§ 12-202. TOD Transit-Oriented Development Districts.
The purpose of TOD Transit-Oriented Development Zoning Districts is to encourage the location of uses and forms of development conducive to increased transit usage. These Districts are intended to promote new, well-integrated residential and commercial development around transit stations, to ensure that new development occurs in the form of compatible, higher density, transit-friendly design in close proximity to transit systems, to encourage a pedestrian-orientation in new development, to decrease reliance on motor vehicles by increasing transit uses, and to encourage a mix of buildings and activities that provides settings for social interaction and active community life. In order to address the different characteristics of transit locations within the City, 4 TOD Districts are established: the TOD-1 District, TOD-2 District, TOD-3 District and the TOD-4 District. The primary distinctions among these 4 TOD Districts are height, residential density, and use mix.
