DISTRICT DESIGN GUIDELINES SUMMARY to be flexible and they should be applied only as site requirements allow. The intended character of each land use district is described on the previous pages. This section is a summary of the district design guidelines, quantified in standards typical for planning and urban design professionals. These design guidelines are in addition to underlying Town of Madison, Dane County, City of Madison, City of Fitchburg and \X'isconsin Department of Transportation regulations. These guidelines describe the intensity and character of each district when it is completely redeveloped (at "build out"). Interim redevelopment projects should meet the intent of the guidelines and contribute to ultimate build out character within each district. However, each interim project will likely not be able to achieve many of these guidelines independently. These guidelines are intended It is noted that the recommended development intensity on each redevelopment site may not be possible without public financial assistance, such as tax increment financing or other sources. To accommodate this plan's redevelopment intent, changes are necessary to the current Dane County and City of Fitchburg zoning districts. These District Design Guidelines apply to the t\\-'O districts that are generally within a 1/ 4-mile walk from the planned rail transit station. Redevelopment in these districts will be driven more by visibility from USH 14 and the Beltline and the rail transit station. The intent of this plan is that redevelopment result in a functional Transit Oriented Development. The district design guidelines on this page should be considered requirements for each redevelopment project.
