18.19.010: PURPOSE AND INTENT:
A. Purpose. The Highway Corridor (HC) and Village (V) zones are established to
implement the City of Chubbuck Comprehensive Plan Chapter 16: Chubbuck Village
Specific Plan for the urban gathering place in the City of Chubbuck.
1. This chapter focuses on the pedestrian environment within a mix of compatible
land uses, rather than traditional zoning which often neglects pedestrian safety and
disconnects people and businesses fiom one another.
2. Together the zones are a form -based code (FBC) regulating first how building
placement and basic design features relate to the street and improve the pedestrian
environment, with less emphasis on land use restriction and separation.
3. FBC standards produce more predictable results in the building and
redevelopment of properties and the desired physical form described in the
Chubbuck Village Specific Plan for Chubbuck.
B. Intent. The intent of the zones is to farther the policies of the Chubbuck Village
Specific Plan to a greater extent than would a traditional Euclidean zone to:
1. Promote the public health, safety, and welfare;
2. Create functionally integrated developments that allow for a more efficient and
cost-effective provision of public services;
3. Promote decreased suburban sprawl, under -developed sites, and agricultural land
development on the ex -urban fringe;
4. Promote increased community interactions via development standards which
emphasize pedestrian and bicycle modalities;
5. Encourage a variety of housing types and affordability that accommodate
residents' needs through different stages of life;
6. Establish reasonable design standards for development and redevelopment within
the zone to ensure that the built environment is sustainably desirable and stable, that
property values are stable and maintained, and to enhance the image of the City of
Chubbuck; and
7. Establish standards that allow for additional creativity in promoting and providing
sites and structures that accommodate multiple land uses.

18.19.060: DESIGN AND FRONTAGE:
A. These standards focus on form and function of the public realm to a greater extent
than traditional zoning which aims primarily to separate land uses. It is not the intent
of this ordinance to restrict creative building and site designs. The architectural
standards reflect the need to create buildings that enhance the public realm, which are
compatible with surrounding (current and planned) structures and spaces, and that
create an appealing visual interest without being overly prescriptive.
Of particular interest is ground -level architecture and design that pedestrians and
others visiting the Chubbuck Village area find the streets and pedestrian corridors
interesting and engaging, factors which encourage walking, particularly in the Village
Zone. This can be accomplished through elements such as store front windows with
retail displays, outdoor dining areas, courtyards, art displays, horizontal expression
lines, and placing restrictions on unbroken fagade appearances, etc. Table 19.1:
Design and Frontage Standards lists standards for the two Chubbucic Village zones.

following features:
1. Partial walls, fences of metal or other secure material, and/or landscape beds shall
follow the right-of-way boundary line between the courtyard or patio entry and the
adjacent building or side property line to maintain the BTL (see Figure 19.6;
Courtyards and Patios in Relation to the Build -to Line).
2. Each building elevation facing the courtyard or patio on the same parcel must
include at least one public entry,
3. Courtyards and patios must include some pervious surface such as paving bricks
or planting beds,
C. Building fagades along an existing or planned pedestrian corridors per the adopted
Chubbuck Village Specific Plan shall meet the design and frontage standards of this
chapter.
D. Horizontal expression lines above the first -floor ceiling help define the pedestrian
sphere with a break in color and texture. They are required on all fagades facing a
street or pedestrian corridor. The horizontal expression line may be created with a
stringcourse, belt course, lintels, etc.
E. Structures currently existing at the time of this code adoption shall be allowed to
remain in their current form and function, however:
1. Rehabilitations such as re -roofing, replacing windows, etc. which do not affect the
external dimensions of the structure or make changes to the exterior of the building
do not require compliance with the design and frontage standards of this chapter.
2. Rehabilitation plans which do not affect the external dimensions of the structure
but that replace the siding, cladding, or other non-structural fagades visible from the
existing public realm, or from a planned public reahn such as a future street or
pedestrian corridor, must be presented by the building owner for approval by the
design review committee demonstrating that the project will meet as many of the
design and frontage standards of this chapter as are feasible.
3. Horizontal and/or vertical additions to existing buildings require that the addition
be constructed to meet the design standards of this chapter.
If the value of the new addition will exceed the value of the existing building, as
determined by a professional appraiser, county assessor, or other party as accepted
by the applicant and design review committee, the entire building shall be brought
into compliance with the various design standards of this Chapter. The building
owner must present plans for approval by the design review committee
demonstrating that the fagades of the existing building will meet as many of the
design and frontage standards of this chapter as are feasible.
4. Additions to existing structures or expansion of businesses on parcels abutting the
railroad right-of-way are exempt from the design and fiontage standards of this
chapter if they are not clearly visible from the adjacent sidewalk on Burley Dr.
Alternatively, if such an addition or expansion would otherwise be visible from the
adjacent sidewalk, improvements to the property frontage that enhance the
pedestrian atmosphere and/or meet design and frontage standards of this chapter
may be approved by the design review committee.
18.19.070: LAND AND BUILDING USES:
A. Pedestrian Emphasis. The Highway Corridor and Village zones place more
emphasis on the pedestrian experience through the placement and height of buildings
to frame the street, and enhanced sidewalks, walkways, and landscaping. The
buildings that line the street are less restricted in their use than traditional zoning,
creating a more interesting and livable atmosphere. See Table 19.2: Land and
Building Uses for specifics on land and building uses that are permitted, conditionally
permitted, not allowed, or have limitations.

different land use group as outlined in Table 19,2: Land and Building Uses above, the
new land use must be permitted in conformance with this chapter.
18.19.080: LANDSCAPING STANDARDS:
A. The following standards for landscaping'in the Highway Corridor and Village
zones provide for healthy and aesthetic landscaped frontage areas to carry the
pedestrian experience and attractiveness beyond the street (see Table 193:
Landscaped Area Requirements Outside Public Right -of --Way). Improvements listed
below will shade larger expanses of pavement and reduce heat island effect. They are
also designed to improve the aesthetics and environment within parking areas, and to
decrease the visual impact of vehicular areas (and undeveloped areas) from sidewalk
and street.
B. Standards apply to:
L All new development;
2. Physical changes and improvements to vehicular areas (such as expansion, new
driveway, or new landscape beds (excluding maintenance such as resurfacing or
restriping). In such cases the landscaping standards take precedence over parking
space requirements; and
3. Alteration to an existing principle building that results in an increase of greater
than or equal to 25% gross floor area.

18.19.090: PARKING STANDARDS:
A. Parking Standards for highway Corridor and Village zones are designed to ensure
appropriate levels of parking, loading, etc. for a variety of uses (see Table 19.4.•
Parking Area Standards). The standards provide flexibility for small site development
and maximize on -street and shared parking. These measures will help reduce
fragmented single -purposed parking, and provide the ability to, and promote, park-
once
arkonce and enjoy Village streets on foot or by bicycle. Standards apply to:
1. All new construction of primary or accessory buildings, or expansion of less than
or equal to 25%.
2. New or reconstructed parking facilities, including driveways and loading areas.
3. Improvements to existing vehicular areas, including enlargement or
reconfiguration.
4, Demolition or destruction of main building on site.
B. General Regulations:
1. Parking spaces and drive aisle standards:
a.. Standard spaces must be at least 9 feet wide and 18 feet long.
b. Parallel parking spaces must be at least 8 feet wide and 20 feet long.
c. Drive aisles must be at least 20 feet wide. Exceptions for 1 -way drive aisle
width may be granted between rows of angled, parallel, or mixed angled/parallel
parking.
2.Officelprofessional is based on net leasable floor space — common areas,
restrooms, etc., are excluded if the building/site includes a mixture of nonresidential
uses the combined total of required spaces may be reduced to 75%,
3. No off-street parking allowed in front of main building.
4. As with requirements for automobile parking, secure bicycle parking shall also be
provided.

C. Parking Requirements; The standards in Table 19.5: Auto and Bicycle Parking
Minimum Requirements, below, are reduced from requirements in other areas of the
city, are intended to decrease chances that the Chubbuck Village area will be "over -
parked," and decrease the amount of land consumed by parking rather than active land
uses and buildings.
1. Sites with permanent or long-term shared parking agreements are eligible for
reduced parking requirements. Off-site non-residential parking is permitted per the
following site standards:
a. Must be within 800 feet and not across Yellowstone Avenue from site.
b. Must be subject of long-term lease approval or permanently dedicated,
2. On -street parking stalls adjacent to a property may be included in the non-
residential parking spaces requirement. One third of on -street parking stalls within
three hundred feet (300 feet) of a public building entrance (door or courtyard) or
employee entrance may also be included in the parking requirement.
3. Where uses locate in Chubbuck Village which exceed the number of street
parking stalls fronting the property, the city may require that monies be collected
towards the creation of parking in a common parking area or garage in or near the
district.
4. As with other areas of the city, the Chubbuck City Council may consider
deviations in parking requirements on a project -by -project basis.

18.19.100: SIGNAGE STANDARDS;
A. Purpose: Signage Standards for the Highway Corridor and Village Zones
strengthen the economic and aesthetic appeal of the area through elevating sign
standards and regulations. The visual quality, appropriate scale, and effective display
of signs contribute to the identity, brand, and atmosphere of zones. Specifically;
1. Provide the public, property owners, and businesses an opportunity for safe and
effective means of communication, reducing visual distractions and obstructive
views from potentially creating safety hazards for motorists, pedestrians, and
bicyclists.
2. Coordinate the location and type of signage with existing and proposed street
frontage landscaping in a manner that that contributes to the character and economic
health of the zones and individual projects and investments, and enhances the
aesthetic quality of the area.
3. Provide clear and understandable regulations that enable the fair and consistent
enforcement of these standards.
B. General Standards and Requirements:
1. New or Reconstructed Signs. All new signs and stttiictural improvements to
existing signs shall comply with these regulations.
2. Change in Use for Single Business Signage. For signage serving one business,
whenever the existing use is changed to a new use requiring any change of signage
content or face, the new sign, face, and content shall comply with these regulations.
Sign area. The sign area shall be measured from the outside edge of the sign face.
a. The area of a sign consisting of two sides shall be computed by adding together
the total area(s) of both sides.
b. The total area of a sign with more than two faces shall be calculated using the
area of the largest 2 faces.
c. The total area of a 3-dimensional sign structure shall be calculated by measuring
the profile of the sign as 1 side and doubling the figure to calculate the total area,
d. See Table 19.6; Sign Standards by Type and Zone for specific requirements.
4. Prohibited signs. The following sign types are prohibited in the Highway Corridor
and Village Zones:
a. Off -premise signs.
b. External Temporary signs other than A-Frame/Sandwich Board signs.
c. Signs with moving, spinning, animated, or flashing parts, including wind -driven
signs and running lights.
d. Electronic message displays, electronic reader boards, and video displays.
e. Inflated or balloon signs.
f. Billboards are prohibited throughout the city.
C. Signs Requirements by Type and Zone: Various sign types and sizes are allowed in
the Highway Corridor and Village Zones, depending on the zone and building fagade
(see Table 19,6- Sign Standards by Type and Zone).
