General intent and purpose.
Chandler City Code § 35-3301
in effect35-3301. - General intent and purpose.
1.) Under state law (A.R.S. § 9-462.01-D, and as amended from time to time), municipalities may adopt overlay zoning districts and regulations applicable to buildings, structures and land within individual zones. An overlay zoning district is a special zoning district that includes regulations which modify regulations in another zoning district with which the overlay district is combined.
2.) The purpose of the Adaptive Reuse Overlay District is to encourage and facilitate the reuse of existing buildings that are underutilized or underperforming within portions of the City by:
a. Modifying site development standards that would otherwise make the reuse of existing buildings, structures and sites economically unfeasible; and
b. Reducing, simplifying or eliminating the processes otherwise required to modify existing building, structures and sites; and
c. Providing clear, understandable, predictable and consistent development standards that promote compatibility between existing and future development; and
d. Facilitating development proposals that are responsive to current and future market conditions.
