About Specific Plan Districts
A “Specific Plan District,” generally known as “SP” zoning, refers to a new type of base zoning district, not an overlay, which is not subject to traditional zoning districts’ development standards. Under SP zoning, design standards established for that specific development are written into the zone change ordinance.
The Specific Plan (SP) District creates a new zoning district that gives developers additional flexibility upfront and gives Council members and their constituents greater certainty as to the resulting project.
For the developer, the SP District has the highest level of flexibility for the design of the development.
- The SP District is not subject to the traditional zoning districts’ design standards.
- Instead, urban design elements are determined for the specific development and are written into the zone change ordinance, which becomes law. Some elements that can be written into the zone change include: height and size of buildings, setbacks, buffers, signage, and materials.
For the Council member and their constituents, since the urban design elements are spelled out in the zone change ordinance and become law, there is a greater degree of certainty as to the final product.
- The Council member can negotiate with the developer to add conditions, requirements or limitations.
- The Council member can place a timeline on the completion of the entire development and/or phases of the development.
- The developer will propose the details of the development plan and then work with the Planning Department, fellow Metro Departments, the Council member(s) and their constituents to reach a workable compromise on the design of the development and the timeline for construction.
