The TOD District provides for the development and redevelopment of key parcels of land within 3,500 ft of a MARC Station. The TOD District is intended to encourage the development of multi-use centers combining office and high-density residential development that are located and designed for safe and convenient pedestrian access by commuters using the MARC Trains and other public transit links. For sites of least 50 acres, well-designed multi-use centers combining office, high-density residential development with a diversity of dwelling unit types, and retail uses are encouraged. The requirements of this district, in conjunction with the Route 1 Manual and the vehicular and pedestrian improvements that connect internally and with surrounding developments, will result in development that makes use of the commuting potential of the MARC system, creates attractive employment or multi-use centers, and provides for safe and convenient pedestrian travel.; Many parcels in the TOD District were developed before this district was created. It is not the intent of these requirements to disallow the continued use of sites developed prior to the TOD District. Additionally, because TOD developments are most effective when comprehensively planned for larger parcels of land surrounding a MARC Station, it is neither the intent of these requirements to encourage smaller, piecemeal TOD developments nor disallow the beneficial use of undeveloped TOD District parcels during the period of time prior to a larger TOD development being assembled. The intent of this district will be achieved by bringing sites into compliance with these requirements and the standards of the Route 1 Manual as a mix of residential and nonresidential uses are redeveloped or expanded. Certain light industrial uses or lower density residential units may also be appropriate with the mix of TOD uses if properly located so as to not overly reduce the available land area for the more dense mix of uses at the core.
