Attachment J. Master Plan Compliance with MX Zoning

Purpose. The purpose of the Mixed-Use Districtis to encourage the development of a compatiblemixture of land uses which may includeresidential, retail, offices, recreationalentertainment, research oriented light industrial,water oriented or other related uses. Thecompatibility and interaction between mixed usesis to be insured through adoption of Master Plan(defined in subsection 30-4.20f) and developmentplan site plan (defined in subsection 30- 20h),which indicated proper orientation desirabledesign character and compatible land uses toprovide for:

The City Council may approve, by ordinance, aMaster Plan of mixed uses where each phasethereof provides for Open Space District uses(subsection 30-4.l9b. and c.) together with atleast two (2) other uses which are penntted either: (i) R- I or R-2 districts , (ii) R-6 districts(iii) A-P districts , (iv) C-I or C-2 districts , or(v) CoM districts (of this article) and whichotherwise meets the requirements set out

The proposed Master Plan wil be consistent with the GeneralPlan upon adoption of Attachment C- General PlanAmendments , Attachment E- General Plan, Chapter 9 andAttachment F- Community Plan.

See Attachment No. 6-Qualifications of Development Team

See Chapter 3 (Land Use).

The Alameda Point property has been carefully designed torespond to the comments received during public workshopsand from City boards, commssions and staff. Unique landuse districts have been created in response to such input. Toimplement the design of the land use plan, greater flexibility isneeded to create unique land use districts for the site.Attachment G. l. provides amendments to Section 30-4.20d.to allow the City Council the necessary flexibilty. SeeAttachment K- Master Plan and Phasing Map.

The provisions of subsection 30- 13h. and i.through n. shall apply to MX Districts.

Streets and OtherTrans ortation Facilities.

All streets, other than waysused for access to garages orparking areas, shall bededicated unless the PlannngBoard determnes that privatestreets are a necessaryarrangement in the design of

the planed development andthe covenants and conditionsinclude a provision that theCity may repair streets and/orrequire dedication at a laterdate if streets are notmaintained.

The Planning Board mayrequire the dedication of anywalkway, bicycle path, orother transportation facilitywithin a Planned Developmentif such dedication appears to

be in the public interest.

See Section 5.2 (Public Street System). Developer intends todedicate all streets to the City upon completion in accordancewith subdivision requirements, approval of the Public WorksDepartment and acceptance; provided that, as noted in Section

, alleys may be privately owned.
