District Center 4.4.�.� healthcare

•

A hospital and a medical office campus will provide a concentrated job base to the District Center. The hospital will be a comprehensive ambulatory and acute care facility. The ambulatory care will include primary and specialty care medical office space, outpatient surgery center imaging center, satellite cancer center laboratory and urgent care services. Impatient care includes emergency services, intensive care, medical and surgical care, a birthing center, impatient surgical services and a helipad. Primary parking will be concentrated in a parking structure next to the Hospital. Overflow and employee parking will be in parking structures on the adjacent medical office building campus.

The medical office building campus adjacent to the hospital is envisioned as providing primary and specialty office space for the expanded needs of physician services needed near the hospital and as part of the Preserve Community. Three to four story buildings that both treat the street with an urban edge and create a tranquil courtyard on the interior will share parking in designated parking structures.

District Center 4.4.�.� Institution (University)

•

A University campus comprising approximately 150,000 sq. ft will provide an institutional component to the District Center. The university should be an urban campus comprised of smaller buildings that create an urban edge to the street and open space while at the same time creating a “university square” in the center. Parking will be concentrated in a parking structure. While the square is the center of campus the University is seen as a valuable contributor to the social engagement of the district center being within walking distance to the plaza, theatre, market, hospital and living opportunities for both staff and students.

District Center 4.4.�.� retail and Marketplace

•

The retail and market place blocks define the northern edge of the District Plaza.The market place is a full service market selling and buying good and services from local farms, neighborhood gardens and the greater Stockton area. The market should address the plaza corner and street edges in a prominent but appropriate urban manner. Street edges should be activated with market oriented commercial activities that can activate the street. Surface parking with PV Solar Thermal Panels that shade and screen cars is located behind the market.

The mixed use retail block is envisioned as a mixed of uses. Boutique retail, and dining establishments on the ground floor will activate the street and courtyard between the buildings. The courtyard will be a unique and different environmental experience as compared to the urban street edge and District Plaza. Four stories of residential above the retail will provide residents and urban living experience within walking distance to all activities in the District Center. Parking is concentrated in a parking structure on the northern edge of the block.

Passive solar design principles shall be incorporated into all building designs. Building widths should be narrow with operable windows to allow for natural ventilation and daylighting. Horizontal and vertical shading and daylighting devices shall be used based on building orientation.7.) Roof tops shall be dedicated to PV panels and rain harvesting.8.) Buildings shall be designed to contribute to a zero carbon footprint.9.) Signs and banners shall not project further than six feet or 50% of the public right-of-way width whichever is less. A 10’-0” clearance above the sidewalk is required for all signage.10.) No signs shall be placed higher than the lower sill on the second floor or the third floor of the building whichever is lower.11.) Only one fin sign is permitted per retail tenant. Corner tenants are allowed two signs.12.) Signage on awnings is permitted in lieu of projecting signs13.) Signage shall not interfere with the transparency of the building façade.

4.5.3 Neighborhood Centers

Local serving retail and offices, multi-use com-munity center, a community park, a transit stop,and multi-family housing above ground levelwill estabish the neigborhood Center as a pedestrian-intensive core with rich diversity of activities. Mixed-use buildings at the neighborhood center will share the following design principles:

• Buiding will be built to or near the front property line to activate the street activities and delineate strong spatial definition to the street.

• Retails, office, and community center will oc cupy the ground floor. Cafes and restaurants are encouraged to provide seatings along the pedestrian walk to encourage social interinterac tions and enhance the pedestrian character of the street.

• A well proportioned retail/office/pubic use and residential use is desired to create a vibrant day and night environment.

high Density

The characteristics of the high density neighborhoods are defined by a vibrant urban street life with proximity to the district center, retail, commercial, jobs, transit and educational facilities. The transit corridors and primary streets are defined by mixed use buildings with ground floor retail and residential above achieving densities of 50 du/ac.Residential densities of 35 du/ac create the remaining urban blocks. Individual block and building design shall support the One Planet Living and Eco-Block principles inherent in the master plan concept.

All buildings in the high density neighborhoods will share the following design principles;• Parking will be concentrated in designated central block parking structures. Buildings should not account for any on site residential or commercial parking.• All buildings shall be designed with façade characteristics that distinguish it from neighboring structures. Long façade planes should be modulated to create an articulated urban street edge.• Ground floor retail and commercial uses shall be oriented towards the public right-of-way. All storefronts shall have a minimum of 60% glazing of which 75% shall be transparent. Signs and banners shall not project further than six feet or 50% of the public right-of-way width whichever is less. A 10’-0” clearance above the sidewalk is required for all signage.• No signs shall be placed higher than the lower sill on the second floor.• Only one fin sign is permitted per retail tenant. Corner tenants are allowed two signs.• Signage on awnings is permitted in lieu of projecting signs• Signage shall not interfere with the transparency of the building façade.• All residential dwelling units are required to have access and primary exposure to a street, alley or open space.• All buildings are required to integrate their recycling and garbage facilities within the building and shall not be visible from the public right-of-way.• Passive solar design principles shall be incorporated into all building designs. Building widths should be narrow with operable windows to allow for natural ventilation and daylighting. Horizontal and vertical shading and daylighting devices shall be used based on building orientation.• Roof tops shall be dedicated to PV panels, rain harvesting and green roofs.• Buildings shall be designed to contribute to a zero carbon footprint.• Townhouse units shall provide a 3-5 foot vertical elevation change form the street level in order to provide separation but keep physical connection to the street.





residential Use

Medium Density

The medium density neighborhoods shall be consistent in character with the higher density residential neighborhoods. Building design shall define a vibrant pedestrian oriented urban street. Residents will be within walking distance of retail, commercial, jobs, transit and educational facilities. Residential densities of 35 du/ac can be achieved in the High Density district while 20 du/ac is medium density neighborhoods. Individual block and building design shall support the One Planet Living and Eco-Block principles inherent in the master plan concept.

All buildings in the medium density neighborhoods will share the following design principles;

• Parking in the high density district will be concentrated in designated central block parking structures. Buildings should not account for any on site residential parking. Parking in the medium density district shall be incapsulated within the individual building design.• All buildings shall be designed with façade characteristics that distinguish it from neighboring structures. Long façade planes should be modulated to create an articulated urban street edge.• All residential dwelling units are required to have access and primary exposure to a street, alley or open space.• All buildings are required to integrate their recycling and garbage facilities within the building and shall not be visible from the public right-of-way.• Passive solar design principles shall be incorporated into all building designs. Building widths should be narrow with operable windows to allow for natural ventilation and daylighting. Horizontal and vertical shading and daylighting devices shall be used based on building orientation.• Roof tops shall be dedicated to PV panels and rain harvesting.• Buildings shall be designed to contribute to a zero carbon footprint.• Townhouse units shall provide a 3-5 foot vertical elevation change form the street level in order to provide separation but keep physical connection to the street.





residential Use

Low Density

The low density neighborhoods are envisioned as a mixture of building types with densities of up to 10 du/ac creating a pedestrian friendly urban residential street. Residents will be within walking distance of a neighborhood center, transit and community facilities. One Planet Living and Eco-Block principles shall be inherent in individual block and building design.

All buildings in the low density neighborhoods will share the following design principles;

• Parking in the low density district will be contained within each residential home or community.• All buildings shall be designed with façade modulation that provides visual interest and expressed individuality. • All ground floor residential dwelling units are required to have access from a street, alley or open space. • Multi-family buildings are required to integrate their recycling and garbage facilities within the building and shall not be visible from the public right-of-way.• Passive solar design principles shall be incorporated into all building designs. Building widths should be narrow with operable windows to allow for natural ventilation and daylighting. Horizontal and vertical shading and daylighting devices shall be used based on building orientation.• Roof tops shall be dedicated to PV panels and rain harvesting.• Buildings shall be designed to contribute to a zero carbon footprint.• Residential units shall provide a 3-5 foot vertical elevation change form the street level in order to provide separation but keep physical connection to the street.
