88-353-01 - PURPOSE; APPLICABILITY
88-353-01-A. PURPOSE

3. Large format uses shall be subject to any adopted zoning overlay or special character area design guidelines.
4. Any fence in the front or street-side yard shall be wrought iron or other similar transparent decorative metal fencing and may exceed the height limitations in Section 88-425. Chain-link fencing is not permitted on front or street-side frontages. Fences directly abutting an R or DR district shall be, masonry, wrought iron or other similar decorative metal fencing. Required landscape buffers shall be on the exterior of the fence. The fence may run between buildings to reduce the amount of fencing required.

In addition to 88-353-02-A, the following facade, articulation, and composition requirements shall apply to any building facade located within 100 feet of an R or D district or within 100 feet of a residential building zoned UR or MPD. In the case of a residential building zoned UR or MPD, the distance shall be measured from the external wall of the large format use closest in proximity to the residential building to the closest point of the property line of the property containing the residential building.
1. Architectural Materials. A minimum of 40% of front and street-side facades and a minimum of 20% of side and rear facades shall be comprised of at least two of the following elements. Percentages are calculated as the total building façade area and can be comprised of any combination of the following architectural materials.
a. Exterior colors, finishes and materials other than the primary color or smooth cast-concrete. Acceptable materials may include metal composite panels, stone, wood, brick, glass block, tile, cast metal, cast, split-face CMU, cultured stone, textured or patterned concrete panels, other forms of masonry panels, or similar as determined by the city planning and development director.

2. Alternative compliance plans that differ from the requirements of 88-353-03-A are subject to approval by the city planning and development director. Alternative compliance plans shall render equal or greater screening benefits than those outlined in this section.
Section 6. That Chapter 88, the Zoning and Development Code, is hereby amended by adopting a new Section 88-339, “Data Centers,” said section to read as follows:
88-339 DATA CENTERS
88-339-01 - PURPOSE
The purpose of these standards is to permit data centers in more districts due to their limited land use impact on adjacent properties while also acknowledging that such uses may negatively impact pedestrian-oriented areas of the city due to the relative lack of pedestrian traffic they generate. These standards allow data centers in more districts when the impact is minimized to improve active uses that support the vitality of the public realm adjacent to a building and encourage walk-in traffic.
88-339-02 - IN ALL PERMITTED DISTRICTS
88-339-02-A. Data centers with a continuous gross floor area of more than 500,000 square feet shall be considered a large format use and subject to the requirements of Section 88-353.
88-339-03 - IN B & D DISTRICTS
88-339-03-A. Data centers shall require review and approval of a special use permit.
88-339-03-B. Data centers may not exceed more than 50% of the ground floor gross floor area of any building with street frontage. For the purposes of this section, a building with street frontage is any building located within 50 feet of a street right-of-way line.
88-339-03-C. Data centers shall maintain all transparency requirements of the underlying zone or overlay district.
Section 7. That Chapter 88, the Zoning and Development Code, is hereby amended by adopting a new Section 88-805-05-H, “Data Centers,” said section to read as follows:
88-805-05-H. DATA CENTER
A building dedicated to the storage, management, processing, and/or transmission of digital data, including supporting equipment related to digital data operations.
