1 Urban Sustainability Area Designation City of Santa Cruz October 2013 The City of Santa Cruz Urban Sustainability Area (USA) encompasses the City s business centers and primary transportation corridors where the City s General Plan 2030 vision is to promote Smart Growth concepts of high-density mixed-use development. Social and Environmental Benefits of the USA The City s Urban Sustainability Area will support a variety of social and environmental benefits by providing economic opportunities and affordable housing while limiting the footprint of development, increasing opportunities for alternative transportation, and protecting open space areas. The Urban Sustainability Area will promote development patterns that support the following environmental benefits: Smaller impervious development footprint per capita, which leads to lower runoff volumes per capita and reduced water quality impacts Reduced air and water pollution due to reduced automobile travel and increased use of alternative transportation (e.g. public transit, biking, walking) Protection of open space by focusing development in already-built areas The Urban Sustainability Area will also promote the following important social benefits: Provision of affordable housing for middle-income families that can live and work in Santa Cruz. Increased public safety by having mixed-use commercial and residential areas Revitalization of urban core areas by promoting redevelopment of blighted and underutilized areas Delineation of the Urban Sustainability Area The Urban Sustainability Area corresponds to areas of the City identified in the General Plan 2030 as community and regional business centers and primary transportation corridors where higher density mixed-use development is encouraged (see Figure 1). These areas are designated as: Community Commercial (CM), Regional Visitor Commercial (RVC), Mixed-Use Medium Density (MXMD), Mixed-Use High Density (MXHD), and Mixed-Use Visitor Commercial (MXVC) in the City s General Plan Land Use Map (see Appendix A). The General Plan areas included in the Urban Sustainability Area are described below: Major Corridors The Soquel, Water, Ocean, River and Mission Street corridors are considered suitable for medium to high density apartments in addition to medium density commercial that would support Smart Growth. The City s General Plan 2030 created Mixed-Use development designations that are located in focal centers along Santa Cruz s major transit corridors. Because these transit corridors also supply much of the city s commercial land, the mixed-use designations afford additional opportunities 1

2 for the city s residents to live near their workplace. Additionally, all commercial designations along these corridors allow mixed-use developments that provide permanent residential dwelling units. Urban Center and Regional Visitor Commercial. Areas that emphasize a variety of commercial uses that serve Santa Cruz residents as well as visitors. Mixed-use development is strongly encouraged in the urban center and regional visitor commercial districts. These areas include: Downtown Santa Cruz. Emphasizes a mix of regional office and retail uses, residential and mixed-use developments, restaurants, and visitor attractions such as entertainment venues. The Downtown Recovery Plan provides detailed requirements for this area. South of Laurel.

For the purpose of the Post-Construction Requirements, redevelopment is defined as construction or installation of a building or other structure subject to planning and building authority on a site that was previously developed including: 1) the creation or addition of impervious surfaces; 2) the expansion of a building footprint or addition or replacement of a structure; or 3) structural development including construction, installation or expansion of a building or other structure.
