(Added by Ord. No. 4455/8-96.)


IV.   DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS

 

 

A.   Minimum Lot Size

The Standards of Section 137 shall apply.

 

B.   Minimum Lot Width and Depth

The Standards of Section 137 shall apply.

 

C.   Minimum and Maximum Residential Densities and Ancillary Dwelling Units

The Standards of Section 137 shall apply except that:

1.  For purposes of calculating net acreage, residential density and floor area ratio:

 

a) Within the SCC-SC District, gross acreage deductions shall be allowed to accommodate protection and enhancement of Willow Creek and Beaverton Creek tributaries.

b) (Deleted by Ord. No. 6018/6-12.)

D.   Minimum Floor Area Ratios

The Standards of Section 137 shall apply, except that:

 

1. A deduction for a riparian buffer up to two hundred feet (200') in width adjacent to Bronson Creek shall be allowed from the gross acreage of the site when calculating Floor Area Ratios for lots or parcels abutting the creek.

 

E. Minimum Non-Residential Density Objectives

The Standards of Section 137 shall apply.

 

F. Minimum and Maximum Setbacks from Streets and Alleys

The Standards of Section 137 shall apply.

 

G. Vision Clearance

The Standards of Section 137 shall apply.

 

H. Minimum and Maximum Building Height Requirements

The Standards of Section 137 shall apply.

 

I. Minimum and Maximum Off-Street Parking Requirements

The Standards of Section 137 shall apply.

 

J. Minimum Usable Open Space Requirements

The Standards of Section 137 shall apply, except that:

 

1. At the option of the applicant, the whole of the Bronson Creek and Rock Creek, and up to two hundred feet (200') of upland area measured from top of bank may be counted towards fulfillment of the usable open space requirements provided that appropriate viewing areas and pathways make the area accessible to the public.

  

Where ORPRC, or a subsequent applicant can demonstrate that public access to a particular section of this open space would unnecessarily compromise the security of its research or animal colony, or, where OGI or a subsequent applicant can demonstrate that public access to any section of this open space would irreparably damage or compromise wetland research conducted by OGI; or a property owner or appropriate public agency can demonstrate that encroachment would damage or interfere with measures being carried out to enhance the area for wildlife or wetland purposes, prohibition of the public from such limited areas shall not preclude the applicant from attributing the area to usable open space under the definitional criteria contained in Section 136.III.

 

K. Minimum Landscaping Requirements

The Standards of Section 137 shall apply except that

 

1. Because AmberGlen Business Park was substantially developed prior to the effective date of this ordinance; and because it has a significant and uniform landscape design which includes an established street tree pattern, shrubbery, curb landscape strips and other landscape features, an exception is warranted. Provided the landscaping program remains consistent with the intent of Section 138, AmberGlen need not disrupt their program in future development projects within the park by having to adhere to the specific placement and plant selection requirements of Section 138. This exception does not reduce the required amount of usable open space.

 

L. Mixed Use Buildings and Mixed Use Mid-Rise Apartments

The Standards of Section 137 shall apply.

 

M. Sidewalks

The Standards of Section 137 shall apply except that

 

1. In recognition of security concerns within the ORPRC campus, certain sidewalks may be restricted to be private pedestrian ways open only to authorized personnel. However, the provisions of Section 136.VII.A.2 regarding pedestrian connections to light rail transit stations and other public facilities and areas shall apply.

 

N. Street and Alley Standards

The Standards of Section 137 shall apply except:

 

1. The collector street running east from 206 th Avenue generally parallel to the property line between ORPRC and AmberGlen Business Park and continuing on to a connection with Salix Terrace, and running west from 206 th generally parallel to the southern property line of AmberView PUD and continuing on the same general line to a connection at Cornelius Pass Road shall:

 

(a) Be constructed within a right-of-way at least sixty-six feet (66') in width to accommodate a minimum of:

 

i) two eleven foot (11') travel lanes;

 

ii) two six foot (6') bicycle lanes;

 

iii) two five foot (5') sidewalks each with a back of curb landscape strip at least four feet (4') in width; and

 

iv) an eleven foot (11') left turn lane, median strip, or combination thereof as proposed by the applicant, supported by the traffic impact report, and approved by the City Engineer. With the approval of the Planning Director and the City Engineer, where a continuous landscaped median would occupy the center lane for lengths greater than four hundred feet (400'), the width of the planted median strip may be reduced to not less than six feet (6') in those areas.

 

(b) be designed so as to narrow to two travel lanes plus two combined AASHTO Standard pedestrian/bikeways on that portion of the roadway approaching and over the bridge spanning the Bronson Creek and wetlands.

 

 

(c) be dedicated with two eight foot (8') public utility easements either side of the right-of-way the requirement of which is dependent on public and private utility design and routing;

(d) be signalized, as warranted, at intersections as shown in the final DKS Traffic Study;

 

 

(e) be built generally along the alignment described and mapped in the final DKS Traffic Study, including, with County approval, the outlets shown in the DKS mapping to Walker Road , 185 th at Parr Lumber, Holly Street , and Heritage Court before connecting to Salix Terrace adjacent to the 185 th /Willow Creek LRT Station. Further, the alignment shall be north of the AmberGlen-ORPRC property line completely on AmberGlen property from 206 th Avenue east to AmberGlen Parkway after which point it shall transition to the south side of said property line and continue east completely on ORPRC property. Finally, the alignment from Holly to Salix Terrace prepared by CH2M Hill ("Preferred Option B," CH2M Hill Technical Memorandum 1/29/97 ) on behalf of ORPRC is an acceptable alternative to the alignment recommended in the DKS study done for the City. Either alignment in this area shall be considered consistent with the Comprehensive Transportation Plan Functional Classification Map without need for further amendment and shall be finalized as part of the ORPRC Concept Development Plan approval process or at the time of Development Review for any project proposed on Tax Lot 1N2 36 3601.

 

(f) be, at the option of the property owner, a substitute for or supplement to Gibbs Road as shown in the AmberGlen Business Park Master Plan and approved PUD; and

(g) be constructed of Portland Cement Concrete to a sufficient engineering cross-sectional standard to accommodate normal bus loading between the current northerly terminus of Salix Terrace and its connection to the Heritage Street extension from 185 th Avenue, and be constructed of either Portland Cement Concrete or Asphaltic Concrete to a sufficient standard in all other areas to withstand frequent use by medium sized shuttle buses and the traffic volumes projected in the DKS Traffic Report.

 

2. AmberGlen Parkway shall be extended from its intersection with 205 th Avenue as a Collector street. The cross-section shall match the existing segment already constructed within the AmberGlen Business Park . This road shall be considered the main north-south bicycle route from the Quatama LRT Station to neighborhoods to the north.

 

3. 206 th Avenue north of its intersection with the realigned 205 th Avenue transition, shall be classified a Collector street, with left turn refuges at appropriate intersections as identified in the DKS Traffic Study.

 

4. Future improvement of 205 th Avenue south of Quatama to Baseline Road shall be constructed as a five-lane arterial street except that the cross-section shall eliminate the continuous left turn lane/median and shall combine the bicycle lane and sidewalk on each side to reduce the width and environmental impact of a new bridge crossing of Beaverton Creek and the adjacent wetland area.

 

5. Quatama Road west of 205 th Avenue shall be constructed as a Collector.

 

O. Lot Access

The Standards of Section 137 shall apply.
