[COMPREHENSIVE <strong>PLAN</strong>] 2025<br />

Neighborhood Centers should be located adjacent to or within walking<br />

distance of schools whenever possible. The maximum floor area ratio (FAR)<br />

for each non-residential development within the Neighborhood Center shall<br />

not exceed 70%. Amendment 04-2, November 2004.<br />

The quantification of uses within the Master Planned Community<br />

Neighborhood Center designation shall be consistent with the following:<br />

Minimum Maximum<br />

Land Use Required Permitted<br />

Office 0% 40%<br />

Commercial/Retail 50% 80%<br />

Public Parks/Open Space 5% 30%<br />

School Sites<br />

School sites within the MPC are designated on the Public Facilities Map. The<br />

final location of school sites shall be determined during the development<br />

review process. To promote a „campus‟ effect and encourage the maximum<br />

use of facilities, middle and high schools should be located contiguously.<br />

Whenever possible, all schools should be located adjacent or close to<br />

Neighborhood Centers and adjacent to public facilities such as parks, libraries,<br />

and civic uses.<br />

Specialized Open Space<br />

Each development within the MPC land use should include specialized open<br />

space in the form of squares, greens and neighborhood parks whose frequent<br />

use is encouraged through placement and design. The level of service for<br />

neighborhood parks is set in the table below. Specialized open space shall be<br />

calculated during development review of site plans. Retention facilities when<br />

designed as a functional amenity, wetlands, and natural water bodies may<br />

constitute up to 25% of the required open space. When possible, the natural<br />

terrain, drainage and vegetation of the area should be preserved within parks<br />

or open space.<br />

Neighborhood parks within the MPC shall be equipped with playground<br />

equipment, picnic areas, and a multi-use playfield, and may also include<br />

basketball courts, tennis courts, or other recreational uses.<br />

Recreation<br />

The MPC shall include a minimum of 5% of the developable land designated<br />

as Community Parks. Community Park locations within the MPC areas will be<br />

designated during development review. Determination of need will be based<br />

on the LOS standard identified below.<br />

Community Parks within the MPC are located near major streets and should<br />

offer a variety of programs and facilities such as baseball fields, swimming<br />

pools, and tennis courts and are intended to serve residents within a three-mile<br />
