City of Ferndale

PROJECT LOCATION:

Citywide – Properties zoned Mixed Use Commercial in the City of Ferndale.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

The City recognizes that the future vitality of the Mixed-Use Commercial Zone will rely upon a combination of residential and non-residential uses which should remain in-balance through market fluctuations. In order to preserve opportunities for non-residential uses in a market that is driven by residential development, the City proposes to require that developments reserve space for non-residential uses in the Mixed-Use Commercial Zone. Staff proposes to require a minimum amount of non-residential uses within each development based on a certain percentage of the lineal property frontage facing the public right of way or the private access roads if no right of way exists.

The Staff Report is available here: https://ferndale.civicweb.net/filepro/documents/13072

REQUESTED ACTION(S):

The City of Ferndale requests approval of amendments to the Ferndale Municipal Code.
