PD11: Mixed Use

(1-20 points)

Purpose

Promote a walkable neighborhood with links to a mix of goods and services.

Criteria

Locate the area of highest density (residential) within a ¼-mile walkable distance of nonresidential uses listed below by providing the uses on site and/or designing the community near off-site uses. OR

Determine the Walk Score of the area of highest density. Walk Scores of greater than 30 will achieve the following points:

Walk Score	Points
30-40	7
41-50	11
51-60	12
61-70	13
71-80	14
81-90	15
91-98	16
98-100	17

Off-site mixes uses

If multiple facilities provide the same use, the use can only be counted once. Different uses in subdivided commercial space with distinct leases or ownership will be counted as different uses.

On-site mixed uses

Credit for distinct uses from the list below may be gained if on-site building use is specified in a signed lease. Otherwise, for every 5,000 ft2 of on-site non-residential space, the project is awarded 1 point. Non-residential square footage is determined by the square footage of the building site pad and permitted site plans.
