This category designates areas programmed for industrial land uses, including manufacturing, concrete plants and other extractive industries, junkyards/ scrap yards, and outdoor storage uses. These uses tend to have greater impacts than the commercial service uses, and may require additional buffering or separation from nearby uses. Some of these uses are dependent on rail for freight movement, and others require convenient thoroughfare or interstate access for truck deliveries and shipments. Most of these areas are zoned I-1 and I-2. Railyards, power plants, and similar uses are also included in this designation.

This designation is used on large sites where land use planning studies are now taking place, such as Dorothea Dix, or other areas where detailed land use planning is required in the future.

The Future Land Use Map includes another category to identify areas where the future land use pattern has yet to be determined. These areas are outlined with a dashed line, labeled, and left “blank”(white) on the map, indicating the precise land use pattern was still under study at the time of Plan adoption. The text of the plan provides further detail.

Principal uses are office parks, free-standing office buildings or corporate headquarters, banks, research and development uses, hotels, and ancillary service businesses and retail uses that support the office economy.

The category recognizes the area’s role as the heart of the city, supporting a mix of high-intensity office, retail, housing, US government, 64 institutional, visitor-serving, cultural, and entertainment uses. Multiple zoning districts apply within the CBD, corresponding to the different character and vision for its various neighborhoods. The maximum residential density in this area would be 320 units per acre. The closest conforming zoning district to this designation is “Bus”(Business) with DOD (Downtown AP Overlay District). E

This category applies to medium-sized shopping centers and larger pedestrian-oriented retail districts such as Cameron Village. Typical commercial uses include supermarkets, larger drug stores, department stores and variety stores, clothing stores, banks, offices, restaurants, movie theaters, hotels, and similar uses that draw from multiple neighborhoods. Development intensities could be higher than in Neighborhood Center areas, with mid-rise buildings as well as low rise buildings. Where residential development occurs, ground floor retail would be encouraged and minimum density standards might be applied. Densities would generally be in the Medium range (14-28 UPA); although High Density (up to about 70 units per acre) would be appropriate around proposed transit stations and WAalong transit-intensive corridors.

oriented retail districts. The service area of these districts is generally less than one mile. Typical uses would include corner stores or convenience stores, restaurants, bakeries, small supermarkets or drug stores, dry cleaners, video stores, and similar uses that serve the immediately surrounding neighborhood. While this is primarily a commercial category, mixed use projects with upper story housing would also be supported by this designation. Most of the areas mapped MORRISVILLE with this designation are currently zoned NB (Neighborhood Business) or SC (Shopping Center). Where residential development complements commercial uses, it would generally be in the LowMedium to Medium density range (less than 28 units per acre).

This category is generally mapped over areas zoned “RR”(or areas in the ETJ/ USA with rural residential land use designations and rural County zoning) where intensification to more urban uses is not expected due to watershed constraints and existing fragmented parcel patterns. Rural Residential areas are generally developed with “ranchettes,”hobby farms, estates, large-lot subdivisions, or clustered housing with large common open space areas. The intent of this designation is to preserve the rural character of these areas and achieve compatible resource conservation objectives such as watershed conservation and tree protection. Overall densities in these areas would be less than one unit per acre, although clustered housing on large tracts could result in small pockets of more densely developed land.
