No, therefore
the applicant is
requesting for
Variance
Variance:

As identified under Municipal Code 5.48.040 General Provisions, Section A, an outdoor advertising sign shall not be within 600 feet from any property within a church. The applicant requests Variance approval since the proposed sign is to be installed within the same property as the “Family Worship Center” church, within the 600 foot minimum distance requirement. The subject property is triangular shape and the proposed sign is 400 feet away for the church building located at farthest west corner, the narrowest point of the project site.

In order for the Commission must make all the following findings in the affirmative, as specified in Section 17.76.020-B of the City Zoning Code.
 That the strict application of the provisions of this chapter would result in practical difficulties or unnecessary hardships inconsistent with the general purpose and intent of the chapter.
 That there are special circumstances applicable to the subject property such as size, shape, topography, location or surroundings, that do not apply generally to other property in the same zone and vicinity.
 That such variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right or use generally possessed by other property in the same zone and vicinity, but which, because of such special circumstances and practical difficulties or unnecessary hardships is denied to the property in question.
 That the granting of such variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the same zone or vicinity in which the property is located.
12 Item 2.
 That the granting of the variance will not adversely affect any element of the general plan.

Staff finds that proposed sign is utilizing a narrow corner of a triangular lot in a previously developed site for a church would have been difficult to develop with any other structures.

Although the proposed sign is located within the same property as the church, the installation maintenance and usage of the proposed sign will not disrupt the scheduled functions of the church, as there is enough distance from the proposed structure to the existing structure. In addition, the property owner who is affiliated with the church has agreed lease the portion of the property to the applicant. Moreover, the proposed sign is oriented to the freeway and will have limited visibility from the commercial area at the intersection of Dillon and Vista Del Norte. There are no other sensitive uses described in the Coachella Municipal Code, such as parks, public schools, courthouse, city hall or public museum, within 600 foot distance requirement for outdoor advertising signs. Furthermore, the nearest existing freeway-oriented advertising sign approximately 1,300 feet away that is not digital or electronic sign. The maintenance for the digital billboard sign will not be as extensive in comparison to the conventional banner type of billboard sign, as advertising images maybe be revised with a computer device offsite and there will be no need for physical installation or removal of signs due to sign deterioration or vacancy. Therefore, staff is recommending approval of Variance No. 22-01 with the findings and conditions attached in this report.

Use Interpretation:

The applicant, Foxpoint Interactive LLC, is also requesting for a use determination that the proposed electronic/digital billboard sign is similar to the electronic message board signs (reader boards) as identified in the Municipal Code 17.56.010 Section E(1). “…electronic message board signs (reader boards) may be permitted in the CG zone, on properties with a minimum street frontage of 200 feet, as long as all messages are of sufficient size and duration so as to be easily readable by the general public traveling by the site. Electronic message board signs shall not include flashing, blinking, or scrolling images or messages. Electronic message board signs shall not be placed within 1,000 feet of any other existing electronic message board sign.” There are currently no electronic billboard signs in the City of Coachella and electronic message boards signs are not specifically described as permitted in Chapter 5.48 and therefore a use interpretation is required.

The proposed electronic/digital billboard sign is affixed to the freeway-oriented outdoor sign structure is within the CG zone with approximately frontage of 600 feet. Since, the proposed sign is freeway oriented outdoor advertising sign, it is located away from the existing structure towards the corner oriented towards I-10 freeway. The images on the electronic/digital billboard sign will be in a presentation mode, where each image will be projected for a six to eight second duration, toallow the public traveling through the freeway to view the images accordingly. The proposed electronic/digital billboard sign will not be flashing, blinking or scrolling images or messages as conditioned for this project. The images will only transition as it moves from one image to another and will be still images with no animation or any movement. The proposed electronic/digital billboard sign is approximately 1,300 feet east from an existing outdoor advertising sign. The closest outdoor advertising sign electronic message board approximately 2,000 feet west projecting gas prices in Love’s Truck Stop located 45-761 Dillon Rd, Coachella, CA 92236. Staff 13 Item 2.
concludes that the proposed sign, electronic/digital billboard sign is similar in nature to a message board sign.

Environmental Setting:

The subject site is within an existing developed site at 85901 Vista Del Norte generally surrounded by urban uses, with adjoining zoning and land uses as follows:

North: Agriculture, C-T Tourist Commercial
South: I-10 Freeway
East: Vacant, C-G, General Commercial
West: Gas Station, C-G, General Commercial
Site Plan / Parking and Circulation:

The site is developed where it is currently being utilized as a church. There is one access point to the site from Vista Del Norte. The site provides ample parking spaces for the existing church. No modifications to the existing structures are proposed with this request.

CONSISTENCY WITH THE GENERAL PLAN:

The proposed freeway-oriented outdoor advertising sign would allow for digital advertising that may be utilized by local business for services and product advertisement. The location of the proposed sign is within the General Plan Subarea 12, which includes a policy to “capitalize access to the freeway and seek out and encourage freeway, oriented uses, large format retail, lodging and regional entertainment and recreational uses that benefit for easy regional access.” The proposed sign is an appropriate advertising structure orientated along the freeway to support and attract potential businesses or developments to subarea 12. In addition, the sign will provide advertising for businesses along the freeway, with the benefit to the city as the closest entrance to the city through Dillon Road.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:

Staff has determined that the proposed project is categorically exempt from environmental review pursuant to the guidelines of the California Environmental Quality Act as “New Construction of Small Structures” (CEQA Guidelines, Section 15303). The proposed project consists of construction of a new sign structure involving no expansion of existing or former commercial use on the property. In addition, the determination of consistency of an electronic/digital billboard sign similar to a permitted electronic message board would not have a significant environmental impact on the environment and is exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of State CEQA Guidelines.

Section 3. Variance Findings
With respect to Variance 22-01, the Planning Commission finds as follows for the proposed outdoor advertising sign.

1. The strict application of the provisions of the Zoning Code would result in practical difficulties or unnecessary hardships inconsistent with the general purpose and intent of the Zoning Code. The purpose of the City’s sign regulations seek to provide proper sign control necessary to create and maintain aesthetic values which benefit both resident and merchants who operate in the City. The proposed sign is utilizing an area; a narrow corner of a triangular lot in a previously developed site for a church would have been difficult to develop with any other structures. Denial of the variance will create an undue hardship for applicants that wishes to submit projects that would install structures on underutilized areas or sections within a property throughout the city as well as projects geared towards digital platforms.

2. There are special circumstances applicable to the subject property such as size, shape, topography, location or surroundings, that do not apply generally to other property in the same zone and vicinity. The subject property is triangular shape and the proposed sign is 400 feet away for the church building located at farthest west corner, the narrowest point of the project site with the ideal positioning to ensure images are seen on the freeway.

Going west from the proposed location will not allow such structures until the closest development along Dillon Road.

3. Such variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right or use generally possessed by other property in the same zone and vicinity, but which, because of such special circumstances and practical difficulties or unnecessary hardships is denied to the property in question. The electronic freeway-oriented outdoor advertising sign within the same property as the church, “Family Worship Center” and therefore within the 600 feet of the church. The property owner, church, has agreed with the applicant to lease a portion of the property to erect the sign structure.

4. The granting of the variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the same zone or vicinity in which the property is located. As conditioned, the applicant has to ensure the ongoing maintenance of area around the sign free of any debris and property function of the electronic/digital billboard sign.

5. The granting of the variance will not adversely affect any element of the General Plan.

The General Plan policies seek to enhance the aesthetic quality of the city’s streets and 17 Item 2.

The proposed electronic/digital billboard sign will not be flashing, blinking or scrolling images or messages as conditioned for this project. The images will only transition as it moves from one image to another, each image that will be project will be a still image with no animation or any movement. The closest electronic message board is approximately 2,000 feet west projecting gas prices in Love’s Truck Stop. Therefore, the proposed sign, electronic/digital billboard sign is similar in nature to a message board sign.

7. The City of Coachella has determined that the proposed project is categorically exempt from environmental review pursuant to the guidelines of the California Environmental Quality Act as an “New Construction of Small Structures” project (CEQA Guidelines, Section 15303) and the use finding electronic message board would not have a significant environmental impact on the environment and is exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of State CEQA Guidelines.

Resolution No. PC 2022-08 EXHIBIT B
INTERPRETATION REGARDING ELECTRONIC/DIGITAL BILLBOARD SIGN:

The interpretation is made that Coachella Municipal Code Section 5.48 Outdoor Advertising Sign includes electronic/digital billboard sign as an allowable type of sign, since the section does not identify whether an electronic/digital sign may be incorporated on an outdoor advertising sign structure. In addition, an interpretation has to be made that Coachella Municipal Code Section 17.56 Signs identifies electronic message board (reader boards) similar or can be considered as electronic/digital billboard sign. The Section lacks the definition for a message board (reader boards) and whether it can be considered similar to an electronic/digital billboard sign.

The electronic/digital sign is defined as computer-controlled electronic displays has the capability of projecting still images on a sign surface area on a presentation mode, where each image will be projected in an appropriate timing for public view. 23 Item 2.

STAFF REPORT
4/6/2022
TO: Planning Commission
FROM: Gabriel Perez, Development Services Director
SUBJECT: Tripoli Mixed-Use Project (Continuance requested to April 20, 2022) SPECIFICS: Change of Zone (CZ) 22-01, Conditional Use Permit (CUP) 351, Architectural Review (AR) 22-04 to amend the Official Zoning Map by adding the PUD (Planned Unit Development) Overlay Zone on 2.8 acres of vacant C-G (General Commercial) zoned property for a mixed-use development consisting of 108 apartment units and 2 retail units. The site is located at the northeast corner of Cesar Chavez Street and Bagdad Avenue (APN# 778-081-003 and -001) Applicant: Chelsea Investment Corporation
The applicant request that the Planning Commission continue this item to the Planning Commission meeting of April 20, 2022 to be able to review conditions of approval further and amend exhibits as necessary.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

Chelsea Investment Corporation requests Planning Commission approval of the Tripoli MixedUse project that includes a mixed-use development consisting of 108 affordable apartments units, with 1-3 bedroom options, and two retail spaces on 2.8 acres at the northeast corner of Cesar Chavez Street and Bagdad Avenue as follows:
 Building A – 3-story 49,794 sq. ft. building

Street and Bagdad Avenue)
 Outdoor Tot Lot
34 Item 3.

BACKGROUND:

The subject site is a vacant commercial property and historical aerial photographs from 1953 identify a previous large commercial/industrial building on the site and later removed on 1996 aerial photographs. Chelsea Investment Corporation is currently constructing a 3-story, 105-unit mixed-use development, Pueblo Viejo Villas, on 2.61 acre site north of this subject site as a transitoriented development approved under Change of Zone 17-03, . A transit hub on 1.66 acres at the corner of Fourth Street and Cesar Chavez Street will be constructed in association with Pueblo Viejo Villas and will be operated by Sunline Transit Agency.

Figure 1: Pueblo Viejo Revitalization Plan Perspective Sketch

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
The surrounding land uses and zoning designations are as follows:

North: Existing commercial development and Pueblo Viejo Villas, (C-G, General Commercial and C-G PD).

South: Rancho Grande Markets (C-G, General Commercial).

East: Residential neighborhood and vacant land (C-G, General Commercial and R-S, Residential Single Family).

West: O’Reilly Auto Parts and Cesar Chavez Street (C-G, General Commercial).

Site Plan
The applicant proposes construction of a mixed-use development consisting of 108 apartment units and 2 retail spaces within 2 buildings in the Pueblo Viejo District. Building A is 3-story; 49,794 sq. ft. building located toward the Southwest corner of 6th Street and Tripoli Avenue. Building B 35 Item 3.
is a 4-story, 71,079 sq. ft. building located toward the Northeast corner of Bagdad Avenue and Cesar Chavez Street. Both building would be constructed near property line with building frontages on 6th Street, Tripoli Way, Bagdad Avenue and Cesar Chavez Street and on-site parking oriented behind the buildings consistent with goals of the Pueblo Viejo Revitalization Plan. The orientation of the building support the City’s goals of promoting a walkable downtown environment with a well-designed public realm.

Figure 2: Site Plan
Building A
Building A is a 3-story, 49,794 sq. ft. building consisting of 44 apartment units, a 652 sq. ft. multipurpose room, and 1,805 sq. ft. ground floor retail space. (Southwest corner of 6th Street and Tripoli Ave). There are 1-3 bedrooms options available ranging in size from 581 sq. ft. to 1,061 sq. ft as follows.
o 13 - One bedroom units (581-586 sq. ft.)
o 17 – Two bedroom units (799 sq. ft.)
o 14 – Three bedroom units (1,061 sq. ft.)
36 Item 3.

A 652 sq. ft. multi-purpose building and laundry room is proposed on the first floor. The main entrance and lobby is accessed from the parking lot, in addition to 3 other access points. Access above the first floor is by three proposed staircases and no elevator is proposed. Staff has requested that space between the west building elevation and property line be configured to improve safety and opportunity for usable common area for residents and customers of the retail space.

Building B
Building B is a 4-story, 71,079 sq. ft. building consisting of 64 apartment units, a 1,296 sq. ft. community room and a 1,413 sq. ft. ground floor retail space. (Northeast corner of Cesar Chavez Street and Bagdad Avenue). The distribution of 1- 3 bedroom apartment units are as follows. o 27 - One bedroom units (581-586 sq. ft.)
o 52 – Two bedroom units (799 sq. ft.)
o 29 – Three bedroom units (1,061 sq. ft.)
A 1,296 sq. ft. community room and laundry room is proposed on the first floor. The main entrance and lobby is accessed from the parking lot, in addition to 2 other access points. Access above the first floor is proposed by an elevator located at the lobby or two staircases. The City’s General Plan allows a density from 20 to 65 units per acre and the proposed project has a density of 38 units per acre measured over the 2.8 acres. Thus, the proposed density is within the maximum allowable density of the General Plan.

Ground floor retail for Building A and B would not include improvements such as bathrooms, fire sprinklers, or grease traps. The Pueblo Viejo Draft Standards require 15 foot high ceiling for ground floor retail to accommodate modern commercial and retail activities. The applicant has stated that the retail ceiling is 12 feet in height.

A 218 sq. ft. fenced tot lot is proposed near the project parking lot with playground equipment for children. No details of the playground equipment were submitted for the Architectural Review, but will be reviewed during building permit plan check. The project does not provide a significant amount of common outdoor open space for the project, but does contribute to an attractive and high quality streetscape as recommended in the Pueblo Viejo Revitalization Plan.

Parking
The parking serving the site is provided with one large on-site parking area consisting of 118 parking spaces and is accessed by driveways from Bagdad Avenue and Tripoli Way. Parking based on 120,873 sq. ft. of gross floor area, would require 362 spaces in the Pueblo Viejo Revitalization Plan. The applicant proposes 118 onsite parking spaces and 41 on-street parking spaces. The Pueblo Viejo Revitalization Plan draft development standards allow for on street parking to be counted toward required parking if within 500 feet of the main entrance of the development. Senate Bill 35 allows affordable housing development within ½ mile of public transit to be exempted from parking standards. With the application of density bonus law, only 61 parking spaces would be required or a surplus of 97 parking spaces. Staff is supportive of allowing the development to utilize on-street parking to count towards satisfying parking requirements, 37 Item 3.
which would be provided by constructing 13 diagonal parking spaces on Bagdad Avenue and 28 diagonal parking spaces on Tripoli Way.

Architectural Design
The overall architectural style of the project incorporates Spanish Colonial Revival design. The proposed design complies with the City’s Pueblo Viejo design guidelines with regard to form, articulation, materials and proper equipment screening. The project includes red tile roof elements with distinct material and color patterns for each building. Doors and windows are shown on perspective graphics as recessed on all facades to create articulation and relief.

Figure 3: Rendering at the Corner of Cesar Chavez Street and Bagdad Avenue Figure 4: Cesar Chavez Street and Bagdad Avenue Elevations Cesar Chavez Street Frontage
Bagdad Avenue Frontage
38 Item 3.

Figure 5: Tripoli Way and 6th Street Elevations
The retail and community room frontage of Building B has a prominent design on the first floor as depicted in Figure 4 with large windows with divided lites and awnings. The retail space for Building A includes considerable frontage facing 6th Street that contributes significantly to the pedestrian environment encouraged along 6th Street. The first floor residential units are currently designed with an enclosed outdoor space and are recommended to be modified so that access ways occur along the street frontage in order to improve the pedestrian environment and engage the public realm as recommended in the Pueblo Viejo Revitalization Plan.

The main portion of the building roof is relatively uniform, which is enhanced dramatically by the distinct large corner towers and secondary articulating towers, with both a gable design or capped with cornice trim. Windows are recessed and windows show variation in design with some windows including shutters and decorative foam trim and other windows that include awnings.

Balconies include decorative wrought iron enclosures.

Staff requests the following design modifications be incorporated in keeping with the Spanish Colonia Revival architectural design (See Attachment 10) as conditions of approval as follows:

1. Creating sloped window sills consistent with Spanish Colonial Revival design.

2. Ensuring sufficient window recesses.

3. Painting window edges colors consistent with Spanish Colonial Revival design.

4. Corner towers for building A and B shall be modified as follows:
 Bring proposed cornice trim closer to edge of roof tile.  Balance the design of tower areas between the top of the retail space and bottom of roof cornice trim.

Tripoli Way Frontage
6 th Street Frontage
39 Item 3.
 Consider a more ridged decorative cornice trim to create more shadows.  Include an enhanced decorative balcony structure at each tower that provides visual focal point from Cesar Chavez Street and 6th Street.
 Include a spire or weather vane ornamental feature.

5. Utilize an alternate color banding at the building base such as terracota color.

6. Awnings shall be designed and constructed to support a catenary curve common with Spanish Colonial Revival design to also increase window visibility.

7. Enhance the Building B north tower feature with architectural enhancements above 38 foot level

8. Use a stucco pattern that encapsulate the tile at the roof gables to create attractive shadow patterns.

9. Utilize two-piece clay tile roofing with booster tiles on the edges and random mortar packing. The mortar shall packed on 100 percent of the tiles in the first two rows of tiles and along any rake and ridgeline, and packed on 25 percent of the tiles on the remaining field. Mortar packing shall serve as a bird stop at roof edges, The volume of mortar pack to achieve the appropriate thickness shall be equivalent to a 6-inch diameter sphere of mortar applied to reach tile.

10. Stucco walls shall consist of 'steel, hand trowel', smooth Mission finish and slight undulations (applied during brown coat) and bull-nose corners and edges.

11. Provide a lighting plan with proposed light fixtures consistent with the architectural theme of the project.

Sign Program
Signs programs are required for multi-tenant buildings and approval by the Planning Commission.

The Planning Commission review of the sign programs includes, but not limited to, sign placement, color, architectural integrity, construction material, legibility, size and scale, and illumination. The applicant proposes a sign program consisting of illuminated blade signs identifying the project name, and either a blade or illuminated wall signs for ground floor retail businesses. All tenant wall signs are required to comply with the approved sign program consisting of back-lit or “halo” illuminated individual letters. Conditions of approval have been added so that cabinet type signs only be permitted as secondary to the individual channel letters and that raceway signs are prohibited.

Landscape Design
The plant palette shows a variety of trees including “Mulga”, “Hong Kong Orchard,” “Desert Willow,” “Texas Ebony,” “Drake Elm” and “California Fan Palm.” The project is conditioned to modify the landscape plan to create planters adjacent to curb at Cesar Chavez Street and planted with Hong Kong Orchard trees to provide shade for pedestrians. The planters will include waterefficient shrubs including “Bank Catclaw”, “Do-La-la Bougainvillea”, “Compact Texas Ranger”, “Mexican Bush Sage.” Succulents will include “Dwarf Century Plant,” “Blue Flame Agave,” “Red Yucca”, and “Toothless Desert Spoon”. A cluster of palm trees is also provided at the corner of Cesar Chavez Street and First Street along with other landscape materials design to make the future 40 Item 3.
public art location a focal point. The applicant is unable to meet the requirement of 10 shade trees at every 10 parking spaces due to the proposed solar carports.

CONSISTENCY WITH THE GENERAL PLAN
The proposed project is within the Downtown Center land use designation of the General Plan 2035 Land Use and Community Character Element. The Downtown Center is intended to bring the entire community together in a one-of-a-kind Coachella Center, which allows for commercial uses. The General Plan allows for a residential density of 20-65 dwelling units/acre and a Floor Area Ratio of 0.5-3 for commercial uses. The project proposes a density of 38 dwelling units per acre and is thereby consistent with the General Plan. The project is consistent with the policies of the Land Use and Community Character's Sub-Area #2 policies, which recognize that Downtown is the heart of the City where mixed use development is encouraged and creates a new gateway to downtown near intersection of Sixth Street and Cesar Chavez Street.

CONSISTENCY WITH ZONING
The subject site is zoned C-G (General Commercial) zone, which does not allow for mixed-use development and specifically only permits a residential unit as a proprietors unit. The Zoning is currently inconsistent with the General Plan land use as the future zoning should be Downtown Center, which would accommodate mixed-use development at a density of 20-65 dwelling units/acre. In order to accommodate this type of development, the applicant requests amend the Official Zoning Map with approval of the PUD (Planned Unit Development) Overlay Zone on the

2.8 acres of vacant C-G (General Commercial) zoned property, which allows the applicant to establish flexible development standards and permitted uses insofar as it is consistent with the General Plan. Staff requested that the applicant incorporate the draft development standards of the Pueblo Viejo Revitalization Plan, which identifies this area as the Sixth Street Pueblo Viejo Zone and Cesar Chavez Pueblo Viejo Zone. The project complies with the draft Development Standards of the Sixth Street Pueblo Viejo Zone, except for unit size, parking, retail space height, residential first floor height, and public/common open space requirements.

As such, no additional environmental review is required.

Section 3. Change of Zone Findings
With respect to Change of Zone No. 22-01, the Planning Commission finds as follows for the proposed change of zone.:

The re-zoning of the property will allow for new affordable, high density residential, which will promote the City’s long-term residential development goals for the larger vicinity and help in meeting the RHNA numbers as assigned by SCAG.

2. The proposed change of zone is consistent with the intent and purpose of the City’s General Plan in that the proposed CG-PUD zoning would allow future high density multi-family residential projects and a potential transit hub, which assist in keeping with the goals and policies of the General Plan. The proposed change of zone is consistent with the goals and policies of the Land Use Element of the General Plan which designates the subject property as a Downtown Center. The proposed CG-PUD zoning is a conforming zone in the Downtown Center General Plan land use designation.

3. The proposed change of zone is consistent with the Zoning Code Planned Unit Development regulations that allow developers to propose design guidelines, development standards and uses. The C-G, General Commercial zone, primarily allows for commercial development and the proposed Planned Unit Development would allow for mixed-used development at residential densities permitted under the Coachella General Plan 2035.

Pueblo Viejo Implementation Strategy Plan – FINAL REPORT – October 2019

GB-PV ZONE

17.25.010 Intent and purpose.

This zone is intended to provide for and encourage the orderly development of the areas of the Pueblo Viejo that borders Grapefruit Boulevard and serve as gateways into the district. The Pueblo Viejo is envisioned as a higher-density downtown area that provides for a wide variety of multi-family residential housing, office, and retail uses. Centered around a mixed-use core, this zone encourages future mixed-use development, but recognizes the need to support existing uses previously allowed under the C-G General Commercial Use and M-S Manufacturing Service zones. This zone provides for an orderly transition to higher intensity development, defined as the Downtown Center in the city’s General Plan. While encouraging pedestrian-friendly connections and safe multi-modal access, this zone recognizes current automobile-oriented uses, but allows for flexibility in reducing parking requirements, maintaining existing historical automobile-oriented architectural character along Grapefruit Boulevard and retrofitting existing development as market-demands call for new, innovative and/or higher intensity development styles.

17.29.010 Intent and purpose.

This zone is intended to provide for and encourage the orderly development of the core of the Pueblo Viejo District. the core of the Pueblo Viejo District is envisioned, by the city’s General Plan and Pueblo Viejo Vision Plan, as a higher-density mixed-use (either vertical and/or horizontal) downtown area that provides for a wide variety of multi-family residential housing, office, and retail uses. This zone encourages a high-energy pedestrian-friendly environment with street-facing buildings, maintained building lines, a variation of architectural character, and sidewalk and public spaces to provide for gathering spaces and promote outdoor activities including dining, people watching, public art and passive recreation. Motorized vehicle access would minimize impacts on a highly connected pedestrian environment with alley and rear entry access, parking in structures or internal to blocks, and services located behind buildings, in alleyways or rear parking areas. The use of the public realm is encouraged with on-street dining and temporary uses encouraged on sidewalks and adjoining setbacks for these purposes.
