Zoning (Part II)

PMPD 926

7 AIA HSW LUs. All architecture forcibly impacts communities on every scale. Some build communities, some harm them. This seminar takes an in-depth look at the various aspects of zoning and its impact on architecture and the community. This course studies how zoning laws are created in order to minimize any negative aspect to the public health and examines scalar impacts on both small and large architectural plans. Areas of discussion include a detailed discussion on bulk, use, sky exposure plane, floor area ratios, and set-back requirements for rear and side yards that impact ventilation and light/ air for communities. We will also analyze how the public interest is balanced with private interest to safe-guard infrastructure needs of residential and commercial projects; show how the governmental review process is an important factor in maintaining/preserving public safety; and review the variance and process and how the community is able to respond to an architectural project and comment in public hearings and reviews. This class is intended as a sequel to the introductory course, but can stand alone for attendees already familiar with the basic zoning concepts. Topics include: brief overview of the history and evolution of zoning; technical aspects of zoning; zoning districts; use groups; bulk rules; floor area ratio; sky exposure plane; set backs; yard requirements; zoning requirements that preserve light and air; special zoning districts and their relationship to the needs of specific communities; City Planning Commission authorizations and special permits; how the zoning is amended, map and text changes; Board of Standards and appeals variances and special permits; Uniform Land Use Review procedure, the governmental and community review process; City Environmental Quality Review procedure; and identifying and assessing the potential impacts of discretionary zoning actions.
