b. Pedestrian walkways shall connect building entrances to one another and from building
entrances to public streets and existing or planned transit facilities. On-site walkways shall
connect with walkways, sidewalks, bikeways, and other pedestrian or bicycle connections on
adjacent properties planned or used for commercial, multi-family, public or park use.
c. Walkways shall be at least five feet in paved unobstructed width. Walkways which border
parking spaces shall be at least seven feet wide unless concrete bumpers or curbing and
landscaping or other similar improvements are provided which prevent parked vehicles from
obstructing the walkway. Walkways shall be as direct as possible.
d. Driveway crossings by walkways shall be minimized. Where the walkway system crosses
driveways, parking areas and loading areas, the walkway must be clearly identifiable through
the use of elevation changes, speed bumps, a different paving material or other similar method.
e. To comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act, the primary building entrance and any
walkway that connects a transit stop to building entrances shall have a maximum slope of five
PAGE 4 OF 6 - EXHIBIT "D" TO ORDINANCE 2008-015 (6/30/2008)
percent. Walkways up to eight percent slope are permitted, but are treated as ramps with
special standards for railings and landings.
D. Commercial Development Standards:
1. New commercial buildings shall be sited at the front yard setback line for lots with one frontage,
and at both front yard setback lines for corner lots, and oriented to at least one of these streets,
except in the Sunriver UUC Business Park (BP) District and Town Center (TC) District and the La
Pine UUC Business Park (LPBP) District. The building(s) and any eaves, overhangs or awnings
shall not interfere with the required clear vision area at corners or driveways.
2. To meet the standard in paragraph (1) of this subsection, buildings developed as part of a shopping
complex, as defined by this title, and planned for the interior, rear or non-street side of the complex
may be located and oriented toward private interior streets within the development if consistent
with all other standards of paragraph (1) above and this paragraph. Interior streets used to satisfy
this standard may have on-street parking and shall have sidewalks along the street in front of the
building. Such sidewalks shall connect to existing or future sidewalks on public streets accessing
the site. The master plan for the shopping complex shall demonstrate that at least one half of the
exterior perimeter of the site that abuts each public street, will be developed with buildings meeting
the standards of paragraphs (D)(1) or (D)(3) of this subsection.
3. An increase in the front yard setback may be allowed where the applicant can demonstrate that one
or more of the following factors makes it desirable to site the new building beyond the minimum
street setback:
a. Existing development on the site;
b. Lot configuration;
c. Topography of the lot;
d. Significant trees or other vegetative features that could be retained by allowing a greater setback;
e. Location of driveway access. Such an increase in the front yard shall be the minimum necessary to
accommodate the reason for the increase.
f. Architectural features, driveways, landscaping areas equal to or greater than the depth of the
structure, and outdoor commercial areas, when at least one half of the structure meets the minimum
street setback.
4. Off-street motor vehicle parking for new commercial developments in excess of 10,000 square feet
shall be located at the side or behind the building(s), except in the Sunriver UUC Business Park
(BP) District and Town Center (TC) District. Off-street parking proposed with a shopping
complex, as defined by this title, and intended to serve buildings located in the interior or rear of the
complex may have parking in front of the building provided the overall master plan for the site
satisfies paragraph (2) of this subsection.
