ITEM #: G.5
SUBJECT: Cooperative Agreement with Caltrans for the I-5/SR 113 Freeway to Freeway Connector Project, CIP 24-
06 Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the Council adopt Resolution No. _____, approving the Cooperative Agreement with the State of California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) regarding the I-5/SR 113 Freeway to Freeway Connector Project, and authorizing the City Manager to sign the Agreement on behalf of the City.

Staff Contact:

Brent Meyer, Community Development Director/City Engineer, (530) 661-5947, [email protected]

Fiscal Impact:

The Capital Budget (including funding in the FY 25 fiscal year) includes $1,841,982 in funding for the project, consisting of $22,000 in Measure F Funding (Fund 1507), $769,982 in Road Development Funding (Fund 1582) and $1,050,000 in Transportation Grant Funding (Fund 1351). These funds will be used to cover the cost of updating the Caltrans Project Report.

The Caltrans Cooperative Agreement specifies the assignment of responsibilities between the City and Caltrans. Generally speaking, the City is responsible for funding the project work and Caltrans does not charge the City for their involvement in reviewing the project.

Background:

Since the 1990s, the city has been working with SACOG and the State of California (Caltrans) to fund the I-5/SR 113 Freeway to Freeway Connector Project. The City completed an environmental document and Project Report in 2000. The Project Report defined the scope of the project at that time. Since then, the City has wanted to incorporate changes to the Project that would reduce the overall construction costs. Caltrans has told the City that we need to complete a Supplemental Project Report in order to incorporate our proposed cost-reduction changes. The Supplemental Project Report also includes a review of the environmental document. The Cooperative Agreement is needed because the project is primarily located within the State of California right of way.

Caltrans will delegate the CEQA responsibilities to the City as the Lead agency for the entire project while remaining the CEQA responsible agency.

Discussion:

In 2023, the City submitted a Congressional directed funding request to Congressman Thompson to assist in funding needed to complete the Supplemental Project Report and position the project for construction funding. Rep. Thompson secured this funding in the government funding bill that was signed into law on March 9th. Full text for this Consolidated Appropriations Act, H.R.4366, can be found here:
https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/house-bill/4366. The City is required to provide a local match of at least 20% federal funding ($262,500).

Page 12 ends

In the next six months, staff will perform a quality-based selection process in order to select a consultant to perform the Supplemental Project Report work. At that time, staff will return to the Council to authorize the contract.

Conclusion:

Staff recommends that the Council adopt Resolution No. _____, approving the Cooperative Agreement with the State of California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) regarding the I-5/SR 113 Freeway to Freeway Connector Project, and authorizing the City Manager to sign the Agreement on behalf of the City.

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION (CALTRANS) FOR THE I-5/SR 113 FREEWAY TO FREEWAY CONNECTOR PROJECT, CIP 24-06

TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA: City Council Regular Meeting
DATE: June 18, 2024
ITEM #: G.6
SUBJECT: Comprehensive Zoning Code - Second Reading

Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council conduct a second reading and adopt Ordinance No. 1722 (Attachment 1) repealing the Interim Zoning Ordinance, repealing Title 17 (Zoning) of the Woodland Municipal Code and enacting the updated Comprehensive Zoning Code and associated Zoning Map.

Staff Contact:

Erika Bumgardner, Deputy Community Development Director, (530) 661-5886, [email protected]

Fiscal Impact:

The Zoning Code and CEQA Update Project (CIP#07-07) was established in 2007 with $100,000 to fund Zoning Code and CEQA updates. Since 2007, limited code updates and preparation of the Interim Zoning Update have utilized project funds (CIP#07-07). In 2017, the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) initiated the Planning Grants Program intended for the preparation, adoption and implementation of plans to streamline housing approvals and accelerate housing production. The City of Woodland initiated a Comprehensive Zoning Code (CZC) Update and received two Planning Grants from HCD, SB2 funds in 2019, for $310,000, and LEAP grant funds in 2020, for $300,000. Additionally, the City received $85,000 in REAP grant funds from SACOG. Total funds allocated to the CZC project are $655,624.

On September 3, 2019, the City entered into a professional services contract with Lisa Wise Consulting, Inc. for $358,610 to prepare the CZC update. On October 15, 2020, a Second Amendment to the contract was approved to add $36,160 to the original contract for an overall contract amount of $394,770. A fourth amendment reallocated grant funds in the amount of $130,830 to the contract with Lisa Wise Consulting, Inc., resulting in an overall contract amount of $525,600 to complete the CZC project.

Background:

On June 4, 2024, the City Council introduced and waived the first reading of an Ordinance repealing the Interim Zoning Ordinance, repealing Title 17 (Zoning) of the Woodland Municipal Code and enacting the updated Comprehensive Zoning Code (CZC) and associated Zoning Map.

The Zoning Ordinance is one of the most important tools for implementing the City's 2035 General Plan. While the General Plan provides broad land use classifications, zoning is more specific and may allow multiple zones per single general plan land use category as long as the intensity and density of development are consistent with the General Plan. Zoning translates general policies into more specific regulations and standards.

For the period immediately following adoption of the General Plan, the city adopted a stand-alone Interim Zoning Ordinance (IZO) to address areas of land use inconsistency between the newly adopted General Plan and Zoning for the commercial, industrial and mixed-use zones. The IZO incorporates new standards and practices that have guided much of the new development that has occurred since 2018. The IZO has generally been considered successful and the CZC has built upon

Page 37 ends

the best elements and lessons learned through use of the IZO.

The goal of the CZC update is to facilitate new desired development through the provision of clear and understandable standards, guidelines, and procedures. The CZC includes an updated development review process to assist residents, development partners, staff and decision makers to allow qualified development proposals expedited review, thereby helping to reduce the front-end design/development costs particularly for new housing projects and for new or expanding businesses. A critical purpose for the update is to ensure that the CZC addresses numerous legislative updates and requirements. Since 2017, the State of California has passed a significant amount of legislation relating to housing with a primary emphasis on streamlining the production of new housing and removing barriers. Grants from the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) have assisted in funding the CZC update and require the new code to utilize objective design standards that clearly articulate development standards and minimize the review process for housing projects. Objective standards have also been provided for commercial, mixed use and industrial developments in the CZC to clarify desired site and building design expectations and provide certainty through the review process.

Environmental Review
In May 2017, the City Council adopted the City of Woodland 2035 General Plan and certified the related Environmental Impact Report (Final EIR), State Clearinghouse Number 2013032015. Under CEQA Guidelines section 15162, a subsequent EIR need not be prepared unless the lead agency determines one or more of the following:

1. Substantial changes are proposed in the project which will require major revisions of the previous EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects;

2. Substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under which the project is undertaken which will require major revisions of the previous EIR due to the involvement of any new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; or

3. New information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the EIR was certified, shows any of the following:
a. The project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous EIR; b. Significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe than shown in the previous EIR;
c. Mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative; or d. Mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably different from those analyzed in the previous EIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative.

The Zoning Code Update, in and of itself, does not propose specific development projects, but rather codifies zoning rules, processes, and procedures that guide future growth in Woodland. The proposed General Plan text and land use map amendments do not include any new goals, policies, or implementation actions, or otherwise authorize new uses or development of land. Each future development project would be subject to separate review to determine potential impacts on the environment related to each project as potential impacts are location-specific and cannot be assessed in a meaningful way until a project site and development proposal are identified. When a specific development proposal is considered for approval, that project would be subject to adopted development guidelines and standards outlined in the Zoning Code and be required to incorporate applicable mitigation measures, alternatives and/or uniformly applied policies developed in the 2035

Page 38 ends

General Plan EIR certified in 2017 (in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15168[c]). If a subsequent activity (in this case a specific development proposal that requires discretionary approval) would have effects not identified in the program EIR (the 2035 General Plan EIR and this Addendum), the lead agency must prepare additional CEQA documentation.

The Addendum Evaluation prepared for the Comprehensive Zoning Code update and related General Plan Amendments (Attachment 9), includes the analysis of the changes and potential impacts related to the adoption of the Zoning Code Update. The Addendum evaluation demonstrates the project’s consistency with the existing Woodland 2035 General Plan and Final EIR to satisfy the requirements of CEQA. No substantial changes are proposed in the Comprehensive Zoning Code update and related General Plan Amendments, and there are no substantial changes in the circumstances under which the project will be undertaken that will require major revisions to the previous EIR due to the involvement of significant new environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects. Also, there is no "new information of substantial importance" as that term is used in CEQA Guidelines Section 15162(a)(3). Therefore, the previously certified 2035 General Plan EIR is adequate and the Addendum Evaluation serves as an addendum to the 2035 General Plan Final Environmental Impact Report (General Plan FEIR).

Conclusion:

Staff recommends that the City Council conduct a second reading and adopt Ordinance No. 1722 (Attachment 1) repealing the Interim Zoning Ordinance, repealing Title 17 (Zoning) of the Woodland Municipal Code and enacting the updated Comprehensive Zoning Code and associated Zoning Map.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of Woodland does hereby ordain as follows:

Section 1: Recitals
The City Council hereby finds and determines that the foregoing recitals, which are incorporated herein by reference, are true and correct.

Section 2: Findings for Zoning Ordinance Amendment
Pursuant to Woodland Municipal Code 17.04.030, the City Council finds that the comprehensive update to the Zoning Ordinance promotes the health, safety, comfort, and general welfare, provides a plan for sound and orderly development, and ensures social and economic stability within the various zones.

The comprehensive update to the Zoning Ordinance is consistent with the 2035 General Plan and Climate Action Plan, and conforms to the requirements of State planning and zoning laws. This comprehensive update to the Zoning Ordinance and Zoning Map implements all applicable goals and policies of the City’s 2035 General Plan that relate to development on real property throughout the City.

Page 41 ends

The Zoning Ordinance update is consistent with good zoning and planning practices and will allow the City to implement the community goals, objectives, and policies of the 2035 General Plan and Climate Action Plan through regulation of land uses and development on real property throughout the City.

Section 3: Environmental Review
The City Council finds that no substantial changes are proposed in the Comprehensive Zoning Code update (Exhibit A), Zoning Map (Exhibit B) and related 2035 General Plan text and Land Use Map amendments resulting in new or unanticipated levels of development that were not previously identified in the 2035 General Plan Final EIR, and there are no substantial changes in the circumstances under which the project will be undertaken that will require major revisions to the previous EIR due to the involvement of significant new environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects. Also, there is no "new information of substantial importance" as that term is used in CEQA Guidelines Section 15162(a)(3). Therefore, the previously certified 2035 General Plan EIR is adequate and the Addendum Evaluation (Exhibit C) serves as an addendum to the 2035 General Plan Final Environmental Impact Report (General Plan FEIR).

Section 4: Repeals
Title 17 of the Woodland Municipal Code (entitled “Zoning”) is hereby repealed in its entirety.

The Woodland Zoning Map is hereby repealed in its entirety.

The Interim Zoning Ordinance 2020 is hereby repealed in its entirety.

Section 5: Adoption of the New Zoning Ordinance
The new Zoning Ordinance, identified as Exhibit A attached and incorporated hereto, is hereby adopted in its entirety as Title 17 of the Woodland Municipal Code.

Section 6: Adoption of the New Zoning Map
The new Zoning Map is hereby adopted, identified as Exhibit B attached and incorporated hereto.

Section 7: Effect of Repeals or Amendments
Any such repealed or superseded part of the Woodland Municipal Code as provided in this Ordinance will remain in full force and effect for sustaining action or prosecuting violations occurring before the effective date of this Ordinance.

Section 8: Severability
If any section, subdivision, sentence, clause, phrase, or portion of this Ordinance is, for any reason, held invalid or unconstitutional by any court of competent jurisdiction, such portion shall be deemed a separate, distinct, and independent provision, and such holding shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions thereof.

Section 9: Mandatory Duty of Care

Page 42 ends

or without the City, so as to provide a basis of civil liability for damages, except as otherwise imposed by law.

Section 10: Effective Date
This Ordinance shall take effect thirty (30) days after its passage by the City Council and following the affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the City Council. Within 15 days of its adoption, a summary of the ordinance shall be published in a newspaper of general circulation in the City of Woodland, State of California, which summary shall include the names of those Council Members voting for and against the ordinance.

Measuring Distances.

1. Measurements are Shortest Distance. When measuring a required distance, such as the minimum distance between a structure and a lot line, the measurement is made at the closest or shortest distance between the two objects.

FIGURE 17.08.030.C-1: MEASURING DISTANCES

2. Distances are Measured Horizontally. When determining distances for setbacks and structure dimensions, all distances are measure d along a horizontal plane from the appropriate line, edge of building, structure, storage area, parking area, or other object. These distances are not measured by following the topography or slope of the land.

3. Measurements Involving a Structure. Measurements involving a structure are made to the closest support element of the structure. Structures or portions of structures that are entirely underground are not included in measuring required distances.

4. Measurement of Vehicle Stacking or Travel Areas. Measurement of a minimum travel distance for vehicles, such as garage entrance setbacks and stacking lane distances, are measured down the center of the vehicle travel area. For example, curving

Page 66 ends

Division I: General Provisions

Woodland Comprehensive Zoning Code | I-9
driveways and travel lanes are measured along the center arc of the driveway or traffic lane.

5. Measuring Distance Between Two Properties . When a specified land use is required to be located a minimum distance from another land use, the minimum distance is measured in a straight line from all points along the lot line of the subject project.

FIGURE 17.08. 030. C-2: MEASURING DISTANCES BETWEEN PROPERTIES Measuring Height.

1. Measuring Building Height.
a. Building height is measured from the average level of the highest and lowest point where the vertical plane of the exterior walls touches existing or finished grade, whichever is lower, to the highest point on the roof, the top of the parapet wall, the wall coping of a flat roof, or the deck line of a mansard roof.

FIGURE 17.08.030. D-1: MEASURING BUILDING HEIGHT
b. Exceptions. Chimneys, cupolas, spires, grain silos and towers, elevators, and rooftop equipment are not included in the building height.

2. Measuring Fence Height.
a. Fences at Grade. The height of any fence or wall is measured as the vertical distance from the average of the ground levels immediately adjacent to both sides of the fence or wall to the highest point of the fence or wall. b. Any fence or railing required by the California Building Code to exceed the maximum height is allowed.

FIGURE 17.08.030.D-2: MEASURING HEIGHT FENCES ON RETAINING WALLS

3. Measuring the Number of Stories in a Building. In measuring the height of a building in stories the following measurement rules shall apply:
a. A story means that portion of a building included between the surface of any floor and the surface of the floor next above, or if there is no floor above, the ceiling or roof above it.
b. A basement shall be counted as a full story if the vertical distance between the finished grade and the finished floor level directly above a basement or cellar is more than six feet at any point.
c. An interior balcony or mezzanine shall be counted as a full story if its floor area exceeds one-third of the total area of the nearest full floor directly below it or if it is enclosed on more than two sides.
d. A story of a commercial or residential building sh all not exceed 25 feet in height from the upper surface of the floor to the ceiling above. Industrial buildings are exempt from this standard.

FIGURE 17.08.030. D-3: MEASURING NUMBER OF STORIES IN A BUILDING

4. Measuring the Height of Decks. Deck height is determined by measuring from the ground to the top of the floor of the deck directly above the ground point.

Woodland Comprehensive Zoning Code | I-11
FIGURE 17.08.030.D-4: MEASURING THE HEIGHT OF DECKS
Measuring Lot Width and Depth.

1. Lot Width. Lot width is the horizontal distance between the side lot lines, measured at right angles to the lot depth at a point midway between the front and rear lot lines.

2. Lot Depth. Lot depth is measured along an imaginary straight line drawn from the midpoint of the front property line of the lot to the midpoint of the rear property line or to the most distant point on any o ther lot line where there is no rear lot line. See also definitions for lot line, front, rear and side in Chapter 17.136, Definitions of Terms.

FIGURE 17.08.030 .E-1: MEASURING LOT WIDTH AND DEPTH
Determining Average Slope. The average slope of a lot is calculated using the following formula: S = 100(I)(L)/A, where:

Page 69 ends

Division I: General Provisions

I-12 | Woodland Comprehensive Zoning Code
S = Average slope (in percent)
I = Contour interval (in feet)
L = Total length of all contour lines on the lot (in feet) A = Area of subject lot (in square feet)
Determining Floor Area. The floor area of a building is the sum of the gross horizontal areas of all floors of a building or other enclosed structure.

1. Included in Floor Ar ea. Floor area includes, but is not limited to, habitable space (as defined in the California Building Code) including basements and cellars that are below the roof and within the outer surface of the main walls of principal or accessory buildings or the centerlines of party walls separating such buildings or portions thereof or within lines drawn parallel to and two feet within the roof line of any building without walls. In the case of a multi -story building that has covered or enclosed stairways, stairwells or elevator shafts, the horizontal area of these features shall be counted only once at the floor level of their greatest area of horizontal extent.

2. Excluded from Floor Area. Floor area does not include mechanical, electrical, and communication equipment rooms that do not exceed two percent of the building’s gross floor area; bay windows or other architectural project ions where the vertical distance between the lowest surface of the projection and the finished floor is 30 inches or greater; areas that qualify as usable open space; and areas used for off - street parking spaces or loading spaces ; driveways; ramps between floors of a multi- level parking garage; and maneuvering aisles that are located below the finished grade of the property. Gross square floor area excludes areas of a building devoted to flood protection measures.

3. Nonresidential Uses. For nonresidential use s, gross floor area includes pedestrian access interior walkways or corridors, interior courtyards, walkways, paseos, or corridors covered by a roof or skylight. Nonresidential gross floor area does not include arcades, porticoes, and similar open areas th at are located at or near street level and are accessible to the general public but are not designed or used as sales, display, storage, service, or production areas.

Determining Floor Area Ratio. Floor area ratio (FAR) is the ratio of the floor area, excl uding the areas described below, of all principal and accessory buildings on a site to the site area.

To calculate FAR, floor area is divided by site area, and typically expressed as a decimal. For example, if the floor area of all buildings on a site tota ls 20,000 square feet, and the site area is 10,000 square feet, the FAR is expressed as 2.0.

1. Excluded from Floor Area in Calculating FAR.
a. Underground Areas. Floor area located below finished grade. b. Parking. Parking areas located below finished grade or beneath the finished floor of habitable space where the vertical distance between the finished floor of habitable space and finished grade is less than six feet.

Page 70 ends

Division I: General Provisions

Woodland Comprehensive Zoning Code | I-13
FIGURE 17.08.030 .H-1: DETERMINING FLOOR AREA RATIO

Determining Lot Coverage. Lot coverage is the ratio of the total footprint area of all structures on a lot to the net lot area, typically expressed as a percentage. The footprints of all principal and accessory structures, including garages, carports, covered patios, and roofed porches, shall be summed in order to calculate lot coverage. The following structures shall be excluded from the calculation:

1. Unenclosed and unroofed decks, uncovered patio slab, porches, landings, balconies , and stairways less than 30 inches in height;

2. Eaves and roof overhangs projecting up to 2.5 feet from a wall;

3. Fences, walls, and hedges;

4. Trellises and similar structures that have roofs that are at least 50 percent open to the sky through with uniformly distributed openings;

5. Swimming pools and hot tubs that are not enclosed in roofed structures or decks; and

6. One small, non-habitable accessory structure under 120 square feet and under seven feet high. Structures above quantity of one shall be included in lot coverag e.

Division I: General Provisions

I-14 | Woodland Comprehensive Zoning Code
FIGURE 17.08.030.I-1: DETERMINING LOT COVERAGE
Determining Lot Frontage. The lot frontage is the line separating the lot from the street right- of-way.

1. Corner Lots. In the case of a corner lot, the applicant may choose which street he or she shall designate as the front of the lot , subject to approval by the Director and the Fire Department. It is recommended that any driveway be located on the less traveled street in most cases. Once the choice of frontage has been made, it cannot be changed unless all requirements for yard space are complied with. The lot frontage shall provide primary ingress/egress to the front door/primary entrance unless otherwise approved by the Director and the Fire Department.

2. Through Lot. In the case of a through lot, the lot frontage is the line that abuts the street of primary access (e.g., driveway access) to the lot.

FIGURE 17.08.030. J-1: THROUGH LOTS

Page 72 ends

Division I: General Provisions

Woodland Comprehensive Zoning Code | I-15
Determining Required Setbacks. A line defining a required setback is parallel to and at the specified distance from the corresponding front, side, or rear property line. The following special regulations for determining setbacks when a lot abuts a proposed street or alley .

Required setbacks shall be unobstructed from the ground to the sky except where allowed in compliance with Section 17.64.060, Projections into Required Setbacks, subject to compliance with the California Building Code, or as otherwise allowed in this Code.

1. Required Setbacks on Alleys.
a. If a side lot line abuts an alley, the side abutting the alley shall be considered an interior side rather than a corner side.
b. In calculating the required setback for any lot abutting an alley or private driveway, no part of the width of the alley or private driveway may be considered as part of the required setback.

2. Setbacks Abutting Planned Street Expansions. If a property abuts an existing or proposed street for which the existing right -of-way is narrower than the right -of-way ultimately required for the street, the required setback shall be established from the edge of the future right-of-way.

Measuring Yards. Yards shall be measured as the distance between the nearest lot line and the closest point on the exterior of a building or structure along a line at right angles to the lot line.

FIGURE 17.08.030.L-1: MEASURING YARDS
Measuring Signs. The calculation of measurements related to signs are described in Section

17.24.010 Purpose and Applicability
The purpose of this Chapter is to provide for the development of residential dwellings that are suitable to the character of Woodland ’s residential neighborhoods while allowing for neighborhood services that meet the daily needs of residents. Additional purposes of each zone are described below.

A. Low-Density Residential (R -L). The R -L zone is intended to accommodate primarily low- density housing with private yards and private parking ; to provide space for community facilities needed to complement urban residential areas and for institutions which require a residential environment. The R -L zone implements areas of the Low Density Residential General Plan land use designation.

B. Neighborhood Preservation (N-P). The purpose of th e N-P zone is to stabilize and protect the established diverse character of older, predominately residential neighborhoods, where a mix of housing types and other uses exist. These areas are along the fringes of the Downtown zones and are characterized by homes generally constructed prior to 1940. This zone is intended to be applied to those areas designated Low Density Residential in the General Plan.

This zone is intended to provide space for community facilities needed to complement urban residential areas and for institutions which require a residential environment.

C. Residential Low-Medium (R-LM). The R-LM zone is intended to provide a variety of housing types with a compatible mixture of low and medium density housing ; to provide space for community facilities needed to complement urban residential areas and for institutions which require a residential environment. The R-LM zone implements areas of the Medium-Low- Medium Density Residential General Plan land use designation.

D. Residential Medium (R-M). The R-M zone is intended to provide residential areas which can accommodate a suitable mixture of more intensive land uses, including multiple -unit dwellings, community facilities, and limited commercial and office uses compatible with the surrounding area. The R -M zone also accommodates a range of detached and attached housing types including triplexes, fourplexes, and townhomes. The R-M zone implements the Medium Density Residential General Plan land use designation.

E. Residential High (R-H). The R-H zone is intended to accommodate a mix of higher density multi-unit development types including rowhouses and stacked flats (apartments or condominiums). Units can be contained in single structures or in a collection of cohesive structures with common open spaces and amenities. Multi -story structures are intended to

include centrally located parking in order to provide urban intensity at locations within easy walking distance to transit, recreation, and community facilities. In addition, ancillary commercial uses as well as medical and professio nal offices may be allowed when found to be compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. The R -H zone implements the High Density Residential General Plan land use designation.

17.24.020 Use Regulations
Table 17.24.020-1, Use Regulations – Residential Zones, lists the uses permitted, permitted with a staff- level Zoning Administrator Permit (see Section 17.100.140, Zoning Administrator Permit) , and permitted with a Conditional Use Permit (see Section 17.100.100, Conditional Use Permit) granted at a public heari ng.

17.28.010 Purpose and Applicability
The purpose of this Chapter is to provide for the development of a range of uses suitable to the character of Downtown Woodland. Additional purposes of each zone are described below.

A. Downtown Core (DX -1). The Downtown Core z one is intended to support a diverse mix of offices, housing, and active u ses such as theaters, retail, professional services, restaurants, and entertainment in Woodland’s historic downtown core. The zone envisions primarily a vertical mix of uses that support a vibrant district centered on Main Street. The DX-1 zone implements areas of the Downtown Mixed Use General Plan land use designation.

B. Downtown Civic (DX-2). The Downtown Civic zone is intended to support a mix of public uses and offices, housing, retail, professional services, and open space in the Court Street corridor of Woodland’s historic downtown core. The zone envisions both vertical and horizontal mix of uses that support a vibrant and walkable civic -oriented downtown district. The DX -2 zone implements areas of the Downtown Mixed Use General Plan land use designation.

C. Downtown Transitional (DX -3). The Downtown Transitional z one is intended to support a mix of offices, housing, and active uses on the edges of Woodland’s historic downtown core.

Centered on the Lincoln Avenue and North Str eet corridors, th is zone provides a transition from the downtown core to the residential neighborhoods north and south of the zone. The zone supports vertical and horizontal mixed -use development with a lower intensity urban feel that provides walkable transition to the residential neighborhoods to the north and south.

The DX -3 zone implements areas of the Downtown Mixed Use General Plan land use designation.

D. Downtown Gateway (DX -4). The Downtown Gateway z one supports a vibrant mixed -use node at the primary entry point to Woodland’s historic downtown core. Centered on Main Street between 5 th Street and East Street, the DX-4 zone facilitates a mix of uses and open spaces that welcome residents and visitors to the Downtown, that intensify opportunity areas abutting the railroad, and that ensure appropriate transitions to the corridor, downtown, and residential areas. The DX-4 zone implements areas of the Downtown Mixed Use General Plan land use designation.

The purpose of this Chapter is to provide for the development of a range of uses suitable to the character of Woodland’s corridors. Additional purposes of each zone are described below.

A. Corridor Mixed-Use-West Main (CMU -WM). West of Downtown, the C orridor Mixed-Use- West Main Zone is a mixed -use corridor intended to accommodate residential infill and neighborhood-serving retail. The residential density and intensity of non-residential uses are intended to give the corridor a n urban character and revitalize and replace older strip commercial develo pment. Residential, retail, commercial service, and office uses are permitted in a horizontal or vertical mixed -use setting to enhance the streetscape. The CMU- WM zone implements the Corridor Mixed-use General Plan land use designation.

B. Corridor Mixed-Use-East (CMU -E). The Corridor Mixed-Use-East z one facilitates the revitalization of the auto-oriented East Street corridor. Supporting a mix of uses , the zone permits a flexibility of design intended to enhance the urban character and streetscape of the corridor. Residential, retail, commercial service, office, and light industrial uses are permitted in a horizontal or vertical mixed-use configuration. The CMU-E zone implements the Corridor Mixed-use General Plan land use designation.

C. Corridor Mixed-Use-Kentucky (CMU -K). The Corridor Mixed-Use-Kentucky z one accommodates a mix of uses including service and light industrial uses. Residential uses are allowed on the south side of Kentucky. The zone allows this area to continue to function as an agriculture-industrial corridor while sensitively integrating new, mixed -use development to activate specific sections of the corridor. The CMU-K zone implements the Corridor Mixed-use General Plan land use designation.

D. Corridor Mixed-Use-Armfield (CMU-A). The Corridor Mixed -Use-Armfield zone supports a mix of uses similar to the CMU-E zone and permits a flexibility of design intended to enhance the urban character and streetscape o f the area with residential, retail, commercial service, and office, uses in a horizontal or vertical mixed-use configuration while providing appropriate transitions and buffers between newer higher intensity uses and existing single family residential uses. The CMU-A zone implements the Corridor Mixed -use General Plan land use designation.

E. Corridor Mixed -Use-Flex (CMU -F). The Corridor Mixed -Use-Flex z one supports a sensitive transition between the North East Street corridor and the industrial areas to the east. Like the

CMU-E zone, it facilitates the revitalization of the auto-oriented East Street corridor and supports a mix of uses to enhance the urban character and streetscape of the corridor , with residential, retail, commercial service, office, and light industrial uses in a horizontal or vertical mixed-use configuration. Smaller-scale custom, light industrial and artisan manufacturing are allowed to add flexibility and vitality to the corridor. The CMU-F zone implements the Corridor Mixed-use General Plan land use designation.

F. Community Commercial Mixed-Use (CCMU). The Community Commercial Mixed-Use zone is intended to support commercial development that serves local neighborhoods as well as the rest of the City but does not regularly attract regional, visitor, or pass-through traffic. Uses in this zone include retail, services, grocery stores, restaurants, professional offices, hotels, and similar commercial uses , as well as higher density housing and mixed-use development.

The CCMU zone implements the Community Commercial General Plan land use designation.

G. Neighborhood Mixed-Use (NMU). The Neighborhood Mixed-Use zone supports commercial development that meets the needs of local neighborhoods. Uses in this zone include smaller- scale retail, grocery stores , office, and service -oriented businesses, as well as higher density housing and mixed -use development . The NMU zone implements the Neighborhood Commercial General Plan land use designation.

H. Corridor Mixed -Use-Gateway (CMU -G). The Corridor Mixed -Use-Gateway zone, located along an important north -south corridor, is envisioned by the General Plan to support a mix of uses including retail , medical services, offices, business park development and housing.

The zone allows for vertical and horizontal mixed -use development. The CMU -G zone implements the Corridor Mixed-use General Plan land use designation.

17.44.010 Purpose and Applicability
The purpose of this Chapter is to provide civic spaces throughout the City to properly serve the needs of residents and provide open space to recreate and conserve natural habitats. Additional purposes of each zone are described below.

A. Public Facilities/Institutional (PF). The Public Facilities/Institutional zone provides for public and quasi -public facilities such as colle ges, schools, hospitals, penal institutions, libraries, museums, government offices and courts, places of worship, meeting halls, cemeteries and mausoleums, and similar uses. It also includes public facilities such as fire and police stations, recycling ce nters, and waste -water treatment. The PF zone implements the Public/Quasi Public General Plan land use designation.

B. Open Space (OS). The Open Space zone provides for public parks, agricultural uses, outdoor recreational and equestrian uses, habitat protect ion, irrigation canals, reservoirs, watershed management, and natural recreation viewing areas typically limited for human occupation due to public health and safety hazards or areas containing wildlife habitat and other environmentally sensitive features. The OS zone implements the Open Space General Plan land use designation.

C. Flood Study Area (FSA). The Flood Study Area zone is applied to areas restricted from urban development due to health and safety concerns related to flood risk, or because the property falls within a likely future flood project improvement area. Allowed uses include open space, as well as low -intensity agriculture or recreational uses. Generally, land uses that require extensive capital improvements or permanent infrastructure impro vements shall be prohibited, except for improvements related to flood protection and control. Existing structures and business operations in areas designated as Flood Study Area Zone may remain but may not expand. The FSA zone implements the Flood Study Ar ea General Plan land use designation.
