NCOR
Neighborhood Commercial Office Residential District
The purpose of the Neighborhood Commercial Office Residential District (NCOR) is to promote the development of mixed-use, pedestrian-friendly development in neighborhood areas at a scale consistent with small neighborhood uses. This district provides for the intermixing of neighborhood commercial, office, and residential land uses. This neighborhood-scale mixed-use district will help reduce the need for excessive parking and lay the foundation for an increase in the use of public transit and pedestrian access. Flexibility is the key to this district, allowing a mix of uses based on the ability of the applicant to be creative. The NCOR District will unify these varied uses through design. Elements such as limited front yard setbacks; two- or three-story buildings with active retail and service uses on the ground floors; on-street parking, where appropriate, and off-street parking on the side or rear of buildings will be encouraged in this district through the use of design standards.
