Zoning signs in Underwood Hills

2/14/2023

In case you are wondering about the blue city zoning signs going in, they are for the Upper Westside Zoning Overlay. The Overlay, which UHNA reviewed back in July, is currently going through the city adoption process. State statute requires that zoning signs must go up evenly across the whole Overlay boundary. To confirm, the Overlay excludes single family residential properties (zoning categories R1-R5). 

As a quick recap, the Overlay is proposed for commercial and multifamily properties in Underwood Hills and its surrounding neighborhoods. The overlay is designed to bring consistency to the zoning standards to meet the community's vision from the Upper Westside Masterplan of a vibrant, walkable, bikeable, and safe place for residents, businesses, and visitors. 


An overlay is a supplemental set of zoning regulations which layer on top of the underlying zoning of a property. The proposed Upper Westside overlay proposes to add supplemental zoning parameters, from which single-family residential properties are excluded, to help achieve the community’s vision. 
The types of zoning regulations proposed include:
  • Bans billboards, concrete plants, used car sales, pawn shops, etc.
  • Restrictions on gas stations and drive-throughs.
  • Streetscape and open space upgrades that conform to the Masterplan and other City plans.
  • Transportation upgrades, including establishing block size standards, access management policies, bus stop improvements, and more.
  • Urban design standards that address building design, site layout, and more.
  • Review procedures that engage the CID and affected NPUs early on in the planning process.
