City of Vineland Land Use Ordinance Amendment Design Standards for Community Design parking shall have a long-term design; fifty percent short-term design as defined in the following Section. (2) Short term design of bicycle parking facility. Short-term design of bicycle parking facilities shall be high-quality, inverted “U”- type construction. The Planning Board may approve alternative high-quality bicycle parking facilities if they can be shown to: (a) Provide adequate theft protection and security; and (b) Support the bicycle at two points of contact to prevent damage to the bicycle wheels and frame. (3) Long-term design of bicycle parking facility. In addition to the requirements of shortterm design, the bicycle parking spaces for long term parking shall be sheltered from sun and precipitation under an eave, overhang, an independent structure or similar cover. Bicycle parking requirements for long-term and employee parking may be met by providing a bicycle storage room, bicycle lockers, racks, or other secure storage space inside or outside of the building. The Planning Board may approve alternative measures if they meet the intents for visibility, security and weather protection. (4) Bicycle parking facilities shall be located with easy access, near main building entrances, in areas with natural surveillance. Bicycle parking facilities shall be conveniently located with respect to both the road right-of-way and at least one building entrance (e.g., No farther away than the closest vehicle parking space). (5) It is encouraged that bicycle parking facilities are incorporated whenever possible into building design and coordinated with the design of street furniture when it is provided. (6) Bicycle parking should be located in areas that are close to lighting fixtures on the parcel. (7) Areas set aside for bicycle parking shall be clearly marked and reserved for bicycle parking only. H:\VINE\00012\Plans\Ordinance Amendment Revised 05~28~08 ~ Design Standards.doc D-31
City of Vineland Land Use Ordinance Amendment Design Standards for Community Design (8) Bicycle parking shall not interfere with pedestrian passage, and shall not create a hazard to pedestrians. Parking areas shall be located so as to not conflict with vehicle clear sight triangles. J. Reverse frontage requirement for residential lots. Subdivision and site plan design should be arranged so that residential lots abut and have direct driveway access from minor streets, local streets, or minor collector streets. Residential lots abutting higher volume streets should be designed as reverse frontage lots with a landscaped buffer at least twenty-five (25) feet in width along the property line along the higher volume street. The minimum yard requirement from the higher order street shall be increased twenty-five (25) feet and the lot shall be designed with greater depth or width, as applicable, to provided the space for the buffer. If the buffer is planned as a separate open space lot to be held in common ownership, then the minimum yard required for the residential lot shall be measured from the buffer strip lot line. A deed restriction shall be provided for the lot to preclude any future direct vehicular access from the higher volume street. Any driveway on a residential lot which is permitted to take access to a higher volume street shall be designed to permit a "K" turn movement to allow a vehicle to exit the lot without backing into the higher order street. K. Outdoor storage areas. Outdoor storage areas for the storage and sale of seasonal inventory should be permanently defined and screened with walls and/or fences. Materials, colors, trim, details and designs of screening walls and/or fences and the cover should conform to those used as predominant materials and colors of the building. If such areas are to be covered, then the covering should conform to those used as predominant materials and colors on the buildings. L. Stormwater Design Strategy. To the maximum extent possible, the design of development shall rely upon a natural strategy for stormwater management that emphasizes the use of nonstructural measures. To that end, development design shall be arranged to preserve the significant natural features of the site, avoid areas of environmental sensitivity, and minimize negative impacts. Design shall be arranged to protect natural drainage features and vegetation; minimize land disturbance from clearing and grading; minimize soil compaction; reduce the use H:\VINE\00012\Plans\Ordinance Amendment Revised 05~28~08 ~ Design Standards.doc D-32
