*User’s Manual – How to Use the Transit Supportive Development Regulations:

1. Determine the proposed uses that will, or may, be part of your development.

2. Using the table in RCDG 20D.240.20-010, determine what requirements, if any, apply to your development. They depend on the proposed uses. Single-family homes and one single duplex have no requirements. Incorporate the applicable requirements into your design.

3. Determine whether the proposed development is on a Green Street. Comprehensive Plan Map N-OV-3 shows the Green Streets identified in the Overlake Neighborhood. At present Green Streets are only applied to the Overlake Neighborhood.

4. If located on a Green Street, incorporate those requirements into your design.
