II. DOWNTOWN RESIDENTIAL

OVERLAY DISTRICT (DROD)

AREAS

The Downtown Residential Overlay District (DROD) is divided into seven (7) distinct Areas, each
of which has unique objectives for new development and substantial renovations to existing
properties. The Area boundaries are based on several factors, including:

• The periods in which development historically occurred
• Original subdivision boundaries
• Existing building forms and scale
• Existing architectural characteristics
• Comprehensive Plan objectives
• Downtown Plan objectives
• Community input

The Area boundaries also consider the degree to which an area’s character should be maintained
or transformed as redevelopment occurs. An intent statement is provided below for each Area.
Each intent statement broadly describes the desired future character for the Area. The map in
Figure 2.1 identifies the DROD Area boundaries.
