SECTION 3.4. ACTIVITY CENTER DISTRICTS
General Purposes of Activity Center Districts
3.4.1.
The activity center districts established in this section are intended to foster compact, mixed-use development patterns that provide people with the opportunity to live, work, recreate, and shop in a pedestrian-friendly environment. More specifically, they are intended to: A. Provide strong connections between diverse uses to create a busier, safer, and more exciting environment for residents, employees, and visitors throughout the day, in evenings, and during weekends; B. Encourage a complementary mix of residential, retail, office, employment-generating, and recreation uses in close proximity to each other; C. Accommodate development intensities appropriate to the scale of the area served by the activity center (e.g., neighborhood, community, region); D. Provide integrated pedestrian and bicycle access to afford safe and accessible foot and bike travel between the land uses; and E. Facilitate efficient vehicular traffic flow by allowing only land uses developed with comprehensively planned access, egress, and internal circulation systems.
