Proposed standards address features including walkability, public frontage requirements, incentives for middle-density housing types, parking location and screening, landscape and buffering, useable open space, neighborhood transitions, roof form, building modulation, standards for major commercial corridors, ground floor design, architectural detail, building materials and lighting.
