§ 3.05.00. Town Center Design Guidelines.

(a)

The Town Center Design Guidelines prepared by Canin Associates and dated July 2004, are hereby adopted and incorporated herein by reference.

(b)

The July 2004 Town Center Design Guidelines adopted herein are modified as follows: page 10, under the heading, building height, lines 2 through 5 are hereby stricken. Also, the drawings illustrating a balcony and "jumba" located in the middle of the page are modified to include the notation "35' Max. Height" with a line indicating the distance from the ground to the highest portion of the illustrated structures. See the following exhibit A in subsections (b)(1) and (2):

(1)

Balconies. For the protection of pedestrians on the storefront level, a cantilevered balcony may be carefully substituted for an awning or canopies in some situations. This balcony cantilevered at the second level acts as a shading device for the storefront below. It may be incorporated as an expression line. The design principles for balconies include the following:

a.

This device lends itself to short-length applications of less than 50 feet of frontage. The balcony will appear ill-proportioned if used in long unbroken applications.

b.

The cantilevered balcony should project no more that five feet from the principal facade. The balcony may encroach upon the public right-of-way, but shall project no closer than 18 inches from the face of the curb.

c.

The balcony may be supported structurally or visually by decorative brackets or angle supports. These supports should be positioned so that they do not interfere with the free movement of pedestrians on the sidewalk.

Balcony

Jumba

d.

The cantilevered balcony may be roofed or framed by columns. In special, limited applications, balcony space could be enclosed to form a "jumba," but such enclosures require a special, site specific design approval by the town. A jumba may no exceed 15 feet in length.

(2)

Building height. Maximum two-story is 35 feet in height.

a.

Encroachment. Building elements that are attached to a building are permitted to exist within a front or side street setback. Typical building elements include balconies, porches, arcades and other architectural elements that are intended to bring the public realm closer to the street.

b.

Build-to line. The build-to line is the line where the facade of the main building or structure must be placed.

c.

Permitted encroachments. Balconies, colonnades, arcades, jumbas.
