The purpose of this zone is to promote the development of mixed use nodes at key intersections on Highway 99 (Hwy 99) generally located at bus rapid transit (BRT) stops, as envisioned by the Highway 99 subarea plan. Development in these nodes may consist of a combination of pedestrian-oriented retail that serves the local residential population, region-serving retail, multifamily residential development and/or a combination thereof (mixed use). Businesses and residences in this zone will be within a pedestrian-oriented environment designed to cater to transit, walking, and bicycle traffic. Mixed use development can be in the form of vertical mixed use (residential on top of commercial) or horizontal mixed use (residential adjacent to commercial). Development standards and design guidelines will define building and spatial relationships, with particular emphasis on the design of pedestrian spaces, linkages between development, Highway 99, BRT stations, and related pedestrian facilities and amenities.
