Woodbridge Design Guidelines Chapter 5-Woodbridge Design Guidelines SECTION 5.2 NEW DEVELOPMENT 5.2.1 Lot Design-General: New construction for projects on vacant parcels shall be subject to the following requirements: Building Location: Buildings should be located toward the front of the property with front building facades at or near the back of the sidewalk. Special guidelines apply to non-residential development on parcels with frontage along the following roadways: • Lower Sacramento Road, north ofAugusta Street. Consistent with existing development, front building facades shall be constructed at the street front property line and aligned with the front facades of the buildings on adjacent properties. The front wall shall be parallel to the front property line. • Lower Sacramento Road, south of Augusta Street. In an effort to establish visual continuity with development north of Augusta Street and an improved pedestrian environment, a minimum of thirty percent(30%) of the lot width shall have structural improvements within three (3) feet of the front property line. Structural improvements may include a facade of the primary building or substantial extension thereof(e.g., trellis,porte-cochere). Improvements shall be parallel to the front property line. Building placement should be designed to minimize the visual separation between structures. Special guidelines apply to non- residential development on parcels with frontage along the following roadways: • Lower Sacramento Road, north of Augusta Street. Consistent with existing development,new buildings shall be designed so the first floor extends the entire width of the parcel, with no separation between buildings (See Figure 1). However, landscape and hardscape features may be used to establish a comparable visual and physical boundary of space by defining the sidewalk edge (e.g., fencing for outdoor seating, trellis/arbor).
