having two front yards and shall comply with the minimum front yard setback for each lot line adjacent to a street. 16 Eliminated maximum density, dwelling units per acre, minimum building separation, and maximum far except for single-family uses. Moved maximum WECS height and detached building standards to special use standards section. Did not carry forward minimum landscape percentage requirement for single-family residential zoning districts. The setback and lot coverage standards will indirectly inform how much landscaping is on the lot. Zoning Districts and Uses Public Draft Page 11

Subchapter 3: Zoning Districts 3.2. Residential Districts 3.2.2. R1 - Residential Very Low 3.2.2. R1 - RESIDENTIAL VERY LOW 17 A. Purpose The R1 district is intended to preserve existing very low-density neighborhoods and to ensure that any new development promotes conservation of scenic rural open space and is compatible with existing land uses, patterns, and design standards. The R1 district can be used as a transitional district between rural development and low-density residential neighborhoods. Figure 3.2-B: R1 District Dimensional Standards 18 17 Renamed from NR-1 (Previously 35.5.2). Purpose statement based on existing language and Land Use Designations in Denton Plan 2030. 18 Ultimately these labels will be keyed to the dimensional standards on the following page. Following feedback from stakeholders on the appropriate dimensions to reflect on the graphics, we will develop the remaining district graphics and key the tables to each respective district graphic.
