You are invited to learn more about the Richmond Livable Corridors Form-Based Code and provide your input. The new code was drafted for the Central Richmond PDA in 2015-2016 to implement Richmond General Plan 2030 and encourage mixed-use and residential infill development improves the public realm along major corridors.
To further enhance the downtown area and secure its future as a social, cultural and entertainment destination, form-based code will ensure that new development fits with the scale and character of the historic commercial uses and improve the public realm with a good relationship between street, sidewalk, and building. This will be accomplished while enabling additional housing, providing more affordable choices to meet a significant local need and help bring additional residents to support a walkable, vibrant downtown community.
The regulations and standards in form-based codes are presented in both words and clearly drawn diagrams and other visuals to help property owners and the public. They are keyed to a regulating plan that designates the appropriate form, scale and character of development, rather than only distinctions in land-use types. They will help implement a community plan for North Bend and also enliven the downtown area with buildings and a built form that relates well to existing uses, facilitates a lively pedestrian environment, and secures the downtown as the cultural and economic heart of the City.
Other complexities form-based code could alleviate include floodplain development, underutilized spaces, parking, walkability, lack of transit, viewsheds, density concerns, noise, compatibility of developments.
Ground-floors of buildings shall be occupied by retail, office, service, and other active uses along commercial corridors. Upper floors and back spaces from streetscape should include a wide variety of uses, including office, housing, and lodging.
Buildings may be occupied with ground floor retail, office, service, and other active uses. Residential uses on the ground floor should, where permitted off North Bend Way, have frontages ensuring privacy for the units. Units shall be accessed directly from the street, unless determined infeasible due to specific site constraints. Upper floors and back spaces from streetscape should include a wide variety of uses, including office, housing, lodging.
A form-based code is a land development regulation that fosters predictable built results and a high-quality public realm by using physical form, rather than separation of uses, as the organizing principle for the code.
If your property is located in the Downtown Commercial (DC) zone, the requirements for development or redevelopment have changed. The primary requirements are located in the regulating plan which can be found HERE. The City's Form-based Code gives clear direction about what is expected for building types and building frontage types for each area within the DC zone. Additionally, building setback and multi-story step backs have changes with the approved code.
The BOC was enacted in 2003. It was effective as of January 1, 2006 though it provided a transition period during which some entities were governed by the BOC and others were governed by the statutes under which they were formed. However, as of January 1, 2010, the old statutes were repealed, and the BOC now governs all entities.
No. The secretary of state cannot provide copies of the Texas Business Organizations Code or any other statutes. Statutes can be found in law libraries or accessed at Texas Legislature Online. Paper copies may be obtained from legal publishers.
For general information, please visit our BOC Information Page, email us, or call us at (512) 463-5555. For specific advice, including whether your governing documents comply with the BOC, consult your private attorney.
As of January 1, 2010, the Texas Business Organizations Code automatically became applicable to most types of filing entities. For more information about how this change may affect your entity, please see our Texas Business Organizations Code (BOC) FAQs.
An icon of the industrial age, Cleveland is pivoting to its new future: a green city on a blue lake. This direction has been set by the administration with the directive to leave no neighborhood behind. New buildings and new residents are rejuvenating long dormant portions of the city at an ever quickening pace. The rebuilding of these neighborhoods with modern housing, retail, office and industrial spaces have laid bare the need for new development policies and tools that support 21st century development trends. One of the development tools will be the strategic implementation of a new zoning code that fosters sustainable development patterns and addresses the challenges Cleveland faces in the 21st century.
For more than 80 years, the Cleveland zoning code has served the city and its residents well. The zoning code responded to the challenges of its time by protecting and separating residential areas from the ill effects of neighboring factories, managing the reality of a populace in love with the automobile and providing for greenspace in a rapidly developing city. The city has moved on from some of these issues, some remain relevant and some challenges are entirely new. Through noble attempts to respond to changing patterns of development since its adoption in 1929, the zoning code has become layered and cumbersome to navigate. In many ways, the zoning code is at odds with the vision of what Cleveland will be in the 21st century.
We are pleased to announce that we have completed a draft of the Pilot Form Based Code project and corresponding draft zoning maps for public viewing. This code will help Cleveland foster a community built around healthy walkable neighborhoods, alternative modes of transportation and a diversity of housing options. The organizing principle of a FBC is how people interact with the form of a place, rather than the uses in that place. The result is the dynamic city experience that draws new residents and businesses to the City.
The Planning Commission is hosting community workshops for the Detroit Shoreway/ Cudell neighborhood and the Hough neighborhood. The events will feature a "refresher" on Form Based code and a presentation of the draft Form Based Code as well as the draft maps for the Detroit Shoreway/ Cudell neighbrhood and the Hough Neighborhood. The events are being held on the following days:
Let's start by exploring the House 4 District which is the primary residential district used in the Hough and Detroit Shoreway Neighborhoods. Think of each district as its own 'mini-code' with its own set of permitted uses, height limits and setback requirements, etc. In the House 4 District up to four units are permitted on each lot. However the form that these units will take will look like the scale of the existing context. That is to say, new buildings in this district can be no more than 32' tall and not more than 2.5 stories. Minimum lot widths, requirements for street facing windows and doors and requirements for where parking is located will help new buildings feel like they fit into the neighborhood. Below is a video that explains in more detail how the requirements of the House 4 District work.
Next let's take a look at the Urban Node 5 (UN5) District. During the Detroit/Shoreway charrette week the sites that flank the Detroit/Lake intersection were a hotly discussed topic. There was a consensus that getting the zoning and the buildings on these sites correctly scaled and situated was critically important to the future of the neighborhood. With the closure of the Burger King and the vacant lots on the south side of Detroit, changes to this intersection may be coming faster than anyone thought. The UN5 reflects the vision of residents who wanted new buildings placed close to the street with active uses along the sidewalk and parking located either in the rear or in shared, district lots thoughtfully placed throughout the neighborhood. The UN5 does all of those things. The district calls for mixed-use buildings with minimal setbacks along the street and large amounts of transparent windows and doors along the sidewalk. Buildings here can be up to 5 stories tall. Below is a video that describes in more detail the UN5 District.
